Designed by the Austin office of the global architecture firm ,HKS, and interior design by Britt Design Group, Wilson Tower at its completion will reach 1,035 feet in height across 80 floors making it an iconic contribution to Austin’s growing skyline.
“We are proud to be part of the redevelopment of East 5th Street – being a native Austinite, it has been a journey to watch the evolution of the city over the last decade,” says Taylor Wilson, Wilson Capital. “We believe it is important to add intentionally designed density along the city’s transit corridors to accommodate the unprecedented level of population growth Austin is experiencing. We are passionate about making a meaningful contribution to the city we call home.”
The 450-unit multifamily development will offer exceptional features with hospitality-based services and sophisticated design, setting a new standard amongst Austin’s high-rise apartment towers. In addition to unobstructed skyline views, a signature ground floor restaurant and bar, an activated streetscape, and more, Wilson Tower will offer valet, plus four full floors of amenities that will include an expansive pool deck with food and beverage service, full-service fitness and wellness center, resident cocktail lounge and movie theater, coworking spaces, and a floor dedicated to pets, outfitted with a pet playroom, grooming center, and dog run.
Units will range from studios all the way up to 3 and 4-bedroom penthouses.
“Our vision for Wilson Tower is to set a new bar in skyscraper residences for Austin that we believe will foster creativity and social connection,” said Brad Wilkins, Principal and Design Director for HKS Austin. “Along with welcoming outdoor terraces and gardens, the tower itself is wrapped in a brise soleil that offers protection from the hot Texas sun and wind while also providing structural strength. This brise soleil gives the building uniquely shaded and comfortable outdoor living spaces on every level.”
Wilson Tower is the redevelopment of a 0.8-acre site spanning a half-city block, previously home to the Avenue Lofts building.
