Standing on top of the tallest building in Austin, there is nothing between me and city. Below, people are stuck in traffic; they’re meeting up for happy hour and some are enjoying kayaking on Towne Lake.
I had the opportunity to see Austin from this vantage point with about 25 other people as part of Good Life’s downtown Austin condo tour. The tour gave us a taste for what downtown living is like in a no-pressure situation.
The tour began at the Austonian, which is still under construction. On the highest level, the windows have yet to be installed. Standing on the platform, I couldn’t help but feel empowered, like I owned the city. And if you lived there, maybe you do, considering how much it takes to afford the view at the top. The ballpark is somewhere in the one to two million dollar range.
