Reviews are progressing for the Greater Austin YMCA 's redevelopment of its TownLake center near downtown, anchored by three residential towers rising more than 400 feet.

Alongside those high-rises and an expanded YMCA, the nonprofit is also partnering with Foundation Communities on an affordable housing complex on the Old West Austin property. President and CEO Kathy Kuras called the project a "once-in-a-generation opportunity" for the city.

"Not only will the redevelopment provide a much-needed modernized facility that will serve as an economic driver for all YMCA’s and child care sites across Greater Austin, but the project will deliver broad environmental and public benefits for all," she said in a statement.
