A supertall skyscraper is coming to Austin, Texas

Supertalls, by definition, are residential or office buildings reaching 300 meters — 984 feet — or higher. Another supertall project, the mixed-use Waterline skyscraper, is already under construction in Austin. According to current plans, Wilson Tower will be 13 feet taller than that structure, and more than 30 feet taller than the current Texas recordholder, JPMorgan Chase Tower in Houston, which is 1,002 feet tall.
Those who aren't familiar with Austin and all it has to offer might not expect to hear about supertall skyscrapers under construction there.
"'Why Austin?' would be the obvious question," Wilkins said. "As you scratch beneath the surface, it just makes sense. It's a really energetic place. It's amazing how much is happening and how much is going to continue to happen here."
According to Wilkins, the initial aim wasn't to build the tallest building in Texas.
"We didn't set out to be the tallest ... That was really just the result of doing the best design possible," he said.
