The Austonian, which opened in June 2010, sets a new standard for luxury condominiums. The tallest building in Austin and the tallest residential building West of the Mississippi, The Austonian offers expansive views of the city and surrounding Texas Hill Country along with an elegant lifestyle in one of America’s fastest growing cities. Occupying one-third of a city block in the heart of downtown Austin, The Austonian’s sleek and environmentally conscious design offers a lavish green lifestyle. Deluxe amenities include top tier services and dozens of premier shops, restaurants and music venues within a five-minute walk. The Austonian’s central location is one block from the trails of Lady Bird Lake on the Colorado River and eight blocks south of the Texas State Capitol. The Austonian includes 166 high-end residences and more than 40,000 square feet of private amenities. There is 6,000 square feet of entertainment space available for parties: a billiard and game room; a wine vault; theater screening room; 6,000-square foot fitness center; 75-foot outdoor saltwater swimming pool; and a 600-square-foot dog park — all exclusively accessible to residents and their invited guests. A staff of Austonian Assistants is also on-hand, 24-hours-a-day, to help simplify residents’ daily lives by, for example, arranging housekeeping and laundry pick-up.
