📰About QUICKIE PICKIE
A new 4,724-square-foot cafe and market is under construction at 4315 South Congress Avenue in Austin, Texas. The project, registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) under the name Quickie Pickie, is a fully sprinklered finish-out located within the Congress Lofts at St. Elmo development. The estimated cost for this new construction is $900,000, which calculates to $191 per square foot.
Project Scope and Location
Situated in the St. Edwards neighborhood of Travis County, the site is on private land for private use. The owner of record is 4315 South Development LLC, which also registered a separate $50,000,000 project at this address that has already closed. Framework Architects serves as the design firm of record. The specific scope of work involves the interior finish-out for a food sales market and cafe, distinct from the surrounding residential units.
TDLR completed the plan review process in September 2025. According to the filing, construction was scheduled to begin in December 2025 with a target completion date of August 2026. Although that scheduled end date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current physical state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The registered accessibility specialist for this project is Robert Ronson.
Market Context and Records
In the broader Travis County market, this project's estimated cost is close to the county median for new construction filings. The scheduled build window of 243 days is also close to the county median of 304 days. However, the cost per square foot of $191 is above the county median of $125. City of Austin permit records show 24 permits on file at this street address, issued between February 2024 and June 2026. These include plumbing, electrical, and building permits, with several noting first-time finish-out work for market and cafe spaces.
Third-party listings describe Congress Lofts at St. Elmo as a development supporting an urban, creative lifestyle with loft-style spaces. One Facebook post described the project as a ground-up condo development in Austin. These descriptions refer to the broader residential complex in which this specific cafe and market unit is located.
