Regent Property Group Profiles The Hollows Luxury Community on Lake Travis for Real Estate Buyers and Investors Performing an Austin Home Search

Austin, Texas (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

Regent Property Group has released a detailed profile of the Lago Vista community, The Hollows, located a short 30 minutes from Austin, to give prospective home buyers an idea of the lush amenities waiting a short drive from the rush of city life. Northwest Austin shares shoreline with Lago Vista along Lake Travis, where The Hollows development is located. The luxury home community doubles as a secluded homestead for Austinites seeking a peaceful retreat in the hill country and as a vacation spot for city dwellers who want an escape to nature they can reach before dinner time. The master-planned development spans 1,400 acres, and boasts over 18 miles of scenic hiking trails, a marina, a Beach Club, dining and bar-b-que facilities, swimming pools, and an array of private amenities available to property owners.


Brian Talley, the founder of Regent Property Group, is an expert on this hill country resort property, providing video tours and online information for those interested in real estate in beautiful Lago Vista, home to The Hollows community. ?Set apart from the city, the sense of a small town combined with proximity to Austin and the beauty of the lake, woods, and hills is tough to beat in terms of desirability,? said Talley about the community?s draw.


The profile of the community includes detailed information about each amenity, including The Hollows Beach Club, a prime place for relaxing or spending time with friends and family. Active residents can wait until the evening to wind down at the Beach Club, as daytime offers volleyball, swimming, kayaking, boating, fishing, hiking, biking, and a fitness center to keep nature lovers entertained for a lifetime. A large covered marina housing motor boats, jet skiers, and sail boats is also available for property owners to house their water craft, refuel, or have a scenic picnic. Lake Travis has over 60 miles of shoreline to explore, most of which can only be reached by watercraft.


If escaping to a peaceful retreat every day sounds enticing, contact an Austin Realtor to see what Austin lakefront living has to offer.

Reliance Foundry and Maritime Hotel Help Build Community in New York City

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) December 07, 2011

In 2011, New York City announced that in the summer of 2012 they will implement a bike share program that will see 10,000 bike share bicycles available all over the city at 600 stations, creating the biggest bike share program in the nation. The bike share program is but one of the many ways that Mayor Bloomberg and the Department of Transportation is encouraging New Yorkers to switch from cars to bicycles.


Many businesses, like The Maritime Hotel, have been seeking to do this for years. In 2006, The Maritime began offering complimentary bicycles as an amenity to guests of their hotel. They saw this perk as a way to be considerate of their high numbers of European clientele (bicycling is more common in European countries as a way of transportation), as a way to enable guests to take advantage of the hotel?s close proximity to some great bicycle paths, and as a way to take action to reduce their overall carbon footprint.


Now, The Maritime and Reliance Foundry have made another step towards making New York City a better place for bicyclists and visitors. The installation of the R-8224-SS bike parking stands outside of the hotel not only encourages bicycling, they are becoming a place of community. Callen Polmer, Director of Sales and Public Relations for The Maritime, said that the bike stands provided by Reliance Foundry are quickly becoming a place where visitors to New York City find connection.


Polmer said, ?The bike stands are a great place for our guests to intermingle and become part of the neighborhood by integrating them into the thriving NYC bike culture.?


When a hotel can make its guests feel like they are more than just visitors to a city, they provide an experience that guests will want to return to. The Maritime has three different dining experiences available in their hotel, and offering the bicycle parking enables guests to come and dine without having to worry about locating parking on the narrow streets of New York, or in the expensive parking garage across the street.


NYC has also repurposed hundreds of parking meters to bike racks in their Meters-To-Bike Racks project. This is exciting news for cyclists, as meters on their own are not a secure bike stand option. By leaving the poles of the meters in place with some new hardware additions, options for secure bike parking have grown exponentially in the city of New York.


Reliance Foundry is pleased to be a part of this, as well as other New York City initiatives to provide bike stands for a healthier, more community-driven city.


Note: In NYC, businesses can request the city to install bicycle parking in front of or near their locations. Visit CityRacks program in NYC for information.
