Special today: “Receive 4-8 WEEKS FREE\ on select lease terms.”. Checked November 4, 2026. "Nearby, typical" is the median within 0.5 to 1 miles.
Every home here pays $190 a month in fees on top of rent, plus a monthly internet fee the property doesn't publish an amount for. Totals are for the lowest priced home of each size.
On top of that: renters insurance. Utilities depend on how much you use.
Renters liability insurance is required (official FAQ); the fee guide lists it as third party, "varies" per leaseholder, from the resident's provider of choice.
From the property's own fee table: the property's fee page, read October 26, 2026.

A special comes off only when it reaches this home on this lease, worked out the daily way most leasing offices use for specials. A part the property posts no amount for shows as not posted, never as $0. Utilities are billed by use and not included. Open the full cost calculator

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 1 bedroom floor plan, each floor up adds about $20 a month. From floor 14 to 46, that's about $640.
112 available homes from floor 14 to 46, each against the middle of its own floor plan, from −$575 to +$235.
From 112 available homes across 7 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.
Waterline, the tallest tower in Texas, stands right next door. Most of what you see is its glass wall.
You look over the Rainey Street towers, starting with The Shore and Hotel Van Zandt next door. A 57 story tower has a city permit on East Avenue, on this side.
You look across Lady Bird Lake to south Austin, with Waller Beach and the lake trail below you.
You look over Waterloo Greenway's creek park to downtown, and down the lake to the Congress Avenue bridge and the bridges past it.
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: 6.5 hours of direct sun in July, 5.0 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.
225 available homes, November 4, 2026. Lowest rent on a 12 to 15 month lease, before the special.
The Travis is Austin's tallest tower built only for rent. A stair runs from the building down to the lake trail, and the pool deck sits on level 8. It opened for tours in June 2026, so nearly every review so far comes from a tour, not from living here. Rents and fees sit near the top of the area.
Every written review we found on two sites.
“Having the trail so close is great for having a dog.”
“the building is still coming together”
“so far the unit and building is 10/10”
Light part: the share that praise it.

The Travis opened in June 2026, and Genesis Residential runs no other building we could find. No review yet covers repairs, elevators or renewals over time. A realtor who toured in August 2026 wrote that the building was still coming together.
Fixed fees add $190 a month before utilities, and parking adds $175 to $500 per car. The fee guide sets the cost of breaking a lease at 200% and a move to another home at $2,000. Pick your lease length with care.
A 57 story tower has a building permit at 62 East Avenue (May 2026). The developer has long planned a second tower on this site, though we found no permit for it yet. East facing homes are closest to that work.
The street scores 69 out of 100 (higher is quieter), mostly from traffic. Rainey Street's bars are a short walk east, and new towers keep going up on the blocks around it.
FEMA puts this address outside its high risk flood area. Renters insurance doesn't cover floods, cars in the garage included.
The city issued 49 building permits within a third of a mile in the last year.
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.
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.

Studios at The Travis start at $2,930 a month, one bedrooms at $3,250, two bedrooms at $5,220 and three bedrooms at $8,590. Every lease adds $190 a month in fixed fees: a $150 amenity fee, $30 for trash and $10 for pest control. Internet is billed separately by home. The property's site shows this special today: “Receive 4-8 WEEKS FREE\ on select lease terms.” We don't take it off the rents on this page, and we find out which homes and terms qualify before you tour. The lowest priced one bedroom here runs $4.95 a square foot, against $3.05 at The Quincy and $4.62 at 700 River.
Yes, up to two pets per apartment. Each pet costs a $500 one time fee and $25 a month in pet rent, and approved service animals are exempt from both. The banned breed list includes pit bulls, Rottweilers, German shepherds, Dobermans, Akitas, Chow Chows, mastiffs, American bullies, Presa Canarios, Rhodesian ridgebacks and giant schnauzers. Mixes that mostly resemble them count too, and so does any dog with a history of biting or damaging property. No exotic pets, livestock, reptiles, snakes, birds of prey, insects or arachnids; hamsters, guinea pigs and gerbils are the only rodents allowed. The building has a 2,500 sq ft dog park and a pet spa.
Leases at The Travis run 6 to 18 months, and 6 months is the shortest. After your first lease ends, you can move to month to month, at the rates and terms in place then. Breaking a lease early carries fees set in the lease. The fee guide lists 200%, without saying of what, so ask for the lease's own wording. Moving to another home in the building costs $2,000. Renters insurance is required for the whole lease.
Yes. The Travis has a covered parking garage in its base, and each apartment can register up to two vehicles. The fee guide lists $175 to $500 a month per car, with reserved spaces inside that range. The garage has EV charging stations. Visitors on a tour park in spaces marked Future Resident.
The Travis is 50 stories and 562 feet, Austin's tallest tower built only for rent. A few sources count 51 to 54 floors. The tower has 423 homes at 80 Red River Street, in the Rainey Street District of downtown Austin. In 2022 JLL arranged its $173.4 million JPMorgan Chase construction loan, and GDA Architects (now KTGY) designed it.
The Travis has a lap pool that's open all year and a fitness center open 24 hours with a yoga and Pilates studio. There's a dry sauna, a 2,500 sq ft dog park and pet spa, and a clubroom with billiards and shuffleboard. It has podcast and recording studios, a coworking lounge, a 24 hour concierge and package lockers with refrigerated storage. Inside the apartments: quartz counters, white oak floors, floor to ceiling windows, 10 to 11 foot ceilings and a washer and dryer. Residents can pick internet from AT&T, Google Fiber or Charter cable, and satellite dishes aren't allowed. Storage rooms cost $80 to $150 a month, and bike and kayak storage is free.
Everyone 18 or older must apply as a leaseholder. Each person can apply and qualify on their own, but all roommates must qualify. Applications are screened through OneSite, with the same criteria for every applicant, and the property doesn't offer corporate leases. Bring a government issued photo ID to your tour. The fee guide lists a $100 application fee per leaseholder, a $300 admin fee and a refundable deposit of $500 to $2,000.
The Travis is at 80 Red River Street, Austin, TX 78701, in the Rainey Street District of downtown Austin. That's where Waller Creek meets Lady Bird Lake. I-35 is about half a mile northeast. The Rainey Street District has become one of Austin's densest clusters of towers. Waterline stands next door, and The Quincy, The Modern Austin Residences, Paseo and 700 River are all within a quarter mile.
No. All apartments at The Travis come unfurnished, and the leasing team can suggest local furniture rental companies. You can make changes to your home with management's approval, though you may pay to restore or repaint it at move out.
Yes, it's open. In person tours began June 15, 2026, and the first review from someone who had moved in came on July 4, 2026. Of the 50 written reviews we read on October 26, 2026, most come from tours or renters who had signed but not moved in. Only 5 writers say they live here, and 5 more are locators or realtors who brought clients.
Waterline, the tallest tower in Texas, opened next door in phases through 2026. The city issued a building permit on May 8, 2026 for a 57 story tower at 62 East Avenue, about 1,000 feet east. The developer has long planned a second tower on the rest of this site. We found no permit for it as of October 26, 2026.
