What's changing in Southpark Meadows
Active apartment and residential construction permits issued in the past year for this area's zip codes. When a permit lands at a community we already track, we name the community instead of the raw address.
The proposed project of site improvement to an existing apartment (senior living) community. Work includes selective demolition and replacement of existing sidewalks to provide ADA and TAS compliant accessibility routs and repaving of existing parking areas striping and details as needed to meet current accessibility standards. An existing storage shed will be removed. Widening existing front porch on HC units only community building. All interior work is contained entirely withing the existing building envelopes and does not affect the site building footprints or exterior building configuration.
Live data: City of Austin issued construction permits (dataset 3syk-w9eu), pulled October 16, 2026, refreshed daily.
How this page stays honest
Prices and specials come from data we buy, our own checks of community websites and our team's daily research, never from ads. The deal ranking applies each special to a twelve month lease the same way our review calculators do. Age restricted 55 plus communities and fully income restricted properties are not mixed into these results.
