HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS GF-20-140200 4509 BALCONES DRIVE D.7 - 1 PROPOSAL Construct an addition to a ca. 1959 residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Partially demolish exterior at north side of house. 2) Construct a single-story addition. The proposed addition features a flat roof, stone veneer and horizontal wood siding, a flat roof with exposed rafter tails, fixed and casement windows, and sliding glass doors. 3) Add casement and fixed windows at the west and north elevations. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Split-level house with horizontal and vertical wood siding; fixed and sliding undivided full- height and ribbon windows; a cross-gabled roof with gable-end detailing, exposed rafter tails, deep eaves, and triangular brackets; and Japanese-inspired decorative wood details at railings, roofline, and fenestration. The site is terraced with masonry retaining walls that follow the contours of its topography, softening the transition between house and landscape. The building at 4509 Balcones Drive was constructed in 1959 by architect David C. Graeber as his personal dwelling. Graeber, who moved to Austin to attend the University of Texas School of Architecture after building homes with his father’s lumber business in San Antonio, joined Kuhne, Brooks, and Barr in 1957. He became a firm partner in 1961. When the firm began consulting for the University of Texas in 1962, Graeber led the design teams for all new UT buildings for the next four years. He established Graeber, Simmons, and Cowan in 1978. Notable projects throughout Graeber’s career include the Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library, the All Faiths Chapel of the Austin State Supported Living Center, the Johnson Space Center in Houston, the U.S. Consulate in Mexico City, numerous high-tech firms in Austin, and pro-bono work at the Paramount Theater, the Long Center, and the Austin Convention Center. Graeber also participated enthusiastically in the revitalization of Austin’s downtown. Through a philosophy of “continuity, not conflict,” (Austin-American Statesman, 1965) he championed urban living and moved his family to Sixth Street in 1967, restoring and landmarking a nineteenth-century stone building where he lived for the next forty years. Since then, his vision of a skyscraper-filled residential downtown has come to fruition. He served on the boards of the Texas Society of Architects, Old Pecan Street Association, and other civic-minded planning and architecture organizations. In 1969, he chaired the Governor’s Conference on Urban Affairs, and later initiated Austin’s street tree planting program along Congress Avenue. STAFF …

D.8 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS GF-20-146072 1601 WILLOW STREET PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Partially demolish a ca. 1912 house and construct a new addition. 1) Demolish two-story portion of house. 2) Construct a two-story addition. The proposed addition includes a side gable set atop the existing roof, immediately behind the hipped ridgeline and intersected by a south (rear)-facing cross gable with exposed rafter tails. It is clad in horizontal wood siding to match existing and features double-hung 1:1 mulled and single windows with wood trim to match existing. The existing wraparound porch is extended to the east and south elevations, with all wood details to match existing. The roof is clad in composite shingles to match existing. 3) Add a masonry chimney to rear elevation. 4) Repaint existing siding, trim, railings, doors, and windows. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH The 2-story house is clad in horizontal wood siding and has 1:1 mulled and single wood windows. Its compound gabled and hipped roof is clad in composition shingles and features exposed rafter tails. Its first-floor wraparound porch is supported by Classical columns. The building at 1601 Willow Street was constructed between 1910 and 1912. The Thomson family, its first occupants, rented the home until James Thomson’s death in 1914; his widow remained in the home for at least another two years. A series of short-term renters lived in the house until 1924, when Leonard and Helen Gillaspy purchased it. It is likely that the Gillaspy family added the two-story portion of the house to accommodate renters, who appear in Austin directories in 1935. Leonard Gillaspy, a postal worker, passed away in 1938. His wife, Helen, married Uel V. Ives, a WWI veteran and American Legion luminary, by 1947; the couple lived in the home until the 1950s. Their daughter Helen and her husband Robert Primose lived with them after Robert returned from service in WWII until at least 1952. After a decade of short-term renters, the home was purchased by Augustin and Reyes Castillo in 1964. Augustin Castillo, a quarry worker, passed away in 1969; Reyes Castillo, a waitress, continued to live in the house until her death in 2017. She raised 11 children there, and her porch became a neighborhood nexus. In a 2016 Austin American-Statesman article, Michael Barnes asked Castillos’s sons what it was like to grow up in the house: “Mama’s house, because of …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0384 906 E. 13TH STREET D.9 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a one-story house. ARCHITECTURE One-story building with compound hipped and gabled roof and covered entryway. Clad in horizontal wood siding and stone veneer, the house has aluminum windows with iron grilles and a partial width covered porch shaded by a metal awning. A similar awning covers the house’s large picture window. RESEARCH 906 East 13th Street was constructed in 1949 for Boston P. Grant, III and his family. Grant, an Austin native and longtime Texas educator, had just returned from a stint in San Marcos as principal of the Negro school there. As a former mathematics professor at Samuel Huston College and a former department head at Anderson High School, Grant was already well-established in Austin’s educational community prior to his return to Anderson as counselor in 1947. As one of the first certified school counselors in Texas, Grant pioneered career training programs, testing reform, and vocational mentoring at Anderson. He advocated for testing strategies that were tailored to his African American students, understanding that their educational and vocational needs were uniquely challenging in segregation-era Texas. Above all, Grant encouraged educators and counselors to listen and learn from their pupils, and to foster an environment in which young people could speak freely about their feelings as they looked toward the future. Grant’s daughter, Deloria H. Grant, took possession of the home after his death in 1980. Grant, a Samuel Huston alumnus like her father, became a licensed vocational nurse who cared for some of Austin’s most prominent families. Deloria H. Grant passed away in July of 2020. STAFF COMMENTS Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2- 352). The property may demonstrate significance according to City Code: a) Architecture. The house is constructed with Minimal Traditional influences. b) Historical association. The house is associated with educator Boston P. Grant, III. c) Archaeology. The house was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d) Community value. The house does not possess a unique location, physical characteristic, or significant feature that contributes to the character, image, or cultural identity of the city, the neighborhood, or a …

The development will contain 376,901 net square feet of residential space, equaling 392 dwelling units, 7,206 square feet for a ground floor market and 6,034 square feet of restaurant space on the second level. No streets will be permanently closed with this project; however, development will be designed such that the project will not have an impact if the City elects to turn Rainey Street into a festival street. The existing alley will be vacated, but will continue to function as an alley with the building constructed above. This project is located at the center of the Rainey neighborhood and will not have an impact on neighborhood edges. Public art is proposed on the northwest corner of the building, on the façade facing Rainey Street. This is envisioned to enliven the street and help celebrate the culture of the Rainey Street District. The project is not located in a Capitol View Corridor and has been designed as a point tower and to be stepped back from the street to minimize impacts. This project is not designed to replicate any historical styles. The project is situated to respect the historic nature of the Rainey District by utilizing native plantings to serve as green walls throughout the exterior of the building, including the north elevation adjacent to historic bungalows, with textural masonry, concrete, and metal with vegetation to soften the appearance of this modern tower. All mechanical equipment on the rooftop will be screened and incorporated into the project. Additionally, an elevated pool deck on the western portion of the 12th level of the tower will be designed as an outdoor amenity space, with ample native plantings and vegetation. This will not be a themed development.
