Studios, 1BR, 2BR and street-level live/work residences in East Austin, steps from Mueller. Live pricing pulled weekly from the property's official website.
Solomon sits at 1414 East 51st Street, directly across from the Mueller master-planned community. This is East Austin's sweet spot: walkable to Mueller's HEB, Alamo Drafthouse, and Lake Park, but priced meaningfully below Mueller's own condos and townhomes.
The floor plan mix is unusual for the area. Solomon offers studios, 1 bedrooms, 2 bedrooms, plus a rare set of street-level live/work residences with a ground-floor commercial-ready space and residential above. If you're a small business owner or a remote worker who wants a physical presence without a separate lease, the live/work units are worth touring.
Every unit includes Bluetooth-enabled entry locks, smart thermostats, Wi-Fi smart lights, USB ports throughout, top-performing appliances, and built-in serving bars with wine fridges. Solomon is professionally managed by Greystar, one of the largest apartment operators in the country.
Solomon anchors the East 51st Street corridor between Airport Boulevard and Mueller. You're a 5 minute walk to Mueller's central spine and a 12 minute drive to downtown. This part of East Austin has undergone significant redevelopment in the past decade and the trajectory is still upward.
If you love this stretch of East Austin, buying in ZIP 78723 or the neighboring Mueller neighborhood might make more sense than renting long-term. The area has appreciated steadily and inventory is meaningful.
I'm a licensed Austin Realtor (TREC #788149). I don't lease apartments, I sell homes, but I've toured Solomon and I'll tell you honestly whether it's the right fit for your situation, or whether you should be looking at buying in this area instead.
