Austin’s Brown Building, Aging Well
April 25, 2011 by Gail Boston · Leave a Comment
This intelligently renovated 1940 Art Deco landmark offers more than just high ceilings, open loft floor plans and carefully restored casement windows. Beyond its dramatic deco façade, occupants enjoy the convenient location, large windows, easy parking, a sun roof, skyline views and the Brown Bar on the street level. Its prime location scores 100% on Walk Score.
History is still being made here in this active community. Like a lovely Cabernet, this place improves with age. The Brown Building possesses many rich qualities some of its younger counter parts lack.
