Completed in 2010, The Austonian is the tallest building in Austin, Texas. At 56 stories it houses ~175 luxury residences. The approximate cost of the project is reported to be $250MM. The project was put together by local developers, Terry Mitchell and Benchmark Development. Construction was completed by the Spanish firm, Grupo Villar Mir.
You can easily spot the building, located on Congress Ave between 2nd and 3rd Street. Two blocks from Lady Bird Lake, two blocks from the 2nd Street Retail District, three blocks from the Warehouse District, the Austonian’s location is outstanding. For years this property was nothing more than an overflow parking lot for visitors to the Warehouse District.
Asking prices range from high $400s to over $8,000,000.
