Snapshots: Austonian Construction Part 2

The Austonian is a residential skyscraper currently under construction in Austin at the corner of Congress Avenue and Second Street. It is already the tallest building in Austin and upon completion in 2009 will be 683 feet tall with 56 floors. When these photographs were taken, construction was up to the 52rd floor. The shots were taken on the 51st floor.

These photographs were provided by Steve Hopson. Austinist thanks Bob Albanese and Cile Montgomery for the tour.
