AQUILA Commercial today announced that 801 Barton Springs has reached its final construction height or “topped out.” The 90,500-square foot Class A office building located at 801 Barton Springs Road features four stories of office atop four and a half levels of parking and an 1,800-square foot restaurant space on the ground floor.
The building will be ready for tenant improvements in September 2017 and will be ready for occupancy by late November 2017. Construction began on the project in July 2016.
“Topping out is an amazing milestone for this project,” said Joe Llamas, principal of Generational Commercial Properties. “Our team has worked hard delivering a first-class structure and I’m thrilled to see the quality and amazing design come to life with our project finishes. I couldn’t be prouder of our team and what this project means to our neighborhood.”
801 Barton Springs has been designed to create innovative and dynamic work spaces that reflect the spirit of the Austin community; a spirit of inspiration, invigoration and conservation. 801 Barton Springs captures that spirit with beautiful architecture, striking views framing Austin’s skyline, environmentally sustainable design, a location in the heart of south Austin and parking to accommodate employees and visitors.
“Having tackled numerous staging and sequencing challenges, as well as the difficulties inherent in such a tight jobsite, we are excited to have remained on schedule and to have achieved this important construction milestone for this a unique office building,” said Kyle Marrou, senior project manager at Harvey-Cleary Builders.
The office development is a partnership between Austin-based Generational Commercial Properties and Houston-based HTZ Investments. Austin-based architecture firm Runa Workshop designed the building. Harvey-Cleary serves as the general contractor. AQUILA Commercial is handling the leasing of the office space and Viceroy Realty Advisors is leasing the retail space.
“We have had a great deal of interest since the inception of 801 Barton Springs, because of the phenomenal location, quality of building and amazing views it affords tenants,” says Bethany Perez, principal with AQUILA Commercial. “Since the beginning of the year, activity at 801 Barton Springs has been off the charts because it’s one of the few buildings set to deliver this year.”
