Gary's Favorites
A curated collection of Gary's favorite luxury apartment buildings in downtown Austin. These are not ranked — they are all exceptional buildings that Gary personally recommends.
The Collection
Rainey Street — Gary's Current Building
This is where I live — a 48-story tower on Rainey Street with one of the best communities I've been a part of. Daydreamer coffee is downstairs. Amaya restaurant is steps away. The wellness amenities, the pool, the social energy — this building just gets it right.

Rainey Street
43 stories above Lady Bird Lake with a sky lounge on the 43rd floor, a saltwater rooftop pool, and a full spa. If you want to feel like you're on vacation every day, this is your building.

6th & Guadalupe
66 stories. 865 feet. The second tallest building in Austin. Residential floors start at the 35th — so every apartment has serious views. This is a building that makes a statement before you even walk in the door.

West 5th Street
Sky lounge on the 46th floor. Golf simulator. Gourmet kitchens with gas cooktops — which is rare in Austin high-rises. 415 Colorado is a building that thinks about the details that most buildings skip.

West 5th & Warehouse District
45 stories in the heart of downtown. The pool deck sits on the 44th floor with panoramic skyline views that are hard to beat. One of the best-managed buildings in Austin — Hanover sets the bar.

Brazos Street
308 residences. 44th floor rooftop pool. Private terraces on select units. Hanover Brazos has a boutique feel despite its height — it never feels crowded, and the management is consistently top-tier.

Guadalupe Street
The red brick exterior gives Gables a completely different vibe from the glass towers around it. Rock star aesthetic meets serious luxury. Walkable to the Warehouse District and Republic Square Park — and consistently one of the best-run buildings in Austin.

East Downtown / 11th Street
Managed by Hanover — which tells you everything about the quality. Larger floor plans than most downtown towers, a pool deck on the 30th floor, and a golf simulator. East Downtown is having a moment, and Alexan Waterloo is right in the middle of it.

Rainey Street
Design-forward and contemporary on Rainey Street. The rooftop retreat and coworking lounge make this one a great fit for people who work from home and want a beautiful place to do it.

East Austin / IH-35
Two pools, indoor basketball, vaulted ceilings in select units, and a community events calendar that actually gets people together. Avenir captures the East Austin lifestyle while delivering luxury amenities that most buildings at this price point can't touch.
