Great property, location, amenities - can be loud from train

The location is amazing - close to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Lake Austin, and all of the downtown amenities. The only drawback is the train can be loud as it passes right through the apartment area. I would recommend this property if you're willing to pay a premium for location and convenience.

Great location, nice building

Gables Park Plaza is in a great location, right on the river and downtown in walking distance to many other students’ apartments and the West 6th bars where tons of business school students go on the weekends. It is a nice building with a gorgeous pool and modern interior, and over a dozen students live here each year.

Best location in town

GPP sits just on the edge of downtown and just seconds away from the Town Lake trail. It's great for pet owners with lots of green space nearby and those who love to be outside. It's also a short walk away from many of the bars/restaurants you will frequent in a post-COVID world. I could not recommend this place enough for pet owners and couples.

Love this location for the price!

The location is amazing! I love being next to all the walking trails, Trader Joe's and whole foods, and West Sixth Street but not paying over $2000 like some downtown apartments. There are some noises with the train, but I honestly learned to drown them out pretty quickly.

Good Value

Cons:

Noise: If your unit is facing Lamar expect some noise (traffic/train) during the day, it is not a deal breaker in my opinion but be aware if you are sensitive to noise.

Pros:

Location: Excellent, near the river, Trader Joe's and Whole Foods. UT's Lake Austin Shuttle stop is a couple of blocks away and drops you off a block from Rowling Hall.

Gym: Decent size, decently equipped with a very nice view of the river.

Pool: The pool area is large but the pool itself is small, although I have never seen it packed.

GPP

Time at Park Plaza has been great. The location is fantastic near the river, and the park across the street is great for pets. Building can be a little secluded as far as parts of downtown goes, but it is accessible - you have to walk a tad further and around the train tracks. Rent is expensive, but about on par with other complexes.

GPP

Mid rise apartment in great location on the lake. Coffee shop across the street and very close to Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods. Only major negative is that it’s next to the train so avoid apartments on the north side of the building.

Prime Location

Direct access to trail around lady bird lake; central location is convenient for getting to campus, downtown, or south of the lake. Can get congested outside of the apartment complex. Rooftop pool is great in the summer!

Downtown Austin Reviews

81 reviews
This is a great neighborhood. It's not as hectic as it may sound. There are tons of restaurants, bars, and shops nearby. We have Trader Joe's and Whole Foods within a short walk (Trader Joe's is 42 seconds away). There are so many bus routes that it's easy to get anywhere (including school). It's a little pricey, of course, being downtown, but I thought it was worth it.

The river, with the running/walking trail, and kayak rental spots is super closeby.
Downtown Austin is where all of your friends that live elsewhere come Thursday-Saturday nights. Depending on where you are in downtown, you are never more than a few blocks away from great food or nightlife options, and there is always plenty going on. Plus, you have tons of public transport options, easy access to Lady Bird Lake and the trail system, and the new library is a great spot to study.
The neighborhood is located in DT austin near bars, restaurants, and shops. It's walkable to most places west of I35 and there is public transportation near the complex. The neighborhood is pretty safe but I do hear about some problems with car break-ins because the garage gates are open most of the time.
Downtown is a great landing spot if you are moving from a large city. I moved from DC and found the downtown Austin scene to be immediately familiar.

I would recommend it if you have no ties to Austin and don't really have an idea or preference on where to live.
You can walk to Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or 6th Street and access to Town Lake is a 5 minute walk as well. Really centrally located and easy to get to other parts of the city by public transport when needed.
By far the best area to live in if you want to go out to bars and restaurants on a consistent basis (which you most likely will once you have an internship lined up).
Great neighborhood! Many other students live in the properties around Gables West and its proximity to nightlife and the river is unmatched.
The neighborhood itself is relatively quiet, mostly office buildings. It's west of campus but across 15th street. The block is quiet but it's easy walking distance to N Lamar and 15th Street for bus transit. The neighborhood itself is great for pets but management doesn't allow pets in the building.
