To meet the growing demand in the region’s apartment market, the new residential scheme will feature a mix of efficiencies and one- and two-bedroom units. The four- and five-storied apartment community scheme will provide units ranging from 630 square feet to 1,200 square feet, with 820 square feet being the average size.

To provide an elevated lifestyle to the residents, the units will be energy-efficient, and will feature high ceilings, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, wood cabinets, private yards and private walk-up patios.

In addition to that, the community will also feature a a fitness studio, a business and conference centre, a club and gaming lounge, and a resort-style pool and private sundeck. The apartment community will tie into the 13 miles of hike and bike trails planned at Mueller. AMLI also plans to apply for LEED certification for the project.

Twenty percent of the multifamily project will offer studios with 56% of the units to have one bedroom, and 24% of two-bedroom units. About 15% of units will be included in the Mueller Affordable Homes Program, reserved for residents who earn 60% or less of Austin’s median family income.

AMLI expects to break ground in the first quarter of 2013, with the first units available in the third or fourth quarter of 2014.
