C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Potential comparable property There is a duplex on the same street at 1506 Hardouin. It has both doors together on left side. 1404 may have been the same way. Note the first floor central window does not align with window above. I am wondering if when the 1404 window was removed for the entry update, if it may not have aligned and have been shifted as well. 1404 front windows are not centered on the house - possibly because of left entrance location. This 1506 Hardouin duplex also is simple in its detail. No shutters or colonial revival features that I think were added to 1404. C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Area of Existing Alterations to South Elevation Alterations transition façade from duplex with simple detail and two front entrances to a house with more traditional detail and central formalized entrance. Second entry was on the left side of the elevation behind the tall plant. Circle drive, brick sidewalk and front yard fence are not original C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Fanlight over front door and front door do not appear to be original. Top of fanlight runs into crown molding. Fanlight over window may have been added. Window sills in front rooms of the house are different heights – originally they were probably the same heights. C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Clean line of concrete east (right) of entry Uneven line of patched / parged concrete west (left) of entry where second entry removed C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Front porch appears to have been added at a later date.

C.5 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS JULY 27, 2020 HR-2020-091383 3313 BRYKER DRIVE/1705 W. 34TH STREET OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a contributing ca. 1941-42 duplex and construct a new building. ARCHITECTURE The existing duplex is composed of two parts: 3313 Bryker Drive and 1705 W. 34th Street. The W. 34th Street building was constructed first; it is a side-gabled frame dwelling with gabled entryway, shallow eaves, and 6:6 wood windows. The Bryker Drive addition has a hipped roof, a partial- width covered porch, a gabled addition, and 6:6 and 1:1 wood windows. Both halves of the single- story duplex have horizontal wood siding and composition shingle roofs. A series of additions dating from the 1940s and ’50s abuts the duplex’s rear elevation. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing duplex. 2) Construct a new two-story residence. The proposed new building faces Bryker Drive. It is clad in vertical wood siding and capped by a compound roof with composition shingles and exposed rafter tails. Its fenestration pattern and window sizes are irregular, with undivided clad wood casement windows and sliding glass doors. Its main elevation contains a covered front porch and horizontal-paneled garage door. The north elevation at W. 34th Street features a partial- width screened porch and stucco-clad chimney, as well as a pool. The building’s front wall is set back 20 feet from Bryker Drive and approximately 15 feet from the W. 34th Street utility easement, with the pool’s closest corner just over 11 feet from the W. 34th easement. RESEARCH The duplex at 3313 Bryker Drive and 1705 W. 34th Street was built in two phases in 1941 and 1942. During the historic period, both addresses were primarily owned by Alice T. D. Branyon, a clerical supervisor with the Texas Employment Commission. She was twice widowed; after the death of her first husband in 1941, she lived in the 3313 Bryker half of the duplex until 1947, when she moved into the 1705 W. 34th Street half. Upon her marriage to Roy J. Branyon, the couple moved out. After Roy Branyon’s 1958 death, Alice Branyon moved back into 1705 W. 34th Street. Branyon’s daughter and son-in-law, Jeanne and Lee R. Maulding, occupied the Bryker Drive half of the duplex from 1947 to at least 1959. Lee Maulding was a National Guardsman and WWII veteran working at Camp Mabry. In …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed sign is a freestanding sign located in front of the business, which is located in a historic house. The aluminum cabinet is roughly 20” high and 26” wide, with white neon text and dark gray vinyl graphics. The coloring is muted, with a very light green face and a darker green on the side of the cabinet. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Standards for signs in National Register districts include: 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. A single sign is proposed. The project meets this standard. 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. The proposed project includes one freestanding sign located in front of a historic residential building. The project meets this standard. Sign size. The maximum size for signs depends on the sign type. No maximum size is specified for freestanding signs. The proposed sign is roughly 20” high and 26” wide, with an approximate area of 4 square feet. The project meets this standard. 