Located just north of The University of Texas, our modern studio showcases how a green building can coexist with an historic landmark, the Fruth House. Custom designed for comfort and to display photography, the creative living area achieves a spacious feeling. Completed in February 2012, it incorporates “green building” concepts: LED lights, solar panels, efficient heating/AC, and tankless water heater. A queen-sized Murphy bed, queen size convertible sofa, fully-equipped kitchen, and comfy furnishings on a century-old reclaimed wood floor provide visitors with a home base to explore Austin.  There is approximately 450 sq. ft. of air conditioned space plus a 70 sq. ft balcony with chairs and table. Centrally-located, guests can catch the UT shuttle (75 yards), or walk to UT (1 mile), Central Market, and nearby restaurants along the “Drag” (Guadalupe) and in Hyde Park; we are near several hospitals (Austin Heart, Seton, St. David’s, University Medical/Brackenridge, and Dell Children’s) and the Capitol. UT scholars, visitors, sports fans, athletes and live music aficionados—all are welcome to enjoy our Gallery House.

From the Gallery House apartment we can walk to many fine restaurants, groceries and cultural attractions available in The University of Texas area.
