AUSTIN, TX (February 20, 2024) – Brandywine Realty Trust and ZRS Management today revealed a first look at Solaris House, the first residential offering at Uptown ATX, Brandywine’s 66-acre mixed-use community in North Austin. Solaris House features 341 units ranging from studios to two-bedroom residences and will offer a select number of units dedicated to the City of Austin’s Smart Housing Program. A 23,000-square-foot amenity terrace featuring a pool and outdoor dining and gathering areas connects Solaris House to One Uptown, a mixed-use tower featuring eight (8) floors of office space over six (6) levels of structured parking and 15,000 square feet of ground-floor retail. Solaris House is scheduled to open in late Spring 2024.
“At Uptown ATX, we have a grand vision to create dynamic, integrated, frictionless experiences for work, life, and play in Austin’s second downtown,” said Jerry Sweeney, President and CEO of Brandywine Realty Trust. “We are delighted to have ZRS, a company as laser-focused on high-quality relationships and experiences as Brandywine, on board to bring Solaris House to North Austin and the first residents to Uptown ATX.”
Designed by award-winning multi-disciplinary design firm GFF, Solaris House will set a new standard for luxury living in North Austin. Thoughtfully designed units feature top-of-the-line stainless steel kitchen appliances, granite countertops with tile backsplashes, contemporary cabinetry in two color schemes, and a full-size washer/dryer in all residences. Upgrades available in select units include undercabinet lighting, luxury spa/shower combos, walk-in showers, mudrooms, and private yards or balconies.
The amenity offering at Solaris House supports a next-level lifestyle. Within the building, residents have access to a social lounge with private dining room, TVs, billiards, and a kitchenette; a coworking lounge with conference center, phone rooms, and wet bar; a quiet business lounge; and a fitness center featuring state-of-the-art strength/cardio exercise equipment with stretching/warm up area. Solaris House also offers a concierge service, bicycle storage and repair station, a pet spa with washing stations, and package lockers accessible 24/7. A gated parking garage with electric car charging stations is shared with One Uptown.
Outdoor amenities include a resort-style pool deck with grilling stations, dining space, and private cabanas in addition to an outdoor lounge with TVs and a kitchenette. At ground level, residents have direct access to Solaris Park, a public greenspace that will ultimately connect to 11 acres of parks and public spaces throughout Uptown ATX.
“We are beyond excited to work with Brandywine Realty Trust on this incredible project,” said Jim Morrissey, Regional Vice President at ZRS. “Solaris House will be unmatched in quality and lifestyle experience for our residents. This first phase of the Uptown ATX master plan will set the standard for luxury living in North Austin.”
Solaris House and One Uptown comprise the first ground-up projects within Uptown ATX, a 66-acre mixed-use neighborhood master-planned and developed by Brandywine Realty Trust.
Uptown ATX is located in the heart of the North Burnet-Gateway Corridor of North Austin – a 2,300-acre vision of future mixed-use densification bounded by MoPac Expressway, Highway 183, Metric Blvd, and Wells Branch Parkway – known as Austin’s Second Downtown. Uptown ATX will bring modern transit connections including a new CapMetro station, vibrant walkable streets, a network of parks and trails, and a unique mix of uses to North Austin. The growing region is home to high-end luxury retail, entertainment venues, and Fortune 500 office tenants. Situated between the Charles Schwab regional headquarters and walkable to the shops and restaurants at The Domain, Uptown ATX will define the new center of Austin’s Second Downtown as a hub for business, culture, entertainment, recreation, and transit.
