Box 1905 / Austin, Texas 78767-1905 / 512-498-9495 / Fax 512-327-1976 / e-mail [email protected] Volume 30, Number 50 March 27, 2009 Dear Client: Those high-rise condos in downtown Austin? Overbuilt? Are they selling? What are the prospects? In a time of terribly tight credit? During a downturn? Hmmm. Good questions. And you’ll find answers to those questions come down on opposite sides, depending upon who is doing the opining. So let’s check out the answers from those who have skin in the game – the developers and those trying to peddle the product. They may have the best handle on what is going on – or they may be whistling past the graveyard. They opened up to Katherine Gregor, who recorded what they said in a recent issue of The Austin Chronicle. The players: Taylor Andrews, the 360 Condominiums … Larry Warshaw and Perry Lorenz, Spring … Terry Mitchell, The Austonian … Beau Armstrong and Laurie Swan, W Austin Hotel & Residences … and Brett Denton and Art Carpenter, Four Seasons Residences. She also got the view of Kevin Burns, a broker who sells downtown properties. So, is downtown Austin overbuilt with condos? All told her “no.” Their reasoning: “After the four high-rise condo projects now under construction sell out, no other projects are in the pipeline,” she reported. “Due to the meltdown of the economy, which has frozen the capital markets and project financing, developers believe we’re unlikely to see any new projects get financed for one to two years.” (One exception: a possible sister project by the developer of the 360).

Residents proudly "Keep Austin Weird" in the 78704 zip code while neighborhoods like Travis Heights, Barton Hills and Bouldin Creek reflect highly diverse personalities: you'll discover historic homes next to modern architecture featured in magazines. A progressive, creative, personality-packed part of town, find folks who grow their own food, ride bikes to the neighborhood bar (many of Austin's "it" bars reside on the east side) and enjoy weekend farmers' markets. With a slower pace than downtown–but only a short bike ride away–this delightfully diverse area of kind folks and hip businesses is also growing into one of Austin's favorite places to hang out.

  • Hyde Park: an Early Suburban Development in Austin, Texas (1891- 1941)
    HYDE PARK: AN EARLY SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT IN AUSTIN, TEXAS (1891- 1941) Hyde Park, one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin, is nearing the hundredth anniversary of its founding. The legacy of its settlement and growth remind us of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin; a role which can be better understood and evaluated following a discussion of the city's development. Austin has served as Texas' seat of government since shortly after the city's founding in 1838. The city was established as the result of an internal struggle among the leaders of the newly formed Republic of Texas, which gained independence from Mexico in 1836. Many believed Houston or some other established town should be selected as the capital of Texas. Intense competition and rivalry developed for that designation and the attendant financial and political opportunities it would provide. As a compromise, founding fathers decided that the creation of an entirely new community was the most appropriate solution. As president of the Republic, Mirabeau B. Lamer selected Waterloo, small dispersed settlement on the Colorado River, as the new capital of Texas. Edwin Waller surveyed the townsite, including a grandly sited capitol square atop a hill that terminated a broad thoroughfare (Congress Avenue) extending from the river. Named in honor of Stephen F. Austin, the town became reality as the first lots were sold on August 1, 1839. Despite the isolated location near the frontier, the designation fueled the new capital's growth and its population increased to 856 by 1840. Numerous government offices opened providing the foundation for the local economy.
