HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 PR-2022-002404 & GF-2022-016498; 1315 & 1317 NEWNING AVE 13 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolish two existing contributing buildings located in the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register District, which are 1315 Newning Ave. (ca. 1940) and 1317 Newning Ave (ca. 1915) on one parcel. Demolish all impervious cover and a third structure to the rear, between 1315 & 1317 Newning Avenue. 1317 Newning Ave. is a modest, single-story Greek Revival house with a rectangular plan on a pier and beam foundation, with a low-pitched, hipped metal roof. The residence has a full-width entry porch supported by pilasters and a single masonry chimney. A single-entry door and transom are flanked by two rectangular windows on the symmetrical façade, while three pairs of similar rectangular windows transverse the south elevation. 1315 Newning Ave. is a simple, single-story wood frame house of Minimal Traditional Style, circa 1940 with horizontal wood siding and a front-gabled asphalt roof. It has a small, lower gable roof extension on simple posts with concrete steps, forming a front porch over an off-center single-door entry. The façade contains two sets of rectangular windows on either side of the entrance, which appears to be 1:1 with aluminum replacement screens. RESEARCH 1315 Newning was constructed in the early 1940s. Research indicated water tap permits in 1951. It served as a rental property for most of its lifespan. In 1955, Richard D. and Hilda R. Rylander rented 1315 Newning Avenue. Richard was an accountant for the State Insurance Board. In 1957, Jack and Alma Clark became the new tenants. Jack was listed as serving with the United States Air Force. According to City directories, the house at 1315 Newning was vacant in 1959. 1317 Newning was built circa 1915. The first known mention by a city directory of this address was in 1916, when Guy and Beulah Cannon purchased the property. Guy was a local car salesman. After 1920, the property was then purchased by Jerome B. Wheatley, a sergeant for the Texas Rangers. Jerome Wheatley was hand-picked by Governor Pat Neff (term 1921-1925) to serve in the Texas Rangers1. Sergeant Wheatley was also a former Potter County Sheriff (1894-98), Moore County Sheriff, and Chief of Police for Amarillo2. According to City Directories, Captain Wheatley lived at the residence from at least 1922-1927, during which he was appointed to the Rangers …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 HR-2022-026102 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK 1205 ALTA VISTA AVENUE 12 – 1 Demolish existing two-story duplex and secondary building and construct a new three-story single-family house. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS 1) Demolish existing house and rear garage apartment. 2) Construct a three-story house. The proposed building is flat-roofed and clad in stucco, board-and-batten, tongue-and- groove siding, and cedar slats. Fenestration includes fixed undivided windows and casement windows with irregular spacing, proportions, and orientation throughout; a front-facing garage; and sliding glass doors. The primary building at 1205 Alta Vista Avenue is a two-story cross-gabled duplex with horizontal siding, 6:6 wood windows, arched six-light accent windows, and composition shingle roof. 1205 Alta Vista Avenue was constructed around 1939 for Mary G. Sanders, along with a garage.1 A rear dwelling unit was constructed later. It appears to have been constructed as a duplex, and mostly housed two families in the main building and one in the rear unit. Renters were largely short-term and included a cattle buyer, a meat inspector, a bookkeepers, students, and oil company 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed new building is set back approximately 25’, in line with historic-age buildings on the street. 2. Orientation The proposed new building’s orientation is consistent with the predominant orientation of contributing buildings on the same block. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is three stories, while nearby contributing buildings are one and two stories; its floor-to-floor and foundation height does not appear consistent with nearby contributing buildings. Its monolithic massing is not compatible with the district. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s proportions are not compatible with those of contributing buildings on the block. 5. Design and style The proposed building is differentiated from historic buildings and its details are consistent with its style, but its overall design is at odds with the historic district in terms of scale, massing, proportions, patterns, and some materials. 1 "Real Estate Transaction 1 -- no Title."

