Austin & San Antonio from space





In this picture San Antonio is to the left and Austin is on the right. The blue dot in the middle is several lasers pointing at the space station.

University of Texas infill

Bandera Quaters 8st. T.O
image hosted on flickr


This is typical infill going up across the West Campus area. For those who are not familiar with UT, West Campus is a highly dense area that is consetrated by students who go to UT. West Campus has a radius of 2.5 mile, It's population density is 10,000 ppsm making it the most dense area in Texas. Though the area is in a boom now so I wouldn't be surpised to see in the next 10 yrs double to 20,000 ppsm.

Boom rundown
21st. & Pearl 6st. U/C



Grand Marc 5st. Almost completed


Longhorn Lux 3st. Completed


Circle West 6st. Completed

Amid apartment boom, work starts on 36-story tower

Quote:
By Shonda Novak
Monday, Dec, 17, 2012

In the latest sign of the ongoing apartment building boom in Central Texas, developers broke ground this week on a 36-story tower that will add 358 luxury units downtown when it opens in 2014.

In addition, two other apartment projects are due to start soon downtown. And just south of downtown, two more multifamily projects recently started construction.

The newest downtown project to start is the Bowie, which is being developed by Austin-based Endeavor Real Estate Group and the Lynd Co., based in San Antonio. Along with apartments, the project — on Bowie Street near West Fifth — will include 40,985 square feet of office space and 3,890 square feet of restaurant space, said Jamil Alam, a managing principal with Endeavor.

Endeavor and Lynd are not disclosing a pricetag for the project, which Alam said is expected to open in the third quarter of 2014.

Other upscale apartment towers under construction downtown include a second phase of Gables Park Plaza (222 units in an 18-story tower); the Whitley, which will have 277 units in a 16-story tower; and SkyHouse, a $67 million project that will feature 320 apartments in a 23-story skyscraper on Rainey Street.

Two projects due to break ground soon are a 24-story tower with 221 slated to rise at West Seventh and Rio Grande streets, and StreetLights at Barton Springs, 300 units in a 19-story tower to be built near the Hyatt hotel.
