RiverSouth
Having experienced tremendous growth the past decade with no signs of slowing down, the city of Austin continues to try and accommodate a new workforce that expects nothing but the best. One of the newest commercial buildings to hit that mark? RiverSouth – an almost 350,000 SF office tower located on 401 S 1st street that bridges the popular downtown and South Congress areas. The building includes ground-level retail and dining, 37,000 SF floorplans of coworking spaces, multiple floors of parking, and all of the amenities that employees could ask for.
“This project not only ushers in a new era in the South Central Waterfront district but will re-establish a vibrant gateway to downtown,” said Ryan Therrell, director of business development at The Beck Group. RiverSouth is the first building to be completed in the 20-year plan to redevelop the 118-acre neighborhood.
With the building being a new bright spot in the area and expected to set the standard for future projects, KSC worked diligently with project partners Beck Architecture and The Beck Group to deliver a custom unitized garage screen and ventilated rain screen with architectural louvers. The client needed a business partner that had the expertise and ability to fabricate and install multiple disciplines and KSC delivered a stunning extruded aluminum and aluminum composite garage screen on two sides of the triangular building.
RiverSouth was selected as a 2022 Austin AGC Outstanding Construction Award winner in the Design Build 3 Category for projects valued over $30 million and 2023 Design-Build Institute of America’s National Award of Excellence winner in commercial buildings.
