AUSTIN (ABJ) — More housing could be built along East Riverside Drive at a site that currently holds a Baby Acapulco restaurant.
Grayco Partners, a Houston-based development firm, is seeking to add 1.4 acres at East Riverside Drive and South Lakeshore Boulevard into an existing planned-unit development. That change would allow for up to 357 housing units to be built on the site. The developer could also develop buildings up to 180 feet on the property if it is added to the PUD. Grayco wants the 1.4-acre site added to the South Shore PUD, which was created in 2009.
There are no indications that the restaurant is closing anytime soon. It could make its transition around the time a train stop is added nearby in the coming years.
