New Development: Austin Proper Hotel & Residences

The Trammel Crow Company is working with hotel developer The Kor Group to build a 243-room hotel and 100-unit condominium complex on Block 188 in the Green Waer development, south of the Austin Music Hall.
The downtown area is quickly changing its city scape, with old properties being redeveloped into towering skyscapers that, in turn, serve as a testament to the fast-paced progress enjoyed by Austin.
