Bold, design-forward luxury living in downtown Austin's iconic W Hotel tower on the shores of Lady Bird Lake.
The W Residences occupy a landmark position in downtown Austin, integrated within the W Austin Hotel and Residences tower at the corner of 2nd Street and Lavaca. This mixed-use luxury development combines the energy and service culture of the W Hotel brand with the permanence and privacy of full-ownership residences, all set directly on Lady Bird Lake in one of the city's most coveted locations. For buyers who want to live at the intersection of lifestyle, design, and urban energy, The W Residences deliver an experience unlike any other in Austin.
The W Residences attract a dynamic, design-savvy clientele—entrepreneurs, creatives, entertainers, and global travelers who are drawn to the W brand's bold aesthetic and vibrant social energy. Residents enjoy a lifestyle that blurs the line between living and hospitality, with access to the hotel's curated programming, social spaces, and service culture. The community is intimate yet connected, with residents who value style, convenience, and the electric energy of downtown Austin.
The lifestyle is inherently social and urban. The W's Living Room lounge, rooftop pool, and restaurant serve as extensions of residents' homes—places to meet, entertain, and experience the best of Austin's creative culture. Whether attending a live music event in the building, dining at the in-house restaurant, or unwinding at the spa after a day of work, W residents live at the center of it all.
Residences at the W feature the brand's signature design-forward aesthetic—bold colors, premium materials, and thoughtfully curated interiors that reflect the energy of Austin. Units range from studios and one-bedrooms to expansive multi-bedroom residences, with pricing typically ranging from the $500Ks to over $3M for the most premium units. Floor plans emphasize open living, natural light, and lake or city views through walls of glass. Kitchens feature high-end appliances and contemporary finishes, while bathrooms offer spa-inspired design.
Ownership includes access to the full W Hotel amenity suite, creating a living experience that combines the best elements of luxury hospitality with the ownership benefits of a premium condominium. The combination of the W brand, the waterfront location, and the Second Street District address ensures strong long-term demand and resale value.
The W Residences sit at the epicenter of the Second Street District, Austin's premier urban neighborhood for boutique shopping, dining, and pedestrian-friendly streetlife. World-class restaurants, independent boutiques, and curated retailers are steps from the front door. The Warehouse District, Rainey Street, and Sixth Street entertainment corridor are all within easy walking distance, providing access to the full spectrum of Austin's legendary dining, live music, and nightlife scene.
The Lady Bird Lake hike-and-bike trail runs directly along the property, offering over 10 miles of scenic paths for running, cycling, and walking—providing an essential counterpoint to the urban energy just steps away.
The W Residences are located within Austin Independent School District. While the property primarily attracts non-family households, families have access to public and private school options throughout central Austin, including proximity to the University of Texas at Austin and its associated resources.
