In East Austin, Workbench is redefining what a modern mixed-use Austin development can deliver—combining sustainability, community, and long-term value in one integrated project.
Located at 2422 East Seventh Street, the four-story mass timber office and retail building brings together a group of aligned owner-operators, including Lindgren Development, to invest in and occupy the space they helped create.
A Partnership-Driven Development Approach
Lindgren Development partnered early to support the project with capital, strategic alignment, and development expertise—helping bring together a team committed to execution and long-term performance.
This approach reflects Lindgren’s model: working alongside experienced partners to structure projects that balance risk, strengthen sponsorship, and deliver durable returns.
Sustainable Design That Performs
Workbench showcases the potential of mass timber construction in Austin, reducing embodied carbon while creating warm, efficient workspace environments.
Key features include:
• Exposed timber structure with lower carbon impact • Abundant natural light and shaded façade design • Outdoor patios on every level and a shared roof deck • EV charging and energy-efficient systems
Built for Flexibility—and the Community
Designed as a flexible workplace, Workbench supports collaboration across tenants while creating a strong connection to East Austin.
Retail space at street level activates the neighborhood and reinforces the project’s role as both workplace and destination.
Delivering Value in Austin’s Growth Market
Now open and nearly fully occupied, Workbench reflects a broader trend in Austin development: projects led by aligned partners, backed by thoughtful capital, and focused on long-term value creation.