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. Signs should match or complement the existing color scheme of the building to the maximum extent feasible. The proposed sign has a moderately simple shape and is made of aluminum painted green. The project somewhat meets this standard. Lettering. No more than two typefaces are allowed. Avoid lettering which appears too contemporary in the sign. The proposed sign includes one …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION JULY 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0214 2502 PARK VIEW DRIVE D.1 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1954 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular -plan, shallow front-gabled mid-century Modern-styled wood frame house with rectangular asbestos panels set into a metal framing system on the front and back, and wood siding on secondary elevations. The house has fixed-sash and horizontal- sliding fenestration with a row of clerestory windows bridging the space between the asbestos panel section and the slightly-pitched roof, which is notable for its deep eaves. There is a pop-up, shed roofed section in the middle of the roof, that opens onto a side elevation. The house has a shed-roofed double carport with exposed beams and columns; the carport figures prominently into the impression of the house from the street and has ornamental brick walls, further identifying the house as an example of mid-century Modern design. RESEARCH The house is located in the “Air Conditioned Village” of northwest Austin, and would be contributing to a potential historic district encompassing the remaining homes of the 22 originally built as demonstration houses to study and promote the feasibility of central air conditioning in moderately-sized and moderately-priced homes. Austin’s Air Conditioned Village was one of and the largest of several demonstration projects throughout the country in the early 1950s, at a time when central air conditioning was more common in commercial buildings and high-end residences, than in more modest houses, mostly due to the cost of installation. The National Association of Home Builders sponsored the construction of Austin’s Air Conditioned Village in 1953 as a new subdivision just west of Burnet Road in the northwestern part of the city. The next year, 22 homes were built to appeal to middle- class taste and budgets, in varying styles, but all with central air conditioning furnished by several manufacturers, including Chrysler, which provided the air conditioning for this house at 2502 Park View Drive. This house was known as the Chrysler “Air-Temp” House, and was designed by local architect Fred Day, who had been associated with several of the leading architectural firms in the city, including Fehr and Granger, noted for their mid-century Modern designs. The house was built by Wayne A. Burns, the developer of the Edgewood Subdivision, which encompassed the Air Conditioned Village. The Air Conditioned Village was a novel concept, and was part economic feasibility study and part social …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION JULY 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0231 2609 SAN PEDRO STREET D.2 - 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1935 house, originally constructed as a duplex. Two-story frame hipped-roof duplex with horizontal wood siding, 6:6 wood windows, composition shingles, and a second-floor balcony. In front of the main building, twin single-car frame garages flank the lot. The building at 2609 San Pedro Street was originally a duplex, built in 1935 as a rental property for medical journalist Josephine Draper Daniel. Daniel resided down the block at another rental property on Salado Street until she moved to San Pedro after 1944. After the 1914 death of her husband, physician F. E. Daniel, Josephine Daniel took over his position as editor of the Texas Medical Journal for the next thirty years. F. E. Daniel, a former Confederate army surgeon and Texas Medical College professor, founded the journal in 1885. It later became the most influential medical publication of its time in Texas. Prior to her tenure as editor, Josephine Daniel contributed as founder of the Texas Medical Journal’s “Women’s Department” section since 1912, appealing to a wider demographic than the predominantly male medical field. As editor, Daniel introduced her audience to early tenets of feminism in healthcare and openly contradicted the eugenicist positions championed by her late husband. In a fall 2001 article for The Historian, entitled “The Woman's Department: Maternalism and Feminism in the Texas Medical Journal,” historian Courtney Shah describes Daniel’s evolution as a journalist: Josephine Daniel, although not openly recommending a radical feminist political platform, quietly introduced feminist ideas to her maternalist audience as well as many male physicians. The Women’s Department walked a narrow path between deference to medical and societal experts, and a demand to liberate women from the very institutions the experts represented: the sexual hierarchy of the family, the medical profession, and the state […] [As editor] she [promoted] her own two-pronged campaign of reform: maternalist issues such as reducing infant mortality and pure food laws, and the more radical feminist edge of birth control and women’s emancipation. (Shah 2001, 96-97) Daniel wrote frankly about the importance of reproductive education, stating that "The health and happiness of every girl demands that she receive when approaching adolescence an intelligent presentation of the vital life process” (95). In 1929, Daniel sold the journal and devoted her time to women’s health and literacy …

