HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APRIL 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0153 311 W. 6TH STREET D.8 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1927 commercial building. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, flat-roofed brick commercial building with a decorative stepped parapet and raised brick belt courses in the front wall and corner posts; modern, replacement metal and plate-glass storefront. The original ca. 1927 building has a ca. 1991 addition to the right, which resembles the original building in materials, scale, and ornamentation, but is set back from the façade of the original building. RESEARCH The building appears to date from ca. 1927, and was first the home of a Maytag appliance store, which was in business here until around 1931. Interestingly, prior to the construction of this building, the Salvation Army Hall was on this site, reflecting that this section of downtown still had its rough edges as a part of the city’s old red-light district, with saloons, gambling halls, and warehouses dominating the neighborhood to the south. Italian immigrants Onorato del Curto and Pasquale Caruso opened the Standard Market delicatessen here in 1931; Caruso and his family lived in the house just south of the building for many years. Caruso became the sole proprietor of the business around 1933 and changed the name to Caruso’s Café and Delicatessen, and was one of a very small number of Austin restaurants serving Italian food at the time. Caruso dropped the delicatessen aspect of the business in the mid-1950s; Caruso’s Café was in business here until he passed away in 1966. The building has had several subsequent restaurants since Caruso’s closed, and remains a restaurant space today. There is a ca. 1991 addition to the west of the original building. STAFF COMMENTS The building was listed as a Priority 2 for research in the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984). Staff has evaluated this building for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the building does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The building is a one-story brick commercial building with some ornamental brickwork in the raised bricks forming patterns in the storefront and the stepped parapet wall; however, the storefront has been modified with the installation of a modern metal-framed window and door system. The building reflects a common type and does not appear to have the architectural distinction to qualify as a historic landmark. …

C14H-77-015 - ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2020-0032 (C14H-77-015) DISTRICT: 9 Freedman’s C ZONING FROM: CS-MU-H-NP TO: CS-1-MU-H-NP ADDRESS: 2402 San Gabriel Street SITE AREA: 0.23 acres (10,018 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Hilltop Venture SH (TX) LP (Edward Johnson) AGENT: Johnson Trube and Associates (Edward Johnson) CASE MANAGER Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommendation is to grant commercial-liquor sales – mixed use - historic landmark – neighborhood plan (CS-1-MU-H-NP) combining district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION: April 27, 2020 PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: MAY 26, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 11, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES No issues have been identified for this request. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject historic building is surrounded by a new eight story student housing building on the northwest corner of West 24th Street and San Gabriel Street, addressed as 2402 San Gabriel C14-2020-0032 2 Street. The two-story limestone building, is a designated Austin Historic Landmark known variously as the Austin Gold Dollar building, Reverend Jacob Fontaine building, Franzetti’s grocery store and Freedman’s building. The request is for a building footprint rezoning of 0.083 acres (3,621square feet) to permit a cocktail lounge/restaurant in the historic building. Several new, midrise residential buildings have been built north of West 24th Street. Some of the new buildings are mixed use with ground floor retail and personal service uses. There are wide sidewalks and under-building parking. These features make the neighborhood walkable. Much of the demand for goods and services in this mixed-use neighborhood will come from the residents and workers within the neighborhood. The stone structure built in 1869, is the last remaining building from Wheatsville, an African- American neighborhood. The building was the home of Rev. Jacob Fontaine, a Baptist minister and former slave known for his community leadership and newspaper publishing. In 1876, Fontaine founded and published the Austin Gold Dollar, a weekly newspaper from his home, the two-story, limestone building. Austin Gold Dollar was the first black newspaper west of the Mississippi River. Fontaine also established the New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in the building in 1887 and later operated a laundry and grocery in the building. The Franzetti family purchased the building in the 1920s and added a wooden porch to the façade in 1923. Members of the Franzetti family lived in the building until the …

I object to the demolition of 1519 E Cesar Chavez and am in favor of designating it as having historical significance. If anything speaks to the re-vitalization of the East Side, itʼs this building and the tenants within. Bufalina is an East Side institution. Furthermore the building itself was revitalized for itʼs current tenants from the empty shell it was when I first moved to the East Side over a decade ago. My Name: Martin Note My Address: 1601 E Cesar Chavez St #203 Iʼll work promptly to find an envelope to mail my response to you before the 27th.
