HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 5, 2022 HR-2022-132714 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1810 MOHLE DRIVE 20 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new residence and detached garage PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) The proposed primary building is two stories, with a gabled roof. It is clad in horizontal and vertical siding. Fenestration includes fixed divided-light windows of varying configurations arranged in a regular pattern, as well as glazed entry and exit doors and French balcony doors. The inset porch, beneath a cantilevered second-story gable, is supported by metal posts and shaded by a flat roof, which extends toward the rear as a breezeway connecting the detached garage. 2) The proposed garage is a single-story gabled structure oriented toward the secondary streetscape. It is clad in horizontal and vertical siding to match the proposed main building. 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. Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed primary building is set back approximately 25’, and the secondary building is located at the rear of the lot. 2. Orientation The proposed orientations of the primary and secondary buildings appear consistent with the surrounding district. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed primary building is larger in scale, more monolithic in massing, and taller than surrounding contributing buildings, though the articulated porch and stepped gables appear to somewhat mitigate its visual impact. 4. Proportions The proposed primary building’s proportions are not consistent with surrounding buildings’ proportions. 5. Design and style The proposed design and style are somewhat compatible. 6. Roofs The proposed gabled roofline is mostly compatible, though the wraparound flat-roofed breezeway is less compatible. 7. Exterior walls Exterior materials are somewhat compatible, though limiting vertical siding to single-story masses may reduce the building’s verticality. 8. Windows and doors Proposed fenestration is mostly compatible, though a front-facing front door would be more compatible than the current door, which faces the secondary streetscape. 9. Porches Proposed porches and balconies are mostly compatible, though a projecting porch—rather than the integral porch set beneath the cantilevered gable of the second floor—would help to step larger masses back, reducing visual weight. Summary The project meets some of the applicable standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK The existing building was previously approved for demolition by the Historic Landmark Commission.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 5, 2022 HR-2022-133067 WILLOW-SPENCE 1201 CANTERBURY STREET 21 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct an apartment atop the existing detached garage. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed ADU is located at the rear of the lot. It adds 1.5 floors to the existing detached garage. The proposed ADU is clad in horizontal cement board siding and is capped by a gabled metal roof with shed dormers. Fenestration includes fixed undivided clad-wood windows, horizontal sliders, and fully glazed doors, as well as garage door facing the secondary street frontage. 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 ADU is sited at the location of the existing detached garage, approximately 21’ from the main house. 2. Orientation The proposed building is oriented with its garage bay facing the secondary street, as does the existing garage. 3. Scale, massing, and height While the proposed ADU is significantly taller and more massive than the existing house, its location at the rear of the lot may mitigate the potential for overwhelming the main house. 4. Proportions The building’s proportions do not correspond to the proportions of nearby contributing buildings. 5. Design and style The proposed ADU is somewhat compatible in design and style. 6. Roofs The proposed building’s roof is somewhat compatible, though the large side dormers may be visible from the primary streetscape. 7. Exterior walls The proposed ADU’s exterior cladding appears appropriate. 8. Windows and doors Proposed fenestration is somewhat inappropriate, as the north-facing wall is mostly windowless. Summary The project meets some of the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Willow-Spence National Register district. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Comment on and release the plans. LOCATION MAP 21 – 2

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 5, 2022 SB-2022-135187; GF-2022-139867 CONGRESS AVENUE 900 CONGRESS AVENUE 22 – 1 PROPOSAL Install a sign on a non-contributing building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed channel letter sign is located at the south elevation of 900 Congress Avenue. Its white vinyl letters are halo- lit with white LEDs atop an aluminum background. It is approximately 72 square feet in area. The façade module currently contains an existing non-compliant sign with internally lit text of approximately 259 square feet in area at the top of the building. DESIGN STANDARDS The Guidelines for Signs in Historic Districts or at City Historic Landmarks are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Number of Signs: The Commission allows one sign per building, unless the building has multiple tenants; in this case, the Commission may allow one sign per façade module, if the façade modules correspond to tenant spaces. The Commission may also allow one sign for each street frontage if the building is at an intersection. A single directory sign is appropriate for a large building with multiple tenants. The proposed sign somewhat corresponds to the tenant space at the first floor. Sign Types: The Commission may allow window signs, awning signs, projecting signs, and flush mounted signs for most commercial buildings. Freestanding signs are allowed for office and retail uses in historic residential buildings. City codes prohibit the Commission from approving the following sign types: (1) rotating, (2) off-premise, (3) roof signs, (4) portable, or (5) signs which flash or blink at intervals. City code also prohibits handbills, posters, or placards on a structure except inside a window or on a bulletin board. The proposed sign is flush-mounted. Sign Size: Large commercial buildings (over 3 stories): Cumulative signage may not exceed 40 square feet per façade and must comply with a signage plan for the building. The proposed sign’s area is approximately 72 ft2. Existing non-compliant signage is 259 ft2 in area. Sign Design, Coloring and Materials: Use simple shapes, such as rectangular or oval signs. The Commission recommends painted wood or metal signs with matte finishes for all signs; plastic, reflective materials, and unfinished surfaces are not allowed. Limit the colors used in a sign to no more than three. For sites with multiple signs, all signs should have corresponding or matching designs, coloring …

One of the two entry doors has been filled in, and windows have been replaced, though the East Austin survey states that the alterations took place during the historic period. The house at 1905 Tillotson Avenue was built in 1918. Its earliest long-term residents were Lee and Maggie Green. Lee Green worked as a guard and porter at the Gulf Refining Company before becoming a City Parks Department employee. After his death, Maggie Green worked as a laundress before selling the property to Johnny and Alma Gooden in 1946.1 Johnny Gooden worked for the S & P Lines during his residence in the home. The 2016 East Austin survey lists the property as contributing to potential local and National Register historic districts. 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 does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is constructed in the Craftsman style. 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.

