21 Rio

A Vibrant Housing Solution 

The 21 Rio project is an impressive high-density housing development designed to provide comfortable and convenient housing for students at the nearby University of Texas. The building is situated on Rio Grande Avenue in the UNO District of Austin, Texas, and stands tall with its towering 21-story tower. The building is thoughtfully designed, with five levels dedicated to parking and 16 levels for residential spaces, making it a perfect choice for students who need to be close to campus. Thanks to its prime location, the building covers the entire lot, providing a unique urban feel that is both modern and sophisticated. 

The units inside the building are designed to cater to the needs of students, professors, and university administrative personnel alike. Each unit offers a comfortable and welcoming living space. The building offers several amenities, including balconies, wood floors, granite countertops, and a pool, providing a one-of-a-kind living experience that is both luxurious and convenient. 

Additionally, 21 Rio is certified as an Austin Green Building, making it an environmentally friendly choice for those seeking to live sustainably.
