History & Transformation of Mueller

Before its transformation into a vibrant mixed-use community, the land served as Austin’s official airport from 1936 to 1999, named after former Austin City Commissioner Robert Mueller.

Airport Closure & Citizen-Led Visioning (1999 – 2004)

Following the 1999 opening of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA), the City of Austin collaborated with community stakeholders to create a redevelopment plan. The goal was to build a sustainable, walkable, mixed-income community that avoided suburban sprawl.

A National Model for Urban Redevelopment

Groundbreaking began in 2007. Over the following two decades, Mueller grew into a bustling community housing thousands of residents, healthcare complexes, and tech offices. Today, Mueller stands as an internationally celebrated example of adaptive urban reuse.
