19 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152804 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 201 PARK LANE PROPOSAL Construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new building is a two-story house clad in masonry with vertical siding accents. It has a roughly trapezoidal plan, conforming to the lot shape. Its irregular roof is clad in standing-seam metal, with a large dormer at the rear elevation. Fenestration includes fixed undivided windows throughout and fully glazed entry doors. The existing building was approved for demolition in 2022. 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building appears to be located appropriately on the triangular lot. 2. Orientation The proposed building’s orientation is compatible, with the carport and drive opening onto the secondary street. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s height is somewhat incompatible with nearby one-story contributing buildings. Its massing and scale appear more monolithic than nearby contributing buildings. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s irregular proportions are not compatible with the surrounding district. 5. Design and style The proposed design and style is consistent throughout; however, it does not reflect the character of the district. 6. Roofs The proposed irregular roofline is not consistent with rooflines of contributing properties in the district. While the large dormer appears overwhelming, it does not appear visible from the primary street frontage. 7. Exterior walls The proposed masonry and vertical siding are somewhat incompatible with the surrounding district. 8. Windows and doors Proposed irregular, undivided windows are not compatible with the district. 11. Attached garages and carports The proposed carport appears compatible, and its location at the secondary street frontage is consistent with other properties in the district. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Modify roofline and fenestration to be more in keeping with the neighborhood. Add more fenestration and use fewer masonry elements, taking cues from the surrounding contributing buildings (e.g., lap siding, shingle roofing, gabled or hipped roofline). Do not use a shed roof on the dormer, though the dormer position at the rear of the building is favorable. Reconsider vertical siding, as it appears to overwhelm the building form in renderings. …

20 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152879 WILLOW-SPENCE 1020 SPENCE STREET PROPOSAL Partially demolish and construct an addition to the rear side of a ca. 1912 contributing building. Construct a garage apartment at rear of lot. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construct a rear addition two-story addition to the existing one-story house. The addition is connected to the main house by a glass hyphen. It is clad in stack bond brick, stucco, and vertical wood siding. The roofline is mostly flat and clad in TPO, save for a small section of standing-seam metal shed roofing. Fenestration is mostly fixed, undivided, and vertically oriented. 2) Construct a two-story detached garage apartment with alley access at the rear of the lot. Proposed finishes and roofline appear to match the new addition. 3) Replace siding, windows, and roof and move the front door at the main house. Construct an accessible ramp and handrail to the front porch. The proposed window and door replacements modify original openings and window configurations. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story National Folk house with pyramidal hipped roof, board-and-batten siding, and inset partial-width porch supported by turned posts. Fenestration includes double entry doors and 1:1 wood windows. The 1985 Willow-Spence National Register Historic District nomination describes the house as “a one-story, board-and-batten cottage with a hipped roof and corner porch. Many architectural details are intact, including a Victorian comer-porch column. New elements include a cement foundation, steps, and porch floor.”1 The house at 1020 Spence was constructed around 1912 as a rental property. Its architectural details share many similarities with “Hofheinz houses,” distinctive National Folk houses rented out in East Austin to working-class families during the early years of the twentieth century by Edmund and Oscar Hofheinz. From the East Austin Context Statement (East Austin Historic Resource Survey), Vol. 1, p. I-40: The first two decades of the 1900s were rampant with development throughout the East Austin survey area …residential construction in these new developments reflected evolving trends in domestic designs, as the eclectic tastes of the Victorian era waned and simpler styles and detailing became more widespread. Among the poor and working classes, new house types began to replace more traditional forms. The linear, one‐room‐deep plans that featured gabled roofs…gave way to a new generation of houses with deeper, more box‐like plans and often had hipped or pyramidal roofs with inset porches. The effect …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-155521 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK 1907 KENWOOD AVENUE 21 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolition of an existing quadplex and new construction of a duplex. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Total demolition of a circa 1947 duplex that has been converted to a quadplex, a contributing structure to the Travis Heights National Register District. 2) New construction of an interior split-level, two-story duplex using brick, stucco, and clear sealed wood. ARCHITECTURE The structure is circa 1947 Contemporary Style brick and tile quadruplex with a flat roof. The structure is built into the hillside, initially with garage space down, like a walk-out basement plan. The Contemporary Style house typically could be built on steep hillsides where Ranches and even Split-levels would be challenging to place. The house appears to be a single story from the street, but downhill reveals a two-story structure. The fenestration seems to be original 4:5 metal frame casement windows, with a slightly recessed central entry on the front façade. The second street-level unit is accessed via a side entry door. The rear façade reveals a partial width upper and lower balcony with rear stairs for accessing the rear-facing living units. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS The property first appears in the 1949 Citywide directory as rented by Marvis and Bess Bell, with Mr. Bell’s occupation listed as a “salesman.” It was followed by several other renters, such as Robert E. Rips and Nina Brewer, whose occupations were not listed. The interior was repaired and remodeled in 1960. 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: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project seeks to demolish a historic building that provides four living units and replace it with compatible new construction which will only offer two living units. Repair and rehabilitation are always recommended over demolition. Furthermore, historic housing stock is more affordable than new construction, and the project proposes demolishing four existing housing units. The replacement will be two new construction units, which will likely be less affordable than those it replaces. Residential new construction 1. Location The new construction project is sited appropriately from the street and in keeping with the rhythm of other contributing structures. 2. Orientation The project …

22 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION /PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-155536 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 1407 ALTA VISTA AVENUE PROPOSAL Remodel a ca. 1932 duplex to convert it to single-family use. Demolish a detached garage and construct a new garage apartment in its place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Convert duplex to single-family use. Change roofline, remove double entryways and gables, replace siding, replace windows, replace doors, replace porch. Materials include painted aluminum roofing, fiber cement siding, metal windows with wood casing and trim, and painted metal railing. 2) Demo existing garage and build new detached garage apartment. The proposed garage apartment is one and one-half stories in height, with a shed roof and fixed undivided windows. A full-height vertical screen structure accents horizontal fiber cement siding, and a round window appears at the west elevation above a concrete and wood retaining wall. A metal fence to match the main house’s porch guardrail surrounds the garage. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Two-story Tudor Revival duplex with symmetrical plan, wood siding, and decorative steeply pitched entry gables with ornamental bargeboards, friezes, and brackets. The duplex at 1407 Alta Vista was constructed around 1932 as a rental property for Mrs. John L. Smith. Residents were mostly short-term, and included military servicemen, University of Texas students, clerks, state government employees, and hospital employees. 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: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed alterations remove the remaining character-defining features of the house. 3. Roofs The proposed alterations do not retain the historic roof configuration, pitch, eave detailing, decorative elements, or design. 4. Exterior walls and trim The proposed replacement siding appears appropriate. 5. Windows, doors, and screens The proposed window replacements further exacerbate the loss of material from the 2013 remodel. They do not match the size and details of the original windows in historic photographs and further alter openings. 6. Porches Though a historic photograph indicates that separate angled stairwells were original to the duplex, there is no precedent for a single angled stairwell leading to a centered entryway; the design does not appear to successfully convey its intended sympathy for the building’s historic form. Residential new construction 1. Location and 2. Orientation …

ARCHITECTURE 2212 E. Windsor is a two-story masonry residential construction with a flat roof and symmetrical façade with central, recessed entry. The home was modified with replacement windows, doors, significant first and second-story additions, and a balcony circa 2004. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Initial research into historical associations includes Paul Bolton, an Austin news commentator and politician circa 1946 who lived at the property. 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: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project seeks to demolish and construct a new front entryway as well as demolish a rear portion of a side wall. City- wide Design Guidelines encourage repair over replacement. However, the property appears to have been significantly altered and, therefore, would no longer qualify for historic landmarking due to a lack of historic integrity. 1.1 Do not remove intact historic material from the exterior of a building. 1.2 Always attempt repair first. Replacement should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary and for the smallest area possible. 1.3 When historic material must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, replacement materials should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. 1.5 When demolishing additions or features that were built after the building’s period of significance, minimize damage to the building. a. Stabilize and repair building walls that are exposed when non-historic additions or features are removed. b. Avoid demolition that removes historic structural systems or compromises the structural integrity of a historic building. 4. Exterior walls and trim Exterior walls should be repaired rather than replaced to minimize …

The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.1 Locate additions at the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.2 Set back additions from the front wall at a distance that preserves the perceived massing of the historic building, considering the pedestrian view from the opposite side of the primary street. a. Additions must be set back at least 20’ from the front wall of the historic building. 1.3 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the most noninvasive location and methods. 1.4 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The addition is located at the rear of the property and is setback initially 15 feet from the historic façade, which the proposed project deconstructs and reconstructs. However, there is a total loss of fabric in all other locations, including the rear and side walls. 2. Scale, massing, and height 2.1 Design the addition to complement the scale and massing of the historic building. 2.2 Design the addition to appear subordinate to the historic building. 2.3 Minimize the appearance of the addition from the primary street(s). The historic building’s overall shape as viewed from the opposite side of the primary street must appear relatively unaltered. 2.4 Additions are subject to a 20’ setback. They may be cantilevered 5’ towards the front wall, but may …

Historic (H) zoning is a zoning overlay which is added to the base zoning and does not change the base zoning itself. To qualify for City Historic Landmark status, a property must meet the local historic designation criteria outlined in Land Development Code Section 25-2-352. The City Historic Landmark Commission reviews all applications for City Historic Landmark designation, with the Austin City Council making final decisions on these designations. Once designated, all proposed exterior site and building changes (other than routine maintenance) to a historically zoned tract require advance review and approval by the City Historic Landmark Commission. I hope this helps! For more information on historic zoning, you may also check out the Historic Preservation Office’s website or contact preservation@austintexas.gov to submit questions or comments.

PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH 28 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 GF-2022-138179 1800 GUADALUPE STREET Demolish a ca. 1923 apartment building and detached garage. Three-story Colonial Revival-Federalist Style building composed of painted brick on the central portion of the building, wood siding on the side additions, and stucco on the front and rear porch overhangs. Hip-gabled metal seam roof with two chimneys, five dormers on the front of the building, four dormers on the rear, and a single dormer on each side of the building above small rooftop decks. 6:6 wood windows throughout except for 4, 12:12 windows on the front of the building, and a classic Palladian window with a simple masonry arch over the main entry with fanlight and sidelight. The building located at 1800 Guadalupe St was constructed as an apartment building sometime around 1923. The apartments were referred to as the Carmen Apartments from 1924-1959, per city directory research. Sisters Alice and Eunice Carman, daughters of Robert Clarke and Alice Carman, built the apartments for an estimated $18,000, according to a 1923 article. Alice Carman lived in and owned the building from 1952 until her death in 1962. It is remarkable that the property was built by two women in 1923. It was just shortly earlier in 1900 that every state had passed legislation granting married women the right to keep their own wages and to own property in their own name. The legal right of women to own and manage property is equal to men today, but full financial autonomy for women didn’t come about until late in the 20th century. It wasn’t until the mid-1970s that a woman could access a line of credit independently without a man to cosign her application. Ten years later, the courts ruled that a husband doesn’t have the right to unilaterally take out a second mortgage on property held jointly with his wife. Despite legal protections for property rights, women still struggle against a real estate gender gap. Research points out that women spend an average of two percent more than men to purchase a home and get two percent less return on their investment when reselling, a significant obstacle to economic parity that has yet to be overcome, and such inequalities may help explain part of the overall gender gap in wealth accumulation.1 Despite such inequalities, the Carman sisters built 1800 Guadalupe …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-138505; GF-2022-154522 1106 W. MONROE STREET 32 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH PROPERTY EVALUATION The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood historic resource survey lists the building as a stucco Tudor Revival dwelling with brick skirting in front of a ca. 1990 garage apartment. It features a central portico with steep central gable supported by oversized triangular brackets. A decorative vent and simple carved frieze ornament the gable end, and decorative screens obscure the windows. 1106 W. Monroe Street was constructed in 1937 by developer N. A. Dawson. Its first owners were mechanic Leo Barbo and his wife Myrtle. Ownership passed to electrician William B. Crouch and Cherry Crouch in the late 1940s. By the 1950s, laborer Felipe Gonzales and his family occupied the home. Son Guadalupe Gonzales, a military fireman, served about aircraft carriers during the 1960s and 1970s.1 The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood survey lists the property as a medium priority. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of prewar Tudor Revival architecture. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city.