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 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 fair example of Craftsman architecture and conveys architectural significance. 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.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 5, 2022 HR-2022-084104 SEBRON G. SNEED HOUSE 6301 BLUFF SPRINGS ROAD 3.0 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct an apartment complex around the Judge Sebron G. Sneed House ruins erected circa 1857-1860. 1) Construct a three-building apartment complex around the Sebron Sneed House ruins, providing a 25’ buffer zone between the ruins and the pool and other new construction. Proposed buildings are each three stories in height and display Mission Revival stylistic cues; they are clad in stucco and capped with hipped, tiled roofs. Columned arches accent the main entrance to each building. 2) Construct a fence around the ruins. Note: The applicant has provided 2015 correspondence, per Committee feedback, showing that former Preservation Officer Steve Sadowsky requested a mortar analysis and preliminary stabilization plan. The applicant specified that tuck-pointing and consolidation would be implemented following an observation report and recommendation from a masonry restoration contractor and the erection of a double steel fence around the ruins (see backup). RESEARCH & ARCHITECTURE The home on this site was zoned historic in 1979, with the surrounding area rezoned historic in 1980. The house was destroyed by fire in 1989, and the ruins remain. Travis County foreclosed on the home for taxes owed in 2002 and retained the property until a private owner purchased the site from the county in 2006. Invest SmartHomes Inc owned it from 2006-2009, then The Foresight Foundation from 2009-2011. Since 2011, the property has toggled ownership between the same companies: IndoPak Investments, Inc and The Circle at The Nelms. In 1854, Judge Sebron G. Sneed moved his entire family from Fayetteville, Arkansas, to his newly acquired 470-acre farm south of the present city of Austin. Construction of a permanent family residence was begun shortly after that in 1857 and continued for five years. War stopped the work, and the house, never entirely completed, lacked its intended porches and interior finishes.1 The stone for the walls was quarried on the property and finished by hand. Lumber for the floors, roof, and finish material was acquired from the Lost Pine Forest at Bastrop, Texas, 30 miles east of the residence site. A Historic American Building Survey (HABS TX - 399) dated 2/3/1937 described the house as follows: “ This native limestone residence is located one mile off the Austin-San Antonio Highway on the Austin-Lockhart Highway, near Austin, Travis County. …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS OCTOBER 5, 2022 PR-2022-123716 BUILDING OR DISTRICT NAME 608 E. 3RD ST. 31.0 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolition of a circa 1880 single-family residential structure. 608 E. 3rd Street is a National folk style, hall-and-parlor family house. Hall-and-Parlor family houses are a British form that is traditionally associated with heavy timber or hewn log construction but were adapted to masonry and other types of construction as the style moved into timber-scarce areas. After the expansion of the railroad, the form was executed with light-framed walls and remained the dominant form of folk housing over much of the rural Southeast well into the 20th century. Hall-and-Parlor houses are typically one or one-and-one half stories in height and have side-gabled roofs; porches are either inset and covered by the main roof or are shed-roofed extensions. Shed-roofed rear extensions are common. The design was popular as many people could not afford a large house; however, putting up a wall in the only room created a smaller area in the rear of the house called a parlor. This was a private room and usually contained a bed. The East 3rd Street dwelling is a well-preserved example of late nineteenth-century National folk housing of the hall-and- parlor family with rear shed addition. It is a single-story dwelling with a full front porch with an “x” cross-stick railing design and a metal roof that was likely rehabilitation of previous designs. It has a side-gabled roof and wood exterior sheathing with a balanced, symmetrical front façade composed of a single-entry wooden door flanked by 4:4 windows. RESEARCH The property was previously approved for relocation across the street only in 2019. Such a relocation would have helped retain the structure’s original neighborhood context. There do not appear to be any specific historical figures associated with the structure, but rather this dwelling is a rare surviving in situ example of a middle-lower income historic housing from the nineteenth century in Austin. It provides insight into the changing patterns of Austin’s history as an example of the living location and conditions of lower to middle-income Austinites. PROPERTY EVALUATION The Waller Creek Survey lists the property as eligible for NRHP listing. 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).