"The department you are establishing... along this line, giving women good, wholesome knowledge without the taint of quackery is a most worthy undertaking and deserves hearty support,"1 he wrote. The Texas Medical Journal, the most popular and long-standing independent medical journal in the state, was the creation of Dr. Ferdinand Eugene Daniel. His wife, Josephine Draper Daniel, founded the Woman's Department as an insert within the pages of the TMJ. Like so many journalists and activists in the Progressive Era, Josephine used maternalism as a justification to expand women's roles in the public sphere, as well as to justify her own ambitions. But while she usually stressed conservative reforms that did not challenge the dominant model of family life or women's place within it, Josephine Daniel simultaneously presented two curious lines of dissent. First, she challenged the TM/s (and thus her husband's) pro-eugenics stance; and second, she introduced a veneer of radical feminism into the publication, expressed mainly in a more open attitude toward women's sexuality. As Americans coped with the harsh realities of industrialization, urbanization, and immigration in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, a reform-minded cadre of well educated, middle-class men and women saw the possibility for change to eradicate the …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION JULY 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0233 5512 SHOALWOOD AVE. D.3 - 1 PROPOSAL Relocate a ca. 1939 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story stone veneer residence with cross-gabled, composition shingle roof featuring shallow Minimal Traditional-style eaves, 6:6 wood windows, and a Tudor Revival-style arched entryway with peaked gable. RESEARCH The house at 5512 Shoalwood Avenue was built in 1939. Its first residents were renowned Texas landscape architect Charles Coatsworth Pinkney and his wife Evelyn. Pinkney, newly arrived in Austin from an apprenticeship under Olmstead Brothers in Boston, began his own firm that year. Pinkney designed the landscapes for Rosewood and Chalmers Courts, the Delwood Duplex and Allandale subdivisions, the French Legation and other high-profile historic sites in Austin including schools, trails, military and medical facilities, and private residences. 1945 City Council meeting minutes also list Pinkney as a City planning engineer consulting on the proposed interstate highway construction. Pinkney’s clients included the Texas Historical Commission, Bergstrom AFB, IBM, the Texas State Hospital, and dozens of Austin’s most prominent families; over a thousand projects have been catalogued at the Austin History Center. Of these, at least ninety date to within Pinkney’s residence at 5512 Shoalwood Avenue. (Around three hundred entries remain undated.) In 1948, the Pinkneys sold the house to Alice Stevens, a former schoolteacher employed as a bookkeeper at the State Liquor Control Board. Pinkney lived in the home until 1961, according to Statesman classified ads. STAFF COMMENTS 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 historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2- 352). The property may demonstrate significance according to City Code: a) Architecture. The building is constructed with Tudor Revival and Minimal Traditional stylistic influences. Stone-veneer houses from this period represent a rapidly disappearing regional building type. b) Historical association. The building is associated with landscape architect Charles Coatsworth Pinkney. c) Archaeology. The house was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d) Community value. The house 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 demographic group. e) Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to …

I strongly encourage you to review my two aJachments in advance of my hearing. As you know, my property is not going to be demolished, but instead relocated. And not just relocated, but fully restored by the new owners. The future owner's story is compelling and I applaud their vision for the house. I believe you will feel the same aaer reading their leJer addressed to you. The house, as it sits, is in great need of rehabilitaGon. I've aJached a review from Green Earth Engineering (structural engineer) regarding the current state of the dwelling. It's in very bad shape structurally. The enGre 1100 sq a house is racking to the south, the foundaGon is haphazardly cobbled together from unpermiJed and /or non-compliant foundaGon work, and the roof structural framing is completely inadequate by today's standards. When you walk into the house, the floor is rolling +/- 4 " and the walls are out of plumb by over 2" in some places with only an 8" ceiling. To put it bluntly, it's a hot mess. I truly believe that Dawson and Leanne Clark are the best of all possible candidates for this property. Not only do they plan to fully restore and live in the structure, but they also plan to create a stone coJage garden around the property. I think Mr. Pinkney will be proud to see the end result of all their love and hard work. -- Respecmully, Mark Canada CAUTION: This email was received at the City of AusGn, from an EXTERNAL source.

