What Is The Row?

  • 314‑acre community formerly known as Velocity, recently rebranded as The Row
  • 7 million square feet of entitled space—including housing, retail, office, entertainment, hotel, and over 100 acres of green space
  • Phase I: Del Via is already under construction—307 apartments (studios to 3‑beds), with move‑ins slated for February 2025

Why It Matters Locally

Walkability & Amenities:

Phase II will deliver a 6,250 sq ft restaurant pad, plus 22,000 sq ft of retail, with groundbreaking scheduled for early 2025. Phase III adds 100,000 sq ft of more retail, an AC Hotel by Marriott, and over 300 additional apartments.

Sustainability & Open Space:

With over 100 acres of parks and open areas, The Row puts green at the forefront. It benefits from being within a Triple Freeport Zone—a tax benefit that encourages business growth.

Economic Impact:

The Row brings retail access, grocery options, hotel capacity, and local jobs—enhancing Southeast Austin’s infrastructure. Nearby catalysts include the Tesla Gigafactory, ACC’s Advanced Manufacturing campus, and a $423M State Emergency Operations Center.

For Buyers, Sellers & Investors

First‑Time Buyers & New Construction Seekers:

Del Via offers brand-new, amenity-rich rental living. For buyers, keep an eye on for‑sale phases coming soon.

Sellers & Homeowners:

The Row is expected to elevate surrounding home prices through improved infrastructure, retail, and amenities.

Investors & Developers:

This is opportunity capital. New hotels, restaurants, and offices may attract institutional and local entrepreneurs alike.

Local Context: Why Now?

  • Austin’s housing stock rose 57 % between 2010–2023, easing rents and home prices by ~10 % from peak levels statewide
  • Southeast Austin areas like East Riverside and Rainey Street show how cultural and infrastructural change fuels returns
  • The Row supports sustainable and inclusive growth with public green space and local hiring
