HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 14, 2022 HR-2022-168526 OLD WEST AUSTIN 2816 GLENVIEW AVENUE 15 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new building is a one-story house with Tudor Revival influences, including arched entryway, exposed rafter tails, and catslide roof. It is clad in brick at the façade and horizontal siding at the sides and rear, as is the existing house. Fenestration includes a paneled front door, 4:1 mulled and single sash and 4-light casement windows of aluminum-clad wood, and a paneled garage door at the rear elevation. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH 2816 Glenview Avenue is a one-story cross-gabled house with masonry and horizontal wood cladding. It has shallow eaves, an asymmetrical plan, and 6:6 screened windows with decorative shutters. The house at 2816 Glenview Avenue appears to have been built by noted Austin firm Page and Southerland around 1937, as building and tap permits list both architects as the property owners. It was first a rental property for the Avery family until it was sold to Greenwood and Nina Wooten in the early ‘40s. Greenwood Wooten was a drugstore owner and pharmacist; he and Nina Belle Wooten’s later dwelling at 1405 Wooldridge Drive has been listed as a City of Austin Landmark.1 The Wootens alternately lived in and rented the house until around 1955, when it was purchased by James and Maxine Burch. 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 new building appears appropriately sited on the lot. 2. Orientation The proposed new building is oriented in the same way as the existing historic-age building. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building’s scale, massing, and height appear appropriate for the district. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s proportions are compatible with the surrounding district. 5. Design and style The proposed building’s Tudor Revival-influenced design does not reflect the dominant Colonial Revival influences in Bryker Woods; however, it is an appropriate stylistic reference for the Old West Austin National Register District as a whole and does reflect the era in which its neighbors were constructed. It is differentiated by its modern fenestration patterns and …

Number of signs. The Commission allows one sign per building, unless the building has multiple tenants; the Commission may allow one sign per façade module, if modules correspond to tenant spaces. The Commission may also allow one sign for each street frontage if the building is at an intersection. Sign types. The Commission may allow window signs, awning signs, projecting signs, and flush mounted signs for most commercial buildings. The proposed signage will replace existing signage. Sign size The proposed signage is 60” X 350”; however, the Commission granted and exception and approved the existing signage project in 2014, which also exceeds the allowable sign size. 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 and materials. The proposed signage is simple in design and meets applicable standards. Lettering. No more than two typefaces are allowed. Avoid lettering which appears too contemporary in the sign. The proposed sign includes one typeface. Lighting. Internally-lit cabinet signs are not allowed for signs on historic buildings or within the historic districts.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 14, 2022 GF-2022-138179 1800 GUADALUPE STREET 28 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH 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 …

ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story pyramidal hipped-roof house clad in horizontal wood siding, with partial-width inset porch supported by boxed columns, a central chimney, and exposed rafter tails at eaves. The house at 2203 E. Cesar Chavez Street, alternately addressed as 2203 E. 1st Street, was constructed around 1912 by carpenter W. Burt Haston. Haston and his family lived in the house until around 1920, when it was rented to a roofer and his wife. It was briefly owned by Amos Franklin, who worked as a teamster, before being sold to the Kuehn family around the mid-1920s. Paul Kuehn worked as a carpenter, while Emily Kuehn was active in the Lutheran church. Their children Albert, Hildegard, and Hertha also lived in the family home; Hertha was a nurse while Hildegard was a dental technician. Hildegard eventually married contractor Alvin Massey and the couple lived on the property with her parents in the 1950s. Son Herbert Kuehn, dean of the Methodist Theological Seminary in Singapore, visited his parents often. The Kuehn family owned and occupied the home until Emily Kuehn’s death in 1969.
