What we reported The Grove at Shoal Creek in North Central Austin is a 75-acre development that underwent a contentious, yearslong zoning approval process. Music Lane, a 2-acre development on South Congress Avenue, will house members-only London-based club Soho House and upscale gym Equinox. And officials tout Plaza Saltillo, a 10-acre redevelopment of a Capital Metro-owned site on the near East side, as a salve for two of Austin’s biggest issues—affordable housing and mobility—even as it will likely accelerate already skyrocketing property values.
The latest The Grove is constructing new homes on-site. The first phase of Music Lane is scheduled to open in September. And Plaza Saltillo is expected to open late this year; tenants include Whole Foods Market, Hopdoddy Burger Bar and Epoch Coffee.