33 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-137252; GF-2022-154584 2102 BOWMAN AVENUE PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1940 house and detached garage. ARCHITECTURE One-story stone veneer house with side-gabled replacement metal roof, partial-width front porch, exposed rafter tails, and 6:6 wood windows. RESEARCH 2102 Bowman Avenue was constructed by and for Thomas A. G. Graham, secretary-treasurer of the Enfield Realty & Home Building Company and founding member of Graham-Lundgren & Company, an insurance agency. Graham was a grandson of Governor Pease and a son of R. Niles Graham, founder of Enfield Realty, who constructed the Enfield, Westfield, Westenfield, and Tarrytown neighborhoods.1 2102 Bowman Avenue’s vernacular limestone styling is similar to company president Margaret Graham Crusemann’s Tarrytown dwelling, approved for demolition in 2022.2 According to a 2014 staff report by Historic Preservation Officer Steve Sadowsky, “Tom Graham was a book-keeper and accountant for the Enfield Realty and Home Building Company; he later became more active in the real estate aspect of the family businesses, and eventually branched out into insurance with other family members, forming the Enfield Agency, all located in offices at the Tarrytown Shopping Center on Exposition Boulevard.”3 In addition to his businesses around Austin, Graham served on the City Planning Board, and later on the school board after selling the home in the early 1950s.4 The Grahams’ later home at 2500 Galewood Place was approved for demolition in 2014.5 During the 1950s, the home was occupied by Margaret J. Harris, an elementary and high school teacher. PROPERTY EVALUATION Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high to moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is constructed in a vernacular style favored by the Tarrytown branch of the Crusemann and Graham families, who developed the area. b. Historical association. The property is associated with the developers of the Tarrytown area, with Thomas A. G. Graham as secretary-treasurer of the Enfield Realty and Home Building Company. However, his aunt Margaret Graham Crusemann, who served as president of the company, was more immediately associated with development in Austin. Margaret Graham Crusemann’s similar home at 2505 Indian Trail was approved for demolition in September 2022. Thomas A. G. and Mary Graham’s later home …
34 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-140670; GF-2022-154611 1313 NEWTON STREET PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Relocate a ca. 1927 house outside the city limits. The 2016 Bouldin Creek historic resource survey identifies the property as a Craftsman bungalow with wood siding. Its compound gabled roof, covered with corrugated metal, shelters a partial-width projecting porch, and triangular brackets are present at gable ends. Windows are wood and feature 3:1 wood screens. RESEARCH The house at 1313 Newton Street was built for Nora Eck as a rental property around 1927. Eck, who resided at 107 W. James Street1 and for whom the subdivision was named, constructed other rentals in the neighborhood as well, including 1303, 1309, and 1311 Newton Street.2 3 4 The home’s earliest occupants were Carl and Ada Putnam, though Ada Putnam moved shortly after her husband’s untimely death in 1932. The house was occupied by a series of short-term renters until Nora Eck’s 1944 death, when its ownership passed to Maude H. Spencer and her son, Glen. Maude Spencer owned and operated a Red and White store for a short time, then worked as a seamstress. Captain Glen W. Spencer, an Air Force pilot, served in World War II after becoming an instructor and civilian pilot for the Browning Aerial Service. Spencer was the first student to graduate from a Civil Aeronautics Authority training program at Austin High School in 1940.5 PROPERTY EVALUATION The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Survey lists the property as a medium priority and a contributing property to a potential historic district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria: historic period. a. Architecture. The building appears to be an intact Craftsman bungalow with replacement porch posts from the b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value.
