The Austonian, Residential skyscraper in Downtown Austin, United States
The Austonian is a residential skyscraper in downtown Austin with 56 floors wrapped in glass. The building features modern apartments with balconies and contributes a distinctive profile to the city's skyline.
Construction began in 2007 and finished in 2010, establishing this tower as part of Austin's urban growth at that time. The project represented a shift toward downtown residential development in the city.
The 2010 Women's Symphony League Designer Showhouse exhibition at The Austonian presented the building to the public before residents moved in.
The tower stands prominently in downtown and is easy to spot from street level near shops and restaurants. Access inside is restricted to residents and authorized visitors.
The building underwent major maintenance work in 2019 to address issues with its balconies. These repairs show the ongoing care required to maintain the modern structure in good condition.
