Austin is Becoming a Real Estate Technology Hub

The Future of Real Estate Summit took place at the Hotel Van Zandt last Wednesday in the Rainey Street District. The 4-Star boutique hotel, which opened in 2015, is a symbol of the transformation that has taken place in downtown Austin in the last decade. The neighborhood once filled with single-family homes is now an entertainment district with bars and restaurants and several high-rise hotels and condominium projects under construction or just completed. Across the street from the 16-story Hotel Van Zandt, the Quincy, a 30-story tall mixed-use office building is being constructed on what used to be a gravel parking lot.
