Cambridge Tower, a Midcentury Milestone in Downtown Austin, Seeks National Historic Recognition

James Rambin February 14, 2018 Comment

Cambridge Tower, a 15-story residential building at 1801 Lavaca Street near West Campus, was downtown Austin's tallest apartment tower when it first opened in 1965.

Though you might not give the building much thought now, the innovations of its time were significant -- with an assortment of amenities for its residents including restaurants on the ground floor, valet parking, and concierge service, the building was likely the highest-end apartment community in the city when it opened, until changing its usage to condos in . . .
