Greystar’s 201-Unit St. John South Development Under Construction

The Northeast Austin project will deliver income-restricted apartments within a wider redevelopment.
Greystar’s St. John South development is under construction at 800 East St. John Avenue, bringing 201 income-restricted apartments into Northeast Austin’s housing pipeline.
The project forms part of the redevelopment of the former St. John site, where a longer-running program is reshaping the property for residential use.
With completion expected in March 2028, St. John South represents an active delivery phase within that broader effort. The income restrictions distinguish the apartments from conventional market-rate rental development.
The latest October 28 construction-status report adds visibility to the project’s progress. Work associated with the underlying redevelopment began earlier, making this an update on an existing construction program.
A construction value was not established in the supplied project information. The general contractor and mechanical and electrical teams have also not been independently confirmed.
The principal milestone is the project’s active construction status, with the planned apartments moving toward delivery over the next several years.
