This 315-metre skyscraper is set to become the tallest in Texas. Designed by @hksarchitects, the Wilson Tower will rise 80-storeys above Austin and offer 450 residential apartments once it completes. Its facade will feature a brise soleil system to shield occupants from the city's intense summer heat. . The skyscraper will gain its status as the state's tallest by narrowly overtaking the 312-metre "Waterline" development (image 7). . Images 1-6 courtesy of HKS.
