Austin Approved 1,000 Homes in Circle C Ranch. It’s Not Clear Who Will Actually Build Them.
The Austin City Council approved a rezoning request that clears the way for up to 1,000 residences on a 67-acre tract in the Circle C Ranch neighborhood of far southwest Austin, according to documents submitted by an entity tied to Stratus Properties and reported by the Austin Business Journal, as relayed by The Real Deal. The site, known as Tract 110, sits near the southwest corner of MoPac Expressway and State Highway 45, south of Slaughter Lane, and was previously zoned for up to 650,000 square feet of commercial office development under a 2002 Circle C Development Agreement, according to CultureMap Austin. One geographic detail is worth flagging rather than repeating uncritically: The Real Deal's report describes the site as sitting "on the south side of the Colorado River," but Circle C Ranch is in far south Austin near Slaughter Lane, well south of where the Colorado River (Lady Bird Lake, in central Austin) actually runs. That claim doesn't appear in any of the other coverage reviewed for this piece and looks like an error rather than a distinguishing fact, so it isn't repeated as established here.
