The Shoal
827 W 12th St, Austin, TX 78701, USA

Alexander’s overview
Shoal is an apartment building located far away from the core of Downtown. Shoal's selling point is downtown at cheaper rates. However they have tiny micro floorplans, and overall isn't a better deal than what you would get in an area like East Austin. Shoal overall has not been popular with my clients.
