It will have an exterior cladding of brick and stained wood siding. Windows will be a mixture of casement, sliding, and fixed single pane glass windows. The primary façade is composed of two fixed single-pane windows and a centrally placed entry door with sidelight. There is a front deck of approximately 112 square feet and a rear back patio. The modern aesthetic takes cues from the Minimal Traditional style in its lack of ornamentation, proportions, and material choice. 1717 W. 30th is a Minimal Traditional style single-family residence built circa 1941. It is on pier and beam foundation and approximately 1625 square feet of wood frame construction with asbestos shingle siding, a hipped roof, and wood 1:1 single-pane windows. It has a central small covered front porch with simple boxed pilasters supporting a hipped roof extension over a single paneled door entrance. There is a raised wooden deck with steps attached to the back of the residence. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH 1717 W. 30th was built circa 1941 by Ken Sanders. It was then rented by James W. and Ora Robinson in 1944. The property was then purchased by M. C. and Elizabeth S. Robinson around 1947. Still, it was vacant by 1949 until it was purchased by E. Morris and Grace E. Alford, owners of Morris Alford Insurance Agency. Mr Morris served as a staff officer at Lackland Air Force Base and President of the Austin Appraisal Association. Donald O. and Dorothy Reinhackel, who owned Harold G. Reinhackel & Son, insurance company, purchased the home in approximately 1955 and welcomed a son while living at here. The Reinhackels lived in the home until Robert G. Brown rented the house in 1959.

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Replace all existing steel casement windows with fiberglass clad wood windows, no divided lite. Current window locations and sizes remain the same.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS FEBRUARY 28, 2022 HR-2022-016431; PR 2022-002618 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK 1803 KENWOOD AVE C.10. 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a circa 1937 single-story residence and replace it with a new construction single-family residence. 1) Total demolition of existing contributing single-family residence built-in 1937. 2) Construction of new single-family residence with in-ground pool in rear, garage, and carport. The proposed primary building is a two-story minimalist style. It features a compound roofline, fixed-pane, and casement full-light fenestration in irregular pattern; dark grey brick on the first story and light-colored exterior stucco cladding on the slightly overhanging second story. The rear second-story elevation has a small rear balcony with a horizontal metal railing overlooking the pool. Designs indicate a side entry garage and direct neighboring carport located in front of the residence. A horizontal wood fence is situated directly in front of the carport, which shields the carport and garage from direct view from the street. The roofline was changed to a front-gabled form after meeting with the Architecture Review Committee on March 18, 2022. The windows were changed to a regular fenestration pattern on the front façade, a small covered front porch and additional brick were also added to the primary facade, and the wood fence and garage were removed. The carport was turned to face the street directly. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Wood frame, single-story, residential construction on pier and beam foundation. The structure is of the Minimal Traditional style with a side gable with a front-facing cross gable design. It is typical of Minimal Traditional design with horizontal wood siding, two sets of symmetrical multi-pane, 6:6 wood windows flanked by slim, simple shutters. There is a small, round gable vent in the front-facing gable façade. The single door entry has a concrete landing and is covered with a wooden awning supported by decorative wooden brackets. The awning is a continuation of the asphalt roof. There is a thin, slightly turned metal balustrade and railing on the front concrete steps and landing. 1803 Kenwood Avenue was likely built by the prominent dentist and civic activist Dr. R.L. Struhall in 1937. Dr. Struhall and his wife Lillian Parma had moved to 1805 Kenwood by 1942. According to City Directories, in 1941, 1803, Kenwood was owned by Raymond W., Jr. and his wife, Marjorie M. Ramsey. Raymond was employed at the R & R Service Station, …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MARCH 28, 2022 PR 2022-023217; GF 2022-028967 1202 E. 6TH STREET D.2 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolish a circa 1940 single-family residential structure. 1202 E. 6Th Street is a one-story stucco bungalow with a front gable roof and Craftsman reminiscent style. It has a full-width porch, and four tapered, square columns support the low pitched roof. The roof has an unenclosed overhang. It has a centrally placed door surrounded by two window assemblies each composed of two 1:1 windows. All windows appear to be 1:1 vinyl replacement windows with the lower sash covered by metal protection bars. According to City Directory records, this is likely a rear unit, often referred to as a back house. Back houses are single‐family residences located behind a main house, typically at the rear of the lot. While most back houses open onto the alley and allow for parking along the alleyway, some houses only provide access from the main street, forcing the occupant to pass by the main house in order to reach the back house. Backhouses served multiple purposes, including lodging for servants or as rental property to bring in extra income. There is an additional entrance door on the East elevation with alley access. The addition of a stucco veneer, and a fenced front lawn that some may consider to simulate the feel of the traditional Hispanic courtyard house plan could be interpreted as an example of how the Mexican American aesthetic was applied to the Craftsman Bungalow in East Austin, and provides a historical narrative of the neighborhood. RESEARCH The primary house at 1202 E. 6Th Street was built circa 19041. Its first occupant was Samual W. Scott, a laborer who lived in the home until 1912. Then Edwin C. and Ethel Overstreet rented the home for approximately five years from 1920-to 1925. Edwin and Ethel were listed as plasterers in the City Directory. George H. and Barbara E. Theilen, proprietors of East Austin Bakery, lived in the house in 1927. Their bakery was one of many to operate out of the historic Clements Market/The Sport Bar building next door at 1200 E. 6th Street2. After this time, the house was a popular home for renters in the service industry: such as tailor Romulo and his wife Blasa Santa Ana, watchmaker Jose and Josephine Siliceo; barber Jesus and Marie Castillo, Maria Gomez, a maid, …
