My last post in the update thread about the "Capstone Hotel" as well as my last post in the Skyloft thread about it possibly changing its name were actually for this new project. It's called "22 West Residential" and will be 18-stories. There will be four underground parking levels, and the first two floors will be for "student gathering and support." Levels 3-18 will be residential.
It's being developed by Capstone Collegiate Communities:

The construction contract has already been awarded to Hoar Construction:

The team just won the contract for a private campus housing project, owned by Capstone Collegiate Communities, on the University of Texas West Campus based on their excellent budgeting and planning process. The 18-story tower will include 153 units and 441 beds.

The site is the NW corner of 22nd St and Nueces. It's just down the street from where Skyloft is going up, and the construction fencing for Skyloft can be seen in this Streetview photo:
