1807 E Cesar Chavez - Historic Preservation Application Review David Rudick, President, Rud Capital Executive Summary Rud Capital is looking to gain a historic tax exemption available on 1807 E Cesar Chavez. We are looking to preserve 1807 and renovate it to be a boutique hotel to be rented in its entirety for large group gatherings with the option for small events. The property was run as a youth hostel up until the pandemic hit and led them to go out of business. The property was purchased by Rud Capital in November 2021 with the goal of folding it into the unified development parcel along with some of adjacent properties. In 2023 after talking with city and realizing this property could get a standalone hotel license we decided to pivot and restore this charming mansion and renovate the property. Unfortunately during late ‘22 and ‘23 the property began to get vandalized and had some of its structural integrity damaged and compromised including: decking, railings, columns and siding. The property was repaired by Chris Pisculli who is now overseeing the renovation along with the designer Leah Flippen from Luminary Designs. We are looking to go beyond these repairs and revive the historic Victorian like charm into a functioning event and lodging hotel called Maison Rêve (House of Dreams) for the benefit of local Austinates and visitors to enjoy. We are Excited to work together with historic commission on bringing out this beautiful landmark house back to life. It also worth mentioning that we have successfully completed similar types of historic preservation projects including 4004, 4006, and 4008 Avenue C which won the Austin Preservation Award in 2019. Project Description Property Overview 2,603 SF Built 1900 Land Size: 0.19 Acres Typical Floor Size 1300 Current State In need of repair and renovation following damage including graffiti, damaged decking. siding and railings.

4200 WILSHIRE PARKWAYDEMOLITION PERMIT APPLICATIONHISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSIONJULY 3, 2024www.emadiarch.comemadi MEET THE TEAM: OWNER: Meghan Hughes PROPOSAL FOR TOTAL DEMOLITION FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF THE HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION: Please consider the approval for total demolition of the existing failing single-story, single-family home at 4200 Wilshire Parkway that is well beyond its reasonable lifecycle and to allow the design and construction of a new single-story, single-family home for the current resident, Meghan Hughes. This is not a speculative design to be built and sold, nor is it a rental or STR cash-flow property - it is a dream home. As evidenced by the numerous support letters provided as backup, Meghan has gone out of her way to openly inform the neighborhood of her intentions, and introduce the proposed improvements and team to her neighbors. A resident at 4200 Wilshire for over 17 years, Meghan intends to build a sensible new home keeping with the neighborhood’s charm, character, and qualities that drew her to it in the first place. The team is a collection of local, award-winning professionals, many of which are UT Austin graduates, long-time Austin residents, or native Austinites with extensive experience designing, engineering, and building thoughtful, considerate, and appropriate projects in Austin. The team is familiar with design, engineering, and construction in residential settings benefitted by large trees and nearby bodies of water. As part of the proposed demolition process, we will be reclaiming as much of the existing limestone as possible, to be elegantly reincorporated into the new home’s design. Additionally, we have coordinated with the Austin Fire Department and nearby Station #14 to donate the home for controlled training prior to demolition. This training opportunity will include new, advanced life-saving technology for AFD’s consideration. From AFD: “We want to thank you for working with the Austin Fire Department to provide an acquired structure for training. The work we can do in a real building is invaluable and prepares us to face the challenges of an active structure fire in the city.” The neighborhood was invited by Meghan to open-house that occurred on June 20, 2024 with this presentation and the Architect available.
