This is a brand new building right in the heart of the exciting Rainey Street scene. On the weekend it's thronged with people of all ages, bars, music, food trucks, TRAFFIC. The sound insulation is really good, though; we never had any concerns. Even if you aren't focusing on the Rainey Street scene, you are an easy walk to downtown or east Austin. There's a bikeshare depot right across the street, too. We didn't take advantage of the parking but that would be a bonus as well.
The pool area is nice on a sunny day. Plenty of room in the apartment itself, with new furnishings and generally all you'd want!
