Executive Summary
Waterstreet Lofts is a mixed-use condominium development located in the heart of East Austin’s highly desirable East Cesar Chavez corridor. Completed in 2007, the project combines residential lofts with a limited number of ground-floor commercial units, creating a built-in customer base and a dynamic live/work environment. The building features modern loft-style construction with high ceilings, large windows, and a contemporary industrial aesthetic. Residents and commercial occupants benefit from controlled access, a gated parking garage, and a well-maintained common area structure managed by the condominium association. Positioned at the signalized intersection of Cesar Chavez and Comal, the property offers strong visibility and immediate access to one of Austin’s most active urban corridors. The surrounding area is characterized by a dense mix of residential growth, boutique retail, restaurants, coffee shops, and creative office users, all contributing to consistent pedestrian activity and neighborhood demand. Waterstreet Lofts is located just minutes from Downtown Austin, Lady Bird Lake, and the Saltillo District, with convenient access to I-35 and East 6th Street. The project benefits from long-term growth trends in East Austin, where limited supply of small-format commercial ownership opportunities continues to drive demand from owner-users and local businesses.
