<< Back to Projects Phase I consists of two, high-density, student-oriented apartment projects within 3-4 blocks of the University of Texas campus; Phase II, currently under construction, will provide two additional apartment projects and a parking garage with retail. With the passing of the University Neighborhood Overlay, new provisions allow for increased density with the goal of providing more of a pedestrian campus environment. While UNO potentially allows for large amounts of additional housing, the reality is that fractious land ownership, very few undeveloped tracts, and significant institutional land ownership are substantial barriers to new development. | |
