Separate ground floor lobby entrances and elevator banks will differentiate between office and residential space.
Stonelake managing partner Kenneth Aboussie said: “5th & Colorado was a unique opportunity for Stonelake to acquire an irreplaceable development site in Downtown Austin. Stonelake was able to react in an entrepreneurial way and close under a very short timeline. The development of residential and office in walkable, amenity rich locations is a centerpiece to Stonelake’s investment strategy. We are excited for 5th & Colorado to become a signature addition to Austin’s skyline.”
Ziegler Cooper Architects has been appointed as designer while Harvey Builders will serve as general contractor. The civil engineering work will be handled by Garza EMC.
Stonelake is the 100% owner of 5th & Colorado without an outside equity or development partner.
The construction of the project is tentatively scheduled to commence in the first quarter of next year and complete by early 2025.
