Austin EDC Blocks 18 Proposal
Austin, Texas

 

We collaborated with local firm, Mark Odom Studio, Legacy Real Estate Development, and ARA to envision a transformative development for Block 16 and Block 18 in East Austin, Texas, that harmonizes with the city’s vibrant music and arts scene while addressing the challenges and opportunities of socio-economic changes, including gentrification. Our ambitious plan seeks to enrich the community by offering affordable housing, supporting local culture and businesses, and enhancing public spaces, all underpinned by a commitment to long-term durability and sustainability.

 The urban design of both Block 16 and Block 18 are designed to create a more open, porous inviting heart of the neighborhood. Multiple pedestrian entry points on all sides of the project invite the public into the heart of the block; the heart of the Six Square. A three-block-long urban district with unified placemaking and landscaping, identity/ herringbone brick pattern/shaded courtyards, and a passageway accessible to the public. Provide a permanent home for 6Square and Urban League within the district.
