Austin Oaks – now with more math!
Thursday, March 30, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
There were a lot of distractions during last Thursday’s fairly endless discussion by City Council on the Austin Oaks planned unit development. So it’s understandable if the post-midnight debate over the value of office space got a bit lost. Luckily (?) Council Member Alison Alter has taken the time to break down the crux of that late-night debate in a new post on the City Council Message Board. In that post, she explains that 25,000 square feet looks to be worth between $1 million and $2 million, depending on the source. Though there was not yet a response to Alter’s post at the time of publication, we look forward to the math to come!
