From the Trib:

Happening / In process:
Another former bank building at 510 Austin Ave. opened this week as 25N Coworking, a four-story facility with 50,000 square feet of leasable office space for 200 workers. Officials with both projects said the professional workers they bring in will provide more foot traffic to Austin Avenue, which will support more urban vibrancy.

Talking about doing something:
The comeback story for that block started a new chapter this week with two new projects. A bank building on the corner of Austin and Sixth Street sold to local partners Tom Wright, Mike Voss and Todd Patterson, who want to turn it into offices and downstairs retail space with a restaurant or small grocery store.

Sorrells said he intends to build two new buildings of six to eight stories each on the corners of Fifth and Sixth streets. One building would offer Class A office space, which a 2018 study said is needed and missing in downtown. The other building would be mostly residential, Sorrells said. Both would have retail or leisure uses at street level, supported by downtown residents, workers and visitors from near and far, he said.

"From the city's perspective, the space between Washington Avenue and Austin Avenue could become a vibrant public plaza that is designed intentionally for people to gather," Ford said.

The public space would be "activated" by adjacent private businesses.
"This is an approach that has been used successfully at Sugar Land Town Center as well as Sundance Square in Fort Worth," he said.
