Two trendy condo projects aim to provide urban living at cheaper price tag
Pearlstone Partners is going vertical with a 33-story luxury condo high-rise near Rainey Street, but elsewhere in the city it hopes to tap into a different set of buyers with a new 68-unit condo project across from the Salty Sow restaurant in East Austin.
The 58,000 square-foot development, called EastGate Condos, is likely the first condominium project in a fast-changing section of Manor Road — where several new trendy bars and restaurants have cropped up.
What’s The Ruckus? Student housing project plans second tower
An Austin-based developer is looking to make an even bigger Ruckus in West Campus.
Lincoln Ventures, the company behind The Ruckus, says the year-old student housing project has been such a success that it’s planning a companion property, The Ruckus 2.0.
Construction started this month and work is expected to be done in time for the fall 2019 semester at the University of Texas.
The Ruckus 2.0, at 2401 Rio Grande St., will rise seven stories, with 67 units with a total of 239 beds, Lincoln Ventures said.

"My vision for The Ruckus is to be disruptive and trend-setting in the student housing industry," said David Kanne, president of Lincoln Ventures.
The project, which is only 45 units with 160 beds, is being designed by Mark Hart Architecture in association with Wuest Group engineering. Mark Hart Architecture and Wuest Group also are the local designers behind two other student housing projects being developed by Johnson Trube & Associates ( see one here and the other here), another Austin-based real estate company that wants to get in on the student housing action.
