Downtown Austin Blog has learned that the Legacy On The Lake apartment high rise will undergo rebranding as “Windsor On The Lake”, or to something similar. Windsor Communities has purchased a controlling interest in the Rainey Street tower from Legacy Partners, and within the next couple of weeks we should expect to see new signage. Completed in 2008, Legacy On The Lake is a 187 unit LEED certified building.

At least “Legacy on the Lake” has alliteration.
I like it sounds British to me… Cheerio:)
While the current name is unremarkable, the proposed name is equally dull and confusing since it is not even close to Windsor Street in West Austin. The new name just sounds pretentious, which is not what Austin is or aspires to be.
