South Congress plan: Mixed-use project moving in?

​​AUSTIN – Plans are in the works for a mixed-use project on Congress St., south of downtown Austin, on several properties.

The project is planned for a 1.5-acre site encompassing five lots from 1011 South Congress Ave. to 1123 South Congress Ave. 

The properties are valued at $7.6 million by the Travis Central Appraisal District.

The proposed project would have 130,740 sf office, retail, and restaurant space, along with a parking garage.

Plans call for four buildings with two levels of office space atop street-level retail space. 

A four-story underground parking would have more than 400 spaces.

Lake said the proposed project could break ground late in spring 2017 and take two years to complete.
