W & Austonian Win “Best New Building”

towers staff October 16, 2011 Comment

The Austin Chronicle released it’s “Best of Austin” awards with recognize a few downtown highlights:

The “Best New Building in the Past Five Years” was a tie between the W and the Austonian. The Chronicle wrote that, “Austin’s Downtown skyline is ever-changing, but two new buildings have rightfully caught our readers’ attention and imaginations this year. The Austonian, the tallest residential building in Texas, cuts a sleek profile just north of Lady Bird Lake and boasts ground-level dining and drinking establishments that have attracted national attention. The W Hotel has done the same, bearing a strikingly modern sensibility both inside and out that inevitably turns heads. Taken together, these two additions to our urban landscape certainly signal that a new Austin has arrived.”

Other downtown winners include:

– Best Bathroom: W Hotel (so true!)
– Best Downtown View: Long Center for the Performing Arts
– Best Historic Site: State Capital
– Best Public Art: ‘Play Me, I’m Yours’
– Best Statue: Stevie Ray Vaughan

See the endless list of winners here!
