Endeavor Real Estate Group Cleared for 2,600-Acre Dog’s Head Mixed-Use Project in East Austin

Austin City Council approved a 45-year agreement for Endeavor Real Estate Group to develop the 2,600-acre 'Dog's Head' mixed-use project in East Austin.

The Austin City Council has officially approved a 45-year development agreement to annex and transform a 2,600-acre parcel known as the “Dog’s Head” tracts along the Colorado River in East Austin. The site, currently owned by an LLC with ties to Endeavor Real Estate Group, is slated for a large-scale mixed-use project that may incorporate housing, commercial space, and industrial facilities. City officials project the development could generate up to $3.5 billion in tax revenue over the next three decades.

The project has faced pushback from community members and environmental advocates concerned about the expedited approval process and potential flood plain impacts. Despite these objections, the city and the developer are moving forward, with representatives for Endeavor noting the site’s potential scale and its suitability for a Fortune 100 anchor tenant. While the developer expects approximately 20% of the land to be paved, they have committed to integrating parkland and bike trails into the site design.
