From the 42nd Floor of Spring
If you needed any persuasion that Austin’s high-rise residences provide exceptional amenities — or at least exceptional views — a visit to the 42nd floor of the Spring Condominiums last night would have changed your mind.

Folks lined up in Mardi Gras beads to take the construction elevator to the top floor, where 360-degree views of Austin flooded in with the sunset.

Zowie! The green hills to the west, along with the lake, are visual lures, but I was most struck by the flattering views of downtown and the new towers to the east. (As one wag put it: “It’s like living in Hoboken (N.J.) because you can look back on Manhattan.”)

The crowd, which included condo buyers, inveterate downtowners and the plainly curious, couldn’t get enough of the spread and, especially, the faceted views.

Mock downtown condos if you will, but this is the kind of living one could get very used to.
