City Facilities and Properties
The City of Austin owns and leases properties located within the city and surrounding counties. These buildings and land are used for both public and City departmental use. The City also partners with private developers to repurpose formerly City-owned property in a manner that supports existing communities by bringing needed jobs, parks, housing and retail for a more “complete community” and strengthening neighborhood identity.
