New in North Austin

North Austin has added a lot of apartments over the past few years, and in a listing photo most of them appear interchangeable. The differences emerge in three places: what comes standard inside the home, which shared spaces exist and whether you can actually reserve them, and where the building sits relative to your daily commute. This guide covers what to compare when you explore new apartments in North Austin, using The Met at 10101 Metropolitan Dr as the working example.

Studio, 1BR, or 2BR?

Square footage tells you less than layout does. A 546 square foot studio and a 606 square foot one bedroom are close on paper, but they live differently once a wall goes up between the bed and the sofa. The Met offers studio, one bedroom, and two bedroom floorplans in North Austin ranging from 546 to 1,377 square feet, and this guide compares them using the actual plans instead of general rules of thumb.

The Met Amenity Guide

The Met sits at 10101 Metropolitan Dr in North Austin, and the amenity list runs long enough that it helps to know what you would use on a Tuesday versus a Saturday. This guide covers the community spaces at our luxury apartments in North Austin, what each one is set up for, and where it sits in the building. Photos of every space are on the gallery page if you want to browse before you read.

North Austin Apartments

North Burnet has become one of the most connected residential addresses in Austin. It’s close enough to The Domain's shopping and dining to use it on a Tuesday, close enough to Q2 Stadium to make an Austin FC match last-minute decision, and positioned on MoPac and US-183 for commutes across the city's major tech corridor. The Met at 10101 Metropolitan Drive sits at the center of that picture. This guide covers what surrounds the address: the shopping and dining at The Domain, the game-day experience at Q2, the parks and local spots nearby, and the commute reality for North Austin residents.
