HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR 2022-026355 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICT 1317 WESTOVER ROAD C.12 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a 2 ½-story house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS A demolition permit for the contributing building at this property and plans for new construction were released by the Historic Landmark Commission on August 24, 2020. Due to design changes, the new construction plans are returning for the commission’s consideration. The prior project entailed construction of a two-story plus basement house and detached garage/guest house building. The current project consists of construction of a 2 ½-story house with complex massing. As viewed from the front, the main volume of the house is two stories with a side-gabled roof and shed-roofed dormer. In front of that volume is a front-gabled garage with a side-facing garage door, adjoined by a flat-roofed covered porch with a broad, segmental arched opening partially infilled by glazing. Above the porch is a second-story terrace with plantings. The house has brick walls, composition shingle roofing, and multi-light windows. DESIGN STANDARDS The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The house has a 35’ setback, which appears to be roughly comparable to neighboring properties. 2. Orientation 11. Attached garages and carports The house faces the street, with an attached garage on the front façade. Houses within this block generally have driveways to one side of the property that extend past the house to a rear detached garage or carport. The proposed ribbon driveway to the side of the property matches the pattern on this street. Although the front garage is not in keeping with neighboring properties, the impact of this element is minimized by a side-facing rather than front-facing overhead door. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed 2 ½-story house is out of scale with immediately neighboring properties, which are single-story, though there are two-story houses elsewhere on the block. The multi-story portion of the house is set back beyond a one-story gabled and flat-roofed volume, which serves to minimize its impact. 4. Proportions The house has balanced proportions that complement neighboring properties. The shape and proportions of the segmental arched opening at the front entrance …

Allen, Amber From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Wendy Price Todd Sunday, March 20, 2022 4:19 PM Allen, Amber; Brummett, Elizabeth; Phillips, Atha Demolition Oppositions, 3/28/22 Meeting Follow Up Flag: Flag Status: Follow up Flagged *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Liaison, Chair and Vice Chair of the Landmark Preservation Commission, I have received notifications for several of the eight applications that you are considering within the Travis Heights‐ Fairview Park National Historic District. The applicants for these demolition requests should be aware of the significance of the neighborhood and property or their cases would not be coming before the Historic Landmark Commission. The proposed projects in most cases, do not respect the scale and massing or materials and details of the district. As a member of the South River City Citizens Neighborhood Association, the organization that supported the Travis Heights‐Fairview Park National Historic District, neither the SRCC nor the Historic Preservation Committee that successfully applied for the designation has been contacted by any of the applicants to discuss their proposed projects. Yet, they proceed through the demolition and redevelopment process with no concern for neighborhood context, heritage trees, natural drainage patterns and other factors. While the purview of the Historic Preservation Department and the Historic Landmark Commission is limited, as city workers and civic volunteers, I urge you to ask the applicants to contact immediate neighbors as well as to make a presentation to the neighborhood association. Until that time, I object to the demolition of the following agenda items and cases in the Travis Heights‐Fairview Historic District being heard by the Historic Landmarks Commission at the 3/28/2022 meeting: C.1. 804 Rutherford Place – Travis Heights – Fairview Park National Register District – Demolish a contributing building and build new construction (postponed February 28, 2022) C.2. 512 E.

Each building has its individual merits deserving protection, but I would like to stress their value as a group to the overall fabric of our National Heritage District. Thread by thread, with each demolition, the District is unraveling. Please consider this fact: from 2010 through 2021, 1312 houses have been taken down in our zip code (78704), over 21% of all those in the City during that time.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-006510 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1505 ALAMEDA DR. C.3 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a ca. 1947/1985 contributing house. Construct a new single-family residence with a pool. 1) Total demolition of a ca. 1947/1985 contributing house. 2) Construction of a Contemporary-style single-family house with an attached rear carport. The proposed house is two full stories plus a penthouse and rooftop deck. The house has a flat roof with overhanging eaves; various siding materials including vertical wood, stucco, and metal panels; large, fixed windows with casement and hopper sashes; and a screened front porch. The carport opens onto the alley. 3) Installation of an in-ground pool in the front yard, behind a privacy wall. ARCHITECTURE Two-story, irregularly shaped stucco house that shows influences of the International style. A one-story portion of the house is capped by a steeply pitched shed roof. To the right, the second story projects to the front and side of the house, with the overhangs supported by pipe columns. This second-story volume has a flat roof with wide eaves. The front porch consists of a stoop with a flat-roofed overhang. Windows on both floors are steel casements. The second story of the house was added in 1985 based on multiple sources. Building permit records indicate an application to construct an “addition to residence to create a two-story residence” in 1982 that expired. A subsequent permit with the same project description is marked as passing final building inspection on July 24, 1985. Accompanying drawings for the permitted work are not available. Other evidence indicates the house was previously a single-story, one-bedroom house. The 1962 Sanborn map shows a small one-story residence on this lot. The house was a rental throughout most of the historic period, and classified ads that ran between 1953 and 1972 describe the house as a “small cottage” or “small house for a couple.” The ads vary in terms of how the rooms are described. The most complete description is that the house had a living room, dinette, kitchen, bedroom, and bath-shower. Through 1972, it is evident that the house had only one bedroom. In its present configuration, the house has two bedrooms and 1 ½ baths. See associated documents under Property Information below.

It is essential to the historic fabric of this historic community. There are many others who have decided to maintain the historic nature of their homes by adding to their needs. Its a very common practice! Individual rights do not supersede the community at large. We have designated Travis Heights worthy of a National Historic district for a reason. Anyone who is going to make an investment in our community should understand the need to maintain the intrinsic nature of the homes here and the long term value. Demolishing charming homes might pay off for speculators in the short term but at a cost to our community with irrevocable loss. Thank you for your time.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-021264 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1702 HARTFORD ROAD C.4 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS DESIGN STANDARDS The proposed new building is a modular structure, two stories in height, atop raised piers. It has a compound gabled and flat roof, with a flat-roofed entry porch. Fenestration includes fixed undivided windows with irregular placement throughout and fully glazed sliders and entry doors. It is clad in horizontal wood siding, 4’x4’ fiber cement panels, and corrugated metal. The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed new building is set back approximately 26’, consistent with surrounding buildings. 2. Orientation The proposed building is oriented toward the street. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s two-story height is generally taller than the surrounding contributing buildings, and its somewhat monolithic massing may impact compatibility with the rest of the district. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s proportions are not compatible with surrounding contributing buildings. 5. Design and style While the proposed building’s details are consistent with its styling and it is sufficiently differentiated from the historic buildings in the district, its fenestration patterns, cladding, and modular design contrast with its Tudor Revival neighbors. 6. Roofs The proposed gabled roofline appears mostly compatible, though the flat portions of the roof are largely incompatible. 7. Exterior walls While the proposed horizontal siding is appropriate, the fiber cement paneling and vertical corrugated metal are not. 8. Windows and doors The proposed fenestration pattern and window configuration appear mostly incompatible. 9. Porches The proposed porch does not appear to reflect and continue the size, proportions, placement, depth, and rhythm of porches on contributing buildings within the district. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The existing non-contributing building on the site was approved for demolition in 2022. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Comment on and release the new construction plans. LOCATION MAP C.4 – 2
