Block 21 is a $300 million mixed-use development complex located in the Second Street District of Downtown Austin, Texas.

Austin's eighth-tallest building, the W Austin Hotel and Residences and Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater, the live venue where Austin City Limits is recorded, are located here, [1] as well as 53,000 square feet (4,900 m2) of shops, restaurants and office space. [2]

The complex has been lauded for its eco-friendliness. [3]
