Editor’s Update

The Austin Towers team wants to take a minute to say “thanks!” for your continued readership and let you know about some changes coming.

We’re excited to announce that Austin Towers was acquired by and will become a part of the Downtown Austin Blog network. Downtown Austin Blog publishes real estate sales data similar to Austin Towers, and also includes editorial on development and lifestyle topics related to Downtown Austin.

To better serve the readers of both Austin Towers and the Downtown Austin Blog, the idea was formed and nurtured to bring the sites under an integrated publishing platform and owner. Austin Towers will maintain the same high-quality source for Austin development news it has come to be known for, including the updated market index.

Paul D’Arcy, the founder of Austin Towers, will continue to be an occasional contributor to the site as he shifts his focus to a new entrepreneurial venture. For the site’s many readers, Austin Towers will live on as a testament to Paul’s energy and devotion to downtown Austin. Even after the site’s acquisition, Paul plans to remain actively involved in downtown Austin policy and planning.

Thanks again for making this site what it is today and coming back for insightful information and editorial about our fast changing urban core in Austin, Texas — which recently passed San Francisco as the 13th largest city in America
