It’s no secret the Fifth & West skyscraper remains one of the most desirable buildings for luxury homes in Austin, TX. An artfully designed condominium development in Downtown Austin, the prestigious tower has been a hot spot since before it started selling units in 2017. Its appeal continues today as newly listed units are snatched up right away and spend very little time on the market.
“Its location is its namesake as it sits at the corner of Fifth & West Ave. The modern architecture of this triangular tower features incredible views in all directions.”
The Tower
The Fifth & West high-rise sits in the heart of Downtown Austin and towers over the market district at 448 feet tall. It offers 154 units that feature one, two, or three bedrooms and open-concept floor plans.
The entire structure houses over 321,000 square feet spanning 39 floors of premium luxury finishes. Original selling prices ranged from approximately $600k to as high as $3 million.
Its location is its namesake as it sits at the corner of Fifth & West Ave. The modern architecture of this triangular tower features incredible views in all directions, the most prominent being southeastern, showcasing Capitol View Corridor.
