This afternoon, City Council will consider a proposal for a 30 acre planned unit development (PUD) between Riverside Drive and Lakeshore Boulevard in southeast Austin. The development would replace 600 apartments now on the site with 1,200 apartments and 97,000 square feet of street-level retail space. Developers are seeking the right to build up to 90 feet high, but the tallest building in the current plan is only 75 feet tall. The recently enacted waterfront overlay ordinance imposes a height limit of 60 feet in the area, but the ordinance does not apply to PUDs.
