Here’s news of a new mixed-use development just getting underway in Austin, TX. The project, being built by Transwestern Development Co and its partners, is a two-building project situated on a 4.2-acre site at 1621 and 1645 E. 6th St, at the intersection of E. 6th St and Comal Ave.
The first building is a 94.5k sf, creative office building, which is scheduled for completion in January 2016. The second building, called The Arnold, is slated for delivery in July 2016 and will consist of 346 apartment units with 9.6k sf of specialty retail at three key intersections of the property.
The immediate area, East Austin, has been well-recognized for its unique and award-winning entertainment and dining experiences, while its central location provides easy access to downtown, the University of Texas and the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Additionally, the Austin MetroRail’s Plaza Saltillo station sits immediately adjacent to the development site at the northwest corner of 5th St and Comal Ave.
The Arnold residential community will feature a large, resort-style pool; activity courtyard; roof deck with views of downtown Austin; business meeting areas; state-of-the-art fitness center with yoga studio and classes by FX Fitness; secure bike storage and private storage units. Each unit in the Arnold will feature quartz countertops, custom wood cabinets, a gourmet prep island, stainless steel appliances, full-sized washer and dryer connections, bike storage and private balconies.
Amegy Bank of Texas and Comerica Inc provided the financing for the project. Kirksey Architecture designed the office portion of the project, and Wilder Belshaw Architects designed the Arnold. The general contractors are Harvey Cleary, for the office portion, and Andres Construction for the mixed-use building. KimballBruehlGarciaEstes is the civil engineer for both buildings. Transwestern Development Co. Associate Vice President Josh Delk is leading the development team.
