Another new high-rise - this one a 50-story tower - planned for downtown Austin

Yet another high-rise is planned for downtown Austin, as the area's real estate market keeps booming despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The new 50-story tower is to be built at West Fifth and Colorado streets, and plans call for a mix of residential and office space. The project is being developed by an affiliate of Stonelake Capital Partners.