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 HR-2022-070860 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 407 E. MONROE STREET 15 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 garage apartment and construct a new building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish garage apartment. 2) Construct a new building. The proposed building is split-leveled, with two stories plus basement and attic. It is clad in stucco, brick, and fiber cement siding. Its compound gabled roof is clad with matching standing-seam metal. Fenestration is irregular throughout and features a fully glazed multilight front door, front-facing garage door, and fixed undivided windows of varying proportions. ARCHITECTURE Two-story stucco garage apartment with screened wood windows, triangular brackets at overhanging first-floor eaves, and partially glazed entry door and garage doors facing the primary 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 proposed building appears to be constructed at the site of the existing building, next to the primary structure. 2. Orientation The proposed building appears to be oriented toward the street, as is the existing structure. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s massing is somewhat more complex than the existing simple rectangular garage apartment. Its height is similar. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s irregular proportions do not appear compatible with the surrounding historic district. 5. Design and style The proposed building’s design, while consistent, does not appear to relate to the surrounding district. 6. Roofs The steeply pitched open gables do not appear compatible with the existing primary building, though the applicant has removed flat roof elements to enhance compatibility. 7. Exterior walls The proposed building’s exterior wall materials have been changed to represent Committee feedback, rendering the project more compatible. 8. Windows and doors The proposed building’s irregular fenestration and undivided lights do not reflect the character of the district, though fenestration has been altered to enhance compatibility. Summary The project meets some applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register district. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Include divided lights in windows. Implement design changes to reduce building height and increase cohesion with streetscape at roofline and garage.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 HR-2022-067914 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 2107 BRACKENRIDGE STREET 16 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish ca. 1946 house and ca. 1940 accessory building and construct a new duplex. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish existing buildings and construct a new duplex. The proposed duplex has a compound flat and gabled roof clad in standing-seam metal. Its exterior cladding includes stucco, diagonal wood siding, and stone. Fenestration is irregular throughout and includes undivided fixed and casement windows and full height sliding doors. ARCHITECTURE One-story cross-gabled house with horizontal siding, 1:1 windows, and rear two-story garage apartment. RESEARCH The primary building at 2107 Brackenridge Street was built in 1946 in front of an existing garage apartment, built 1940, which was converted to a duplex in 1949. Its residents included a cleaner, two carpenters, a rental property manager, and a tailor. 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 proposed duplex is located approximately 50’ from Brackenridge Street. 2. Orientation The front unit of the proposed duplex is oriented toward the primary streetscape. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed duplex is two stories in height, with complex massing that appears at odds with the relatively simple massing of surrounding buildings. 4. Proportions The proposed duplex’s two-story height and top-heavy massing appear incompatible with nearby contributing buildings. 5. Design and style The proposed duplex’s postmodern style does not appear compatible with surrounding buildings. 6. Roofs The gabled roofline is somewhat compatible, though the complexity of the roofline is not. 7. Exterior walls The proposed cladding materials are not appropriate for the district, with the exception of the stucco, which appears elsewhere in the district. 8. Windows and doors The proposed irregular fenestration is largely incompatible; however, the applicant has amended the design to improve compatibility. 11. Attached garages and carports The proposed carports somewhat serve as a step-up element to mitigate the duplex’s upper-story visual weight. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. 16 – 2 PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The …

The existing building was approved for demolition in 2022. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new building is clad in brick veneer and stucco. It has an asphalt shingle and metal roof, as well as clad-wood and aluminum windows. It is located approximately 24 feet from the street. It is side-gabled, with an attached one-story front-facing garage.

