TOWERS.net has a blog post about this project and 705 East. Their new project posts often get posted shortly after new project info is posted on SSP. ;)

The Planning Commission takes up the zoning change request Tuesday 06/27. Staff recommends approval. There is no new building info, just better maps. The 705 East zoning change request is still pending but will be on the block just west of Sabine.

Great find. It's just a vision, but a nice vision at that. The site plan was CC Rejected months ago and has not been updated. I don't know why one was filed if there was no specific project lined up.

I dig it.
|
Yep. Something like that would be an excellent contrast to the Alexan.
|
It's like a shorter 56 leonard
|
That looks to be only around 400 feet, maybe even a bit less. 45 floors would suggest at least 450 feet and probably pushing 500. I really like that design. I would love for Austin to get something like that. And please, keep the greenery on it.

I think this particular design might be a little more than just a sketch-rendering vision. Remember our Gensler friend George Blume, well through his Instagram you can find another Gensler architect named Gerardo Gandy and check out the tower in the far left corner. Had actually meant to post this in the update thread as this looked like a design we hadn't seen before. The second I saw this sketch, I remembered it. There's also another model that doesn't remind me of anything that's surfaced... in the back and on the right side.

I feel like an idiot just now, I don't recognize ANY of those buildings.

There are some Domain buildings there, a couple 3rd + Shoals, 600 Guad and this one. There appears to be an Austin Proper model even though that's not a Gensler product. The one I don't know about it the tall one under the sitter's toes.

The one beneath his toes could be the old design for the last block of the green water development viewed as if from the northwest.
