With more than a dozen high-rise projects currently in the planning or construction phases, Austin’s skyline will change fast. This composite image (source unknown) provides a sense of the scale of the different projects. Note that the Congress Condos has been renamed the Austonian and is currently planned at 55 stories — about the height of the Tom Stacy project at 5th and Congress. The Frost Bank Building, sometimes referred to as the world’s largest nose hair trimmer, will no longer dominate the Austin skyline.