Design and style The proposed building’s design and style are consistent and appear to take some design cues from the surrounding district. 6. Roofs The proposed roof is mostly compatible, though the steep pitch may make the building appear more massive than it is. 7. Exterior walls Proposed cladding appears compatible with the district. 8.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 HR-2022-094167 OLD WEST AUSTIN 2607 MCCALLUM DRIVE 18 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new residence and garage apartment. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed primary building is two stories in height with a compound gable roof. It is clad in brick with stucco accents. A decorative metal hood caps the entryway. Windows throughout are predominantly single and paired 4:1 single-hung. The proposed detached garage apartment is two stories with a gabled roof, set back from the main house. It is clad in stucco with a front-facing garage door and exterior materials to match the main house. 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 Both proposed structures are located on the approximate footprint of the existing house and detached garage. 2. Orientation Both proposed structures are oriented in the same way as the previous house and garage. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed primary building appears appropriate in scale, massing, and height; the proposed garage apartment is set back enough to minimize its two-story height. 4. Proportions The proposed primary building’s proportions are mostly compatible; however, its dramatic roofline may emphasize its verticality. 5. Design and style The proposed buildings’ styles are compatible with the surrounding district and appear consistent throughout. 6. Roofs See 4. 7. Exterior walls The proposed primary and secondary exterior materials are compatible with the surrounding district. 8. Windows and doors The proposed fenestration is appropriate in configuration and placement. True divided lights would enhance compatibility. 10. Chimneys The proposed chimney is clad in brick. Summary The project mostly meets the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The existing building was approved for demolition in 2021. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Reduce height of gable if possible. Provide an orthographic elevation if feasible to show relationship to streetscape. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Comment on and release plans for new construction. LOCATION MAP 18 – 2

In general, the new design focused on maintaining the scale of original homes in the district. The standards state, “The scale and massing of a new building are essential to maintaining a property or historic district’s distinctive character—more so than architectural style or decorative details. However, well-designed.” 2. LOCATION. The structure is located in line with other houses so that it does not visually overpower existing adjacent houses. 3. ORIENTATION. The orientation (front door faces street) is consistent with adjacent contributing structures. 4. SCALE. Massing of house reflects character of nearby contributing houses. 5. STYLE. Scale, proportions and massing are in keeping with nearby houses, while a replica style is avoided. (Standards state that designs in both traditional and modern styles can successfully achieve compatibility and differentiation with historic buildings.) 6. WINDOWS. Windows proportions, size and profile look to nearby contributing structures. 7. PORCHES. A porch is incorporated, and the front door faces the street, to match the pattern in the district. 8. GARAGES. The garage is placed behind the house to minimize the visual prominence. Historic Design Standards 2607 McCallum Use this sheet if new construction/addition

