So much for “bare minimum Mondays” — Endeavor Real Estate Group is starting the week strong with a flurry of new project filings.

Endeavor, one of Austin’s most prolific builders, started with a pair of filings related to its new workforce housing project, Citizen House Gilbert. The combination of apartments and townhomes will target renters earning between 60 and 120 percent of the area median income, a metric defined by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. 

“As class A product has become increasingly expensive in Austin, workforce renters are opting for older class B/C properties or to relocate to peripheral suburban locations where the cost of living is lower,” reads a project description on Endeavor’s website. 

The apartment component of the project at 6103 North SH 130 will feature 360 units spanning 340,000 square feet. Endeavor also plans to build 196 townhomes across 300,000 square feet.  Endeavor estimates the work will cost $100 million and last two years, starting in June.

Endeavor has already developed a series of “Citizen House” projects in the fast-sprawling suburbs around Austin, in Pflugerville, Kyle and on Blue Bluff Road. The firm did not list an architect of record on its filings.

In another filing, posted Friday, Endeavor detailed plans to build a 367-unit apartment complex at 8440 Burnet Road. The development site is currently a strip mall, the Spectrum Shopping Center.

Work is expected to cost $65 million and run for two years. In the filing, Endeavor wrote that the 500,000-square-foot project will feature wood apartments, but it is unclear whether that means it is plotting a mass-timber project. 

Endeavor purchased the land in 2021. Atlanta-based Dwell Design Studio is the architect of record. 

As Endeavor works through these multifamily projects, it is also active in the city’s office development scene. The firm is leading the multi-building redevelopment of the former Austin American-Statesman offices on the south shore of Lady Bird Lake, and recently filed plans to build a $61 million office tower at 504 Walsh Street.