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 5, 2022 HR-2022-122453 HEIERMAN BUILDING 115 E. 5TH ST. 6.0-1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Alterations, demolition, and new construction of an addition to the existing 3-story commercial structure. 1) Demolish existing storefront assemblies; create a new custom storefront with metal framing and sill with new windows 2) Remove front façade side lites and salvage entry door; create a new recessed entry with the salvaged door. 3) Remove egress door and demolish brick infill on front façade 4) Windows are to be removed and replaced; existing openings are to remain 5) New rooftop steel frame construction with curtain wall glazing setback 20’ from the front facade. 6) Partial demolition of rear courtyard walls, all windows, roof enclosure, and structure. 7) Construct and install new curtain wall windows with divided lights, exterior balcony, blackened metal panel cladding, and enclosed area on level 1 in the rear courtyard. ARCHITECTURE The Heierman Building was zoned Historic in 1977. It was contracted for construction circa February 1887 by Tom Smith, Sr., with materials from M. Paggi and Joseph Nalle as the builder. It is a 3-story brick building believed to have been built initially as a commercial enterprise. Three walls were made of brick and one (west wall) of stone. It opened as the Provident Hotel circa 1890 and continued to operate as a hotel until 1923 (under various names). The family that ran it the longest was the Heiermans during its first 87 years hence the landmark name. Evidence suggests that the Hotel Provident had ten guest rooms on both the second and third floors. Rooms were single or suites and supplied with gas and electricity; closets and free bathrooms were provided on each floor. The rooms likely surrounded a central hall, and at least two rooms on each floor had a fireplace with a coal grate. Research suggests the upper floor may have been converted to support the weight of a machine shop in the 1920s, and lower first-floor walls were cut through to accommodate an automobile shop and showroom. A restoration was completed in 1974. The original façade was a symmetrical 6-bay Victorian storefront in front of a masonry structure. The original roof was metal with raised seams. 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 …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS OCTOBER 5, 2022 PR-2022-123716 ROBERTSON-STUART MAIR 606 E. 3RD ST. 7.0 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Relocation of a circa 1880 single-family residential structure into a local historic district. 606 E. 3rd street is a circa 1880 dwelling of second empire style influences with a double-pile plan, and rear addition. There is the creation of a faux, centered wing, a common subtype of the second empire style, by the upper dormer and projecting porch below. The porch has a modest decorative spindle frieze with beads. The structure has a wood exterior with a wood- shingled straight mansard roof shape. Second empire is a rare style in the Southern states. Second Empire styling was particularly adapted for townhomes for it provided an upper floor behind the steep roof line, and made the structure appear less massive than most other styles with comparable space. The boxy roof line was considered particularly functional because it permitted a full upper story of usable living area or attic space. The second story and rear addition was added between 1880 and 1935, as indicated by the Sanborn maps. Second Empire was popular for a relatively short time from approximately 1855-1885, so it is likely the second story addition was constructed not long after the 1894 Sanborn map. Research indicates this structure continuously served two families or less but does not indicate a framed separation wall typically found with separate entrances. RESEARCH The property was previously approved for relocation across the street only in 2019. Such a relocation would have helped retain the structure’s original neighborhood context as opposed to a move outside its original neighborhood or demolition. There does not appear to be any specific historical figures associated with the structure, but rather this dwelling is a rare surviving in situ example of middle-lower income historic housing from the nineteenth century in Austin. It provides insight into the changing patterns of Austin’s history as an example of the housing style, type, location, and conditions of middle- lower income Austinites. 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 the Robertson-Stuart Mair locally designated historic district that has adopted the Historic Design Standards. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1. General standards Relocation of this structure into the Robertson-Stuart …

ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STANDARDS The Charles Johnson Homestead is a two-story limestone residential structure with a dog-run. 404 Atlanta St is now occupied by the American Legion and used for special events. It was zoned a historic landmark in 1987. Charles Johnson was the original owner and builder and used local limestone to build the structure from a nearby quarry on site. The porch was replaced in 1924, and in 1930, there was an addition to the structure at the Northwest corner. 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 local historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Commercial additions 1. Location The location of the elevator is at the side/rear of the property and is non-invasive. It is compatible with design standards. However, it was not clear from the drawings whether the elevator addition will be structurally independent and not tied into the historic structure per the THC’s recommendations and compatible with the City of Austin design standards. 1.1 Locate additions at the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.3 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the most noninvasive location and methods Summary The project appears to meet the applicable standards.

