Building Description

Completed in 2010, The Austonian is the tallest building in Austin, Texas. At 56 stories it houses ~163 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.

Austin Lofts For Sale

If you’re looking for an Austin loft for sale, you need not look further than downtown. Austin has seven residential buildings with open spaces that best reflect genuine “loft style” living. That is, these buildings are either adaptive reuse buildings and/or have open floor plans, often with exposed brick work, duct work, and concrete floors. Austin’s downtown lofts are all unique in location, character, and price.

If you are seeking that authentic, raw, creative style loft consider Avenue Lofts, Brazos Lofts, or the historic Brown Building. If you are seeking something newer, or a more refined space with soaring ceilings and lots of natural light, consider the Austin City Lofts and Plaza Lofts. The Sabine on 5th condos provide soaring ceilings (up to 13 feet) and concrete floors, while hiding the duct work.

Before clicking on the building links below to see what is for sale in each building, remember you can use our comprehensive Austin condo search to add more variables to your condo or loft search.
