A repurposed industrial complex in East Austin is now seeking rezoning from the city for a 200-unit residential development. According to an application filed yesterday on behalf of owner Jesus Turullols of real estate firm Austin Phoenix Management, the approximately 1.8-acre property at 501 Pedernales Street requires a zoning change from a commercial to vertical mixed-use designation to develop the site with approximately 200 homes and 10,000 square feet of retail space.
The property is currently occupied by a nearly century-old collection . . .