Construct a multi-lot mixed use development. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish the commercial building and partially reconstruct the façade at 1116 W. 6th Street. Potential materials for the reconstruction include white brick or stone, reuse of existing brick, concrete, or treated or charred wood. 2) Demolish the residential building located immediately behind the store. 3) Construct a mixed-use development spanning the block to Blanco Street. The proposed redevelopment includes multi- level structures of varying materials, with flat-roofed upper floors and roof decks stepped back from the first- and second-floor façades. ARCHITECTURE The 2005 West Line National Register Historic District nomination describes 1116 W. 6th Street as follows: One of a number of Mission Revival-style commercial buildings on the north side of W. Sixth Street, this brick two-part commercial block was built in 1927. A three-bay storefront on the ground floor consists of central double doors flanked by expansive plate-glass windows; an additional door at the end of the facade leads to stairs to the upper floor. The second-story facade, punctured by paired and triple double-hung wood windows, terminates in a shaped parapet. A suspended metal awning covers the sidewalk, and a canted clay tile roof below the parapet shades the second-floor windows. To the east side of the building, a recessed porte-cochere is surmounted by a one-room wing. Centered on the stuccoed front elevation of the wing is a cluster of three windows, and wood stairs lead to an adjacent exterior door sheltered by a metal awning.1 1116-B W. 6th Street/1114 W. 6th Street is an L-plan Folk Victorian house. It appears to be side-gabled, with traditional cornice returns, and has a board-and-batten rear addition with a hipped roof of corrugated metal. It is not visible from the primary W. 6th Street frontage. RESEARCH From 1927-1944, the building housed a grocery run by Alexander (Alex) and Annie Junck Fischer, who lived on the upper floor. The Fischers sold the building to Raymond Campi, who also owned the cluster of small commercial buildings on the other corner of the block. Campi operated Capitol Floors until 1955. The building was then occupied by Bill Bunch Flowers, a florist shop run by Gus …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS AUGUST 3, 2022 HR-2022-104374 PARQUE ZARAGOZA 2611 WEBBERVILLE ROAD 22 – 1 PROPOSAL Renovate the park’s bathhouse and pool area. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS window openings. 3) Add steel shade structures to north, east, and west elevations. 4) Add solar chimneys to roof of north wing. RESEARCH 1) Repair exterior masonry with matching brick and mortar. 2) Extend windowsills to ground at park- and pool-side elevations to create doors. Add steel infill panels in existing Parque Zaragoza’s bathhouse was constructed around 1941 by community volunteers and National Youth Association program members with Parks Department support. It abuts the northeast corner of the swimming pool. In addition to its basic function as a restroom, shower, and changing area for bathers, the bathhouse—referred to as a “shelter house and caretaker’s unit” in period documentation—was historically used as both the caretaker’s residence and an all-purpose community center. Its character-defining features include expansive horizontal windows, low-relief brick coping and windowsills, long and low massing, and pointed-arch entrances on the pool-facing (west) elevation. Parque Zaragoza’s swimming pool was built in 1933 as a segregated public facility. Though it was one of the smallest city pools, it remained the only public pool open to Mexican Americans for much of the twentieth century, drawing record crowds to the park each summer. The concrete pool in the northwest quadrant of the park measures approximately 100 feet by 40 feet. A concrete sidewalk punctuated by depth markers and benches and edged by a grassy lawn surrounds the pool. Three-quarters of the site are enclosed by a chain-link fence topped with razor wire, with the northeast corner wrapped by the 1941 bathhouse. 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 National Register properties. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project stabilizes and repairs historic fabric. It removes a minimal amount of historic brickwork. 5. Windows, doors, and screens The proposed project enlarges some historic openings and replaces temporary infill panels with perforated steel panels. The proposed panels are designed to mimic the historic casement windows which are no longer extant. 6. Porches The applicant has amended the plans to redesign the shade structures to be subordinate to the historic building. Institutional …

Proposed new windows are vertically oriented casements and horizontal fixed windows, placed irregularly throughout. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH The house at 1400 Garden St is a single-story L-plan National Folk style with a cross-gabled metal roof and wood siding. The existing windows are not original. Columbus W. Moore built the house located at 1400 Garden Street in the early 1890s. Moore lived in the house for roughly 20 years where he worked as a carpenter and contractor, utilizing his home as his office. Moore served as a City alderman during his time in the home. He was a prolific builder, landing contracts to build at the Travis County fairgrounds, the City’s water settling basin, a Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone exchange building, and the Confederate Women’s Home, among others. He served as president of Austin’s Builder’s Exchange group, hosting contractor conventions and organizing events for local professionals. The house was then occupied by various tradesmen from 1912-1920, including a contractor, miller, and blacksmith. From 1927-35 James and Elvira Sylvester lived in the house. After James Sylvester passed away in the early 1930s, his wife continued to live in the house until 1941.The house was rented briefly in the 40s before being bought by Pedro and Esther Tamayo. The Tamayo family owned the house from 1947-1952, and Sterling and Eula Borders owned it from 1955-1957.

Mack and Gertrude Parker Blocker bought 1601 Cedar Avenue in September of 1914. The lot was across the street from his wife’s father’s property. According to his 1917 draft registration card, Mack Blocker was born in LaGrange, Texas in 1893. He and his wife, the former Gertrude Parker, lived here until their deaths. Mack Blocker worked a variety of jobs, typical of African American men in the first part of the 20th century: laborer, porter, truck driver, and janitor. He died in 1927, and his widow, Gertrude, continued to live in this house for decades to come. Gertrude Blocker apparently never remarried, and supported herself with work as a maid and cook for a private family. Her nephew, Charles Conley, lived with her and worked as a waiter at the Austin Hotel.
