No special on our last check. Checked November 4, 2026. "Nearby, typical" is the median within 0.5 miles.
Every home here pays $61.78 a month in fees on top of rent. Totals are for the lowest priced home of each size.
On top of that: parking from $150 a month if you have a car, and renters insurance. Utilities depend on how much you use; the building guesses about $170 a month.
Renters liability insurance is required: bring your own policy (the fee guide estimates $18.75 a month) or join the property's program at $18.75 to $21.25 a month. Going without a policy costs $15 a month.
From the property's own fee sheet, issued September 30, 2026: the property's fee page, read October 26, 2026.

The solid line is the middle of the asking rents for that size; the dashed line is the lowest priced one, where the cost card starts. From the tower's own listings. We started keeping this record on October 26, 2026 and have 9 days so far. Tap a home above to see its own price history.
For the same 2 bedroom floor plan, each floor up adds about $32 a month.
6 available homes from floor 9 to 14, each against the middle of its own floor plan, from −$72 to +$170.
From 6 available homes across 2 floor plans, compared within each plan so a bigger home never reads as a higher floor. Asking rents, November 4, 2026.
What each side looks at, how much sun it gets and what it costs.
A newer office tower stands across 7th Street. Residents say it blocked views this way when it went up.
You look out at downtown. One resident facing east and southeast hears live music from across the street on the balcony.
Residents call the south view of the city and the park beautiful. West 6th Street is one block away, and they say you hear bands and club bass until 2 a.m.
You look over Rio Grande Street and the low historic homes past it. Residents say this side is the quieter one, and the view stays open.
From the property's floor plans, read October 26, 2026. North is up.
When direct sun can reach each side, through a July day and a January day.
North: 4.0 hours of direct sun in July, none in January. East: 7.0 hours of direct sun in July, 5.5 in January. South: 5.0 hours of direct sun in July, 10.0 in January. West: 6.5 hours of direct sun in July, 3.5 in January.
Worked out from where the sun sits over Austin on July 15 and January 15 and the way each wall faces. A neighboring tower can shade a wall for part of that time.
Height here doesn't set the price as much as you'd expect. The same plan can cost more on a lower floor than a higher one, so compare homes, not plans.
17 available homes, November 4, 2026. Lowest rent on a 12 to 15 month lease, before the special.
Seven puts you a 6 minute walk from Whole Foods and one block from West 6th Street. Dogs have no weight limit, and the application fee is $35. Its weak spots run through ten years of reviews: elevators that break down, water leaks and break ins in the garage.
Every written review we found on six sites.
“far enough away from the "crazy" of 6th street but still walking distance to enjoy the bars and restaurants”
“The only thing I have experienced that I would say is bad is that the elevators break down a lot”
“they don’t have cameras in the parking garage, my motorcycle got stolen”

Residents describe a spring 2022 flood that damaged more than 60 homes and left hallways under repair for months. A leak in mid 2024 reached several floors. We found no news coverage of either.
Reviews from 2025 and 2026 report a stolen truck, a stolen motorcycle and cars broken into. Ask what cameras and gate repairs are in place before you rent a space.
The street scores 72 out of 100 (higher is quieter), mostly from traffic. West 6th Street's bars are one block south. Homes facing south or east hear music and bass Thursday to Sunday, and residents advise a north or west facing home.

SXSW. SXSW Conferences and Festivals run March 15 to 21, 2027, with SXSW EDU from March 13. The conference centers on the Austin Convention Center and its showcases fill venues across downtown, so expect crowds, full restaurants and slower rides that week. A move in or tour that week takes more planning. This tower is under a mile from the Austin Convention Center.