September 11, 2022 Mr. Peter Dick Architect 2804 Oak Crest Avenue Austin, Texas 78704 Via email to peterdickarchitect@gmail.com Dear Mr. Peter Dick, Re: Recorded Texas Historic Landmark project review, The Johnson Home (American Legion Travis Post 76), 404 Atlanta Street, Austin, Travis County, Texas (RTHL 6448) Thank you for sending the proposed project application for The Johnson Home (American Legion Travis Post 76), which has been designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark (RTHL) since 1966. This letter presents the comments of the Executive Director of the Texas Historical Commission (THC). The Texas Historical Commission Division of Architecture staff, led by Alex Toprac, completed their review of the project proposal along with the preliminary design plans produced by Peter Dick, Architect, dated August 31, 2022, and received on September 1, 2022. Our staff acknowledges the proposed exterior scope of work is largely limited to the construction of a compatible limestone clad masonry elevator addition at the northwest crook of the rear, north building elevation, along with all necessary appurtenances and new utilities, which will require removal of two historic 6-over-6 double hung wood sash windows and selective removal of historic masonry to extend the window openings to be adapted for the associated elevator doors. Although it appears to be the case based on the current preliminary design plans, our review staff expects the elevator addition to be structurally independent and not tied into the historic structure. Furthermore, for any application of mortar directly in contact with the historic building limestone masonry our staff expects the use of a type N mortar mix (composed of 1 part hydrated/hydraulic lime, 1 part Portland concrete, and 5-6 parts matching aggregate). Our staff recommends the installation of expansion/control joint material be used to separate the new elevation addition from the historic building to allow the greatest level of reversibility possible. Additionally, our staff encourages the owner, in coordination with their selected contractor, to salvage and appropriately store the two historic 6-over-6 double hung wood sash windows planned for removal, to allow for potential future reuse. After thorough review of the submitted project proposal, design plans, historic documentation, and photographs, the Texas Historical Commission review staff determined the proposed exterior scope of work appropriately meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Therefore, we hereby waive the remainder of the RTHL review period, and work may proceed at this time. If any substantial revisions …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 5, 2022 HR-2022-137075 MUELLER CONTROL TOWER 3952 BERKMAN DRIVE 9 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct an elevated observation deck and walkway attached to the base of the tower. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construction of a concrete deck, approximately 20' above natural grade, around the non-architecturally treated concrete tower base of the Mueller Control Tower. ARCHITECTURE The 2018 historic zoning report describes the building as follows: Local architects Fehr and Granger were chosen to design the new airport facilities, which won a runner-up award from Progressive Architect in 1959. The new facilities embodied the aesthetics of mid-century Modern style in its long, low profile and horizontal configuration, with ample glass at the entries and a series of continuous extruded lozenge-shaped motifs along the cornice of the entry promenade. Rising from the terminal building was the airport control tower, which was designed to have a dramatic and modern presence, pleasing to the eye whether in the air or on the ground. The tower has a concrete frame, with aluminum and glass panels on the exterior. The original structure had alternating light blue and dark blue porcelain panels set in vertical bands; much of this was covered by glass in a renovation but restored to its original materials and configuration today. The control tower is 18 feet by 18 feet at its base, and 9 stories tall, rising 83 feet, 10 inches to the top of the roof. It begins to flare at the 3rd floor, eventually to a space that is 30 feet, 7 inches square at the control room on the 9th floor of the structure.1 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 at historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project does not remove significant intact historic material from the building’s exterior. The portion of the building that is impacted by the observation deck was historically inside the terminal building. The remainder of the building has been rehabilitated per a previous Certificate of Appropriateness. Institutional buildings 1. General standards 1.1 Ensure that the building’s historic character is preserved through careful repair and maintenance of historic materials. The proposed project does not impact the character-defining historic materials at the building’s exterior. 1.2 …
