Two apartment complexes proposed for Burnet Road in North Austin could bring nearly 700 residential units to an area where the Austin Board of Realtors reported that multifamily housing had a 96 percent to 97 percent occupancy rate in 2011.
Bury + Partners Inc., an Austin-based engineering consulting and design firm, filed plans for 300 residential units at 8100 Burnet Road between Steck Avenue and West Anderson Lane, according official documents. Ross Dress for Less and a former Chuck E. Cheese's occupy a 39,000-square-foot building on the site, which would be rezoned for multifamily use.
The proposed multifamily residential building would house one- to two-bedroom units between 550 and 1,300 square feet with estimated rental rates of $700–$1,800. Proposed amenities include a pool and clubhouse as well as fitness and business centers.
Melissa Neslund, land development planner for Bury + Partners, said the project does not have a timeline for construction.