To Whom It May Concern: I have been asked to provide information regarding the proposed relocation of the house currently located at 5512 Shoalwood in Austin. My wife and I own HighPointe Estate Wedding Venue, which is located between Georgetown and Liberty Hill, just 40 minutes north of central Austin. It is our hope that you will approve the relocation of the Shoalwood cottage, as we intend to use the home as our personal residence at our venue property. We purchased 42 acres of land on the North San Gabriel River in early 2018 and have developed what we consider to be Austin’s Newest Premier Wedding and Event Venue. We have built a 15,000 square foot event center on the property and began hosting events in January 2020. The tagline for our business is “Thoughtfully Designed – Artfully Created.” We approach every aspect of the development of our business thoughtfully and artfully. From architectural design, to interior design, to landscape design, to event design, a thoughtful and artful approach is key to our efforts. We commit the same to our beloved Shoalwood Cottage. I’m including photos of our newly completed Great Hall facility here. My commitment to historic properties stems from my first career after college in the mid-1980s, when I served as a Main Street Program Director in Mineral Wells, Texas. As you may know, the Main Street Program is a national effort to honor historic preservation of America’s downtowns, while balancing the adaptive reuse of historic properties for a current and relevant modern use. We have completely embraced this philosophy with our efforts to relocate properties that are in danger of demolition to a valuable new life on our venue property. You see, this attempt to relocate a home from Austin to our property is not our first. In May 2018, we relocated a home from Willow Street in East Austin to our property to be used as our Office/Sales Center and a small secondary venue space. We are very proud of the adaptive reuse that’s been accomplished through the relocation and restoration of our East Austin house, which we call The Moonlight Bungalow, since it was relocated from a neighborhood lit by one of Austin’s historic Moonlight Towers. Here is a photo of the home at its prior location in East Austin, shabby, tired and in need of new life. And this is a recent photo of …
H ISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION JU LY 27, 2020 D E MOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS H DP-2020-0258 2501 SOL WILSON AVENUE D.4 - 1 PR OPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1921 house. A R CHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, front-gabled frame bungalow with a partial-width, front-gabled, independent porch on plain wood posts; side gablet halfway down the north elevation of the house; original fenestration appears to be 4:4 and in a single and double configuration, but many windows have been replaced with modern units. R E SEARCH The house appears to have been built around 1921 for Sol I. and Mabel Wilson, who lived here until the late 1940s, when they moved to Los Angeles, California. Sol I. Wilson w as born in Cedar Creek, Bastrop County, Texas in 1889 and worked at various automobile dealerships in downtown Austin during the course of his career. He married Mabel Love in Travis County in 1910, and lived on the eastern outskirts of Austin. This house, believed to have been built around 1921, and still featuring a 4:4 window in front that was more common at that time, was originally listed as being on an Austin rural route, then at 1167 Bedford Avenue (the house actually faces Bedford Avenue today), at 1167 Sol Wilson Avenue, and finally, with its current address of 2501 Sol Wilson Avenue. City directories show that Sol I. Wilson was employed as a chauffeur and as a porter at auto dealerships in Austin once he and Mabel gave up farming for paid occupations. Interestingly, the census reports show the couple’s children as attending Anderson High School and Kealing Junior High School; it was unusual to have the name of the school noted in the census report, but one might speculate that the education of their children was important enough to Sol and Mabel Wilson to mention that to the census taker, who noted it in the report. However, very little other information is available about the life of Sol I. Wilson. There were no articles mentioning him in the Austin newspapers, no City Council minutes referencing why this street was named for him (which would have been a very unusual occurrence in segregated Austin), and he had no obituary in the Austin newspapers (although Mabel Wilson’s 1964 passing was noted in the paper). It could be that he was the owner of the land across which this street traversed, but it at …

Its significance outweighs any financial considerations of the developer. Mid Tex Mod and Preservation Austinʼs letters strongly opposing this demolition are compelling. This outstanding, remarkably-intact midcentury residence with passive cooling strategies and innovative technological design and construction, which is part of the larger Air Conditioned Village project, is very much a part of Austinʼs history and culture. Austinite Ned Cole convinced organizers to locate this significant experiment appropriately in Austin, with our hot climate. The residence is an excellent early work of local architect, Fred Day, who made significant contributions to Austinʼs development. A National Register Historic District designation is underway for the Austin Air- Conditioned Village, and the best example of this project should be preserved. Please vote for the preservation of 2502 Park View Drive.

