Project Scale and Context

This development is substantially larger than typical new construction filings in Travis County. The estimated cost is above the county median for its type, placing it in the top quarter of recent projects. The scheduled build window of 823 days is longer than the county median of 304 days. The cost per square foot of $165 is also above the county median of $125. These figures indicate a high-end residential project with a complex construction timeline.

WDG Architecture has been involved in several other major projects in the region. Recent filings include Grand Place Addition in Frisco, Loma in Dallas, and Modera at the Hill in Dallas. The firm’s portfolio includes the AM Fairmount Mixed-Use Tower in Dallas, valued at $130,000,000. The Right Angle fits within a pattern of large-scale multifamily developments managed by this design team. The project is situated in a ZIP code with a median household income of $101,304 and a median owner-occupied home value of $644,200, according to U.S. Census estimates.

This classification suggests a lower risk of flooding compared to areas within designated flood zones. The project is part of a broader trend of residential development in the Holly area, which includes other new construction and renovation projects in the vicinity. The construction phase is expected to proceed according to the registered timeline, with completion targeted for late 2028.
