One parking space comes with the rent. On top of that come utilities, which depend on how much you use.

    Lease terms to know

    • Each home is leased by its owner through a listing broker, so the application, deposit and pet terms can differ from home to home.
    • Minimum lease is six months and short term rentals aren't allowed (official FAQ). The 3206 listing asks for 12 months.
    • Some homes lease furnished (3104 and 4504 on 2026-10-26).

    What a higher floor costs

    Too few available homes share a floor plan here today to say what a higher floor costs.

    Is it right for you?

    The Modern is a new condo tower, not an apartment building: you rent one owner's home through that owner's broker. Finishes, furniture and lease terms change from home to home. Every home has a balcony and 10 foot ceilings, the amenities fill three floors, and a garage space comes with every lease we've seen. Only a dozen or so homes list at a time, and there's no leasing office.

    A good fit if

    • You want a brand new home with a balcony on every unit. Ceilings are 10 foot 4 inches, and walls are built with two separate layers for quiet
    • You'd use three floors of amenities: a heated 25 meter pool and gym on 16, sky lounges and dining rooms on 34 and 35
    • You want a garage space in the rent: every lease listing we read in October 2026 includes one or two reserved spaces

    Maybe not if

    • You want one landlord and one set of rules: each owner sets the deposit, pet terms and lease length, within a six month minimum
    • You want a wide choice of homes: the developer says the cap on leased homes is used up. Only about a dozen list at a time
    • You sleep lightly: the Rainey Street bars are right outside, and the area's noise score reads busy

      Renting from an owner

      Each home has its own owner, so repairs, deposits and lease terms run through that owner or their broker, not a leasing office. The association's manager, Worth Ross Management, handles the building itself and the concierge. We ask for each owner's terms in writing before you apply.

      Few reviews yet

      The tower opened in mid 2025. Of its 15 Google ratings, only two written reviews come from residents, and both give 5 stars. Others are about the ground floor bar, a sales agent or a visit.

      Noise: busy

      The street scores 66 out of 100 (higher is quieter), mostly from traffic. The Rainey Street bars are right outside the door, and the city logged an outdoor music complaint at the address in October 2026. The building's double paned windows and doubled walls are made to cut sound.

      Flood risk: low

      FEMA puts this address outside its high risk flood area. Renters insurance doesn't cover floods, cars in the garage included.

      Construction nearby

      The city issued 60 building permits within a third of a mile in the last year.

      Police reports

      In the last 12 months, 421 reports came in for this small area around the building. Of those, 71 were against a person. The average for an area this size nearby is 89.

      Keep our help free: on your first visit, tell leasing you're working with Austin High Rise Apartments. On your application, pick "Locator" under "How did you hear about us?" and write our name.

      Big event weeks nearby

      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.

      Questions people ask about The Modern Austin Residences

      Is The Modern an apartment building?

      No. It's a condo tower that opened in 2025, and each home for lease is owned by someone who rents it out through a listing broker. That means there's no leasing office, and finishes, appliances, furniture and lease terms differ from home to home. The building's rules set a six month minimum lease and don't allow short term rentals. We track every home listed for lease here and set up the showings for you.

      What fees come on top of rent?

      There's no building fee sheet, since each owner sets their own terms. No lease listing we read in October 2026 named a monthly fee on top of rent; the owners pay the association dues. One current listing asked for a $75 application fee, a deposit of one month's rent and a $500 pet deposit. The renter pays all utilities. Other homes can differ, so we ask for each owner's terms before you apply.

      Is parking included?

      In every lease listing we read on October 26, 2026, yes. Each home comes with one or two reserved garage spaces, and a few larger homes include spaces with EV chargers. One Google reviewer in August 2026 wrote only that the garage is horrible, without saying why. We look at the space that comes with a home on the tour.

      Does The Modern allow pets?

      Yes. The building allows two household pets per home plus up to two birds, and a third pet with an annual permit. The building documents restrict some breeds and exotic animals but don't publish the list, and each owner can set their own pet terms. The 16th floor has a dog run, a dog lounge and a dog wash.

      Which floors are the amenities on?

      The 16th floor holds the heated 25 meter pool, the spa, an outdoor theater, grills, the gym and the yoga studio, plus the dog run. Floors 34 and 35 hold the sky lounges, private dining and board rooms with a catering kitchen, and guest suites. The ground floor has a 24 hour concierge, a package room with cold storage and Modern Bar, a coffee and cocktail bar.

      Why are so few homes for lease?

      The building caps leased homes at 35% of the tower. The developer's FAQ said in early 2026 that it was out of leasing permits and keeping a waitlist. On October 26, 2026 we counted 11 active or pending lease listings on the MLS for the whole tower. Homes come and go quickly, so tell us the size and floor you want and we'll watch for it.

      How loud is it?

      The tower sits at the north end of Rainey Street, so bar crowds and music are close by. The area scores 66 out of 100 (busy) for noise, mostly from traffic. The windows are double paned and built to cut sound, and the walls between homes are built as two separate assemblies with an air gap. The two residents who've reviewed it on Google didn't mention noise.