The home is a fine example of Mid-Century architecture that makes Allandale so unique. The home also has local, and national, historic relevance as being one of the original homes in Air-Conditioned Village. My grandparents built their home on the same street in 1955. With so many of the homes already torn down and replaced by houses that do not fit the neighborhood, I feel Allandale will continue to lose the charm and appeal it has always had. In …
Gaudette, Angela From: Sent: To: Subject: Kim Barker Monday, July 27, 2020 11:59 AM PAZ Preservation HDP-2020-0258 - Sol Wilson House > *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Hello, I am a neighbor of this house and wish to both support historic landmark designation and register my position against demolition. Based on the research completed by City staff, it is my understanding this is the Sol Wilson House and perhaps the oldest house in the neighborhood. Both a street and subdivision were named after Sol Wilson. Like the Sol Wilson House, my house is at the intersection of Bedford and Sol Wilson Streets in the Sol Wilson subdivision. The City's research notes that not much is known about Mr. Wilson, but that he was a porter and worked at automobile dealers (and was married with many children). I suspect not much more is typically known about Black residents who lived in Austin during the 1920s and 1930s. Which does not mean that he was not important. This neighborhood is being decimated by demolition and over‐scaled new construction, but my support for designation is not just a vote against that. Mine is a vote to recognize the house of Sol Wilson, a Black homeowner and the subdivision's namesake. Photographs of the house are not a sufficient trade off for properly recognizing Mr. Wilson with landmark designation and prevention of demolition.

I live on Sol Wilson Ave.‐‐my address is 1180 1/2, but I'm actually just a few houses down from 2501. I've always wondered who the street was named after, but Google searches haven't yielded anything. I'm intrigued to learn that the street's namesake lived in the blue house that's currently up for possible demolition. I would really like to learn more about the Wilsons to determine whether their house deserves historic status. Please give City staff more time to research this property and its original owners by postponing this hearing to August 24. Thank you for your consideration.

M E M O R A N D U M TO: Historic Landmark Commission FROM: Historic Preservation Office staff DATE: July 24, 2020 Comparison of base zoning and current land use SUBJECT: At the June 22, 2020, meeting of the Historic Landmark Commission, Commissioner Heimsath requested that staff look analytically at historic landmarks in the central core of Austin to determine disconnects between their land use and zoning. Specifically, the commissioner expressed concern that, due to extreme financial pressure, properties not thought to be at risk have been threatened by untenable proposals that do not prioritize their preservation. This analysis would identify the level of risk such that the Commission can prioritize potential solutions. Commissioner Valenzuela also requested analysis for the potential historic landmarks and districts recommended in the 2016 East Austin Historic Survey. As an initial step in fulfilling this request, the attached maps and spreadsheet compile base zoning data from the City of Austin with current use data from the Travis Central Appraisal District for properties with Historic Landmark overlay zoning in central Austin. Staff next intends to create a map that interpolates between the two data sets and highlights those properties with the most significant differences between what is allowed under their base zoning and their current use. Given the large amount of data to analyze, staff seeks feedback on how to narrow this effort by either: 1. Starting solely with certain types of base zoning, such as Central Business District and Downtown Mixed Use, where there is likely to be the biggest disconnect between what could be built under the base zoning and the size and use of existing historic landmarks; or 2. Eliminating residential properties where the zoning and use are compatible, such as Single Family zoning with Family Dwelling use, and performing analysis on the remainder of the properties. Following the successful development of methodology for this comparison for historic landmarks, staff will expand the analysis to address properties recommended for designation in the East Austin survey.
