Aspen Heights, an Austin-based student housing developer, will break ground this summer on a high-rise multifamily project at the northeast corner of West Eighth and Nueces streets.
The project will also be called Aspen Heights and will include 196 units with a rooftop pool, fitness center and dog park. It's scheduled to be finished by the first quarter of 2016.

The 22-story project is the company’s first foray into conventional multifamily housing, though CEO and Founder Greg Henry has a history of working on various real estate developments dating back to his career in Arkansas.

Not really a fan. The garage with the three floors on top is the best part of it! Just pretty blah overall; looks like it's not even as tall as it is wide.
