Late last month, developers submitted a site plan approval application with the City for a high-rise at 8th & Nueces. According to backup materials submitted to the Design Commission, this is what we know:
Project name = Aspen Heights
Number of stories = 22
Height = 200 feet (tiered from 60' to 120' to 200')
Architect = Rhode Partners
Project Start Date = Spring 2014
Project Completion = 2015
Stair-stepping from 60' to 120' to 200', the setbacks are designed to minimize building height adjacent to the low-rise residential character to the west.
