Merriman Anderson Architects (MAA) announces construction has commenced on their Preserve at Mustang Creek project, an $88 million rental community located in Round Rock north of Austin, Texas. MAA provided architecture and interior design services for the three-story family friendly, garden-style project which includes 252 units, clubroom, indoor play space, outdoor playground, resort-style pool with grill stations, garages and covered parking. A large solar carport will offset 90% to 100% of common electricity use.
LS Black Development of St. Paul, Minnesota, is developing the 11.3-acre site at 1401 County Road 118 in Round Rock which will provide stylish modern apartments and amenities priced for affordability to households earning 30% to 60% of the area’s median income. MAA designed one- to four-bedroom configurations as well as Type A Accessible Units, and units equipped with accessibility equipment for residents with hearing and visual impairments.
Public financing assistance was provided by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, along with private financial partners on the project. In addition to MAA, professional consultants include Westwood Professional Services (civil engineering); BHB (mechanical, electrical, plumbing); Salas O’Brien (structural, facilities planning); and Cadence McShane Construction (general contractor).
Construction commences this month and is scheduled for completion in September 2025.
