Opening Of Lakeline Station Apartments

Posted in Project Photos by Kristie

We are honored to have been the architects for the Lakeline Station Apartments, which just celebrated its Grand Opening on April 19th. Thanks to this new living community, families who have struggled to find affordable housing in Austin now have a safe, beautiful, and supportive place to call home.

 

 

 

With all 128 units fully leased, Lakeline Station is off to a successful start! This affordable housing development was built with sustainable green building practices in mind, particularly at the on-site Michael & Susan Dell Foundation Learning Center. The Learning Center will be the first “net zero” commercial building in Austin, ultimately producing more energy than it consumes.  Additionally, surrounding the building are metal cisterns which store rainwater harvested from the roof and a landscape which includes edible plants such as a loquat grove, sunflowers, and veggies planted in raised gardening beds for the children.

 

 

 

In keeping with the inspired mission of our client, Foundation Communities, the space will host after-school and summer learning programs for children as  well as “English as a second language” classes. For adults, the Learning Center will also provide financial coaching, exercise and nutrition classes, and help with health insurance enrollment.

As more and more people continue to re-locate to Austin, we are seeing a steady increase in the number of residential projects we are doing here at h+uo. This includes everything from single-family homes, ADU’s, duplexes, whole-house remodels, and additions. We expect this trend to continue as U.S. News and World Report recently named Austin the best place to live in America.

 

 

 

 

Here is one of our latest residential projects to be completed.  Located in the revitalized Chestnut Neighborhood on the east side of town, this speculative home sold in just a few weeks.   To see more of our featured residential projects, please visit our website HERE.

Here are some of our noteworthy pools:

Shortly before Christmas Erik traveled to Vermont to check on the timber-frame package for his latest project, The Groves. While at the Vermont Timberworks facility he was given a tour of the shop and was introduced to their crew.

“They showed a lot of pride and craftsmanship in their work. Very inspiring.” -Erik
