HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS FEBRUARY 28TH, 2022 PR-2022-005907; GF-2022-016715 6801 BURNET RD. D.5 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a commercial (café) building built in the year 1968. This commercial building was built circa 1968 and is a single-story, wood-frame construction with red-painted brick masonry veneer with a mansard, asphalt roof. The patio area was later enclosed and retains an exterior tan stucco treatment with 8 large picture windows set at regular intervals across the Burnet Street facing façade. The building has been vacant since approx. 2018 and has graffiti on the façade and sides. The Frisco sign should be noted as part of the Burnet landscape since 1976. Location of the Frisco restaurant from 2008-2018. The Frisco’s closing in 2018 marked the end of an 86-year old legacy business initially opened by Harry Akin in 1932 at the corner of S. Congress and Riverside. Harry Akin was the first Texan and the first Southwesterner to hold the position of President of the National Restaurant Association. (1) Akin is highly respected and remembered for his civil rights advocacy practiced through his restaurant chain. Aiken’s businesses were among the first in Texas to desegregate; serving and hiring black people. He was also known for equal pay to minorities and women. His advocacy earned him a spot as a civil rights adviser to President Lyndon B. Johnson who was known to sneak in the back of the Night Hawk restaurant on S. Congress for a meal in the private dining room. Aiken was elected mayor in 1967 and assisted in the passage of laws prohibiting segregation in public places. (2) During this time the two biggest employers in the City of Austin were the University of Texas and the State of Texas, but The Night Hawk restaurant chain was also known as a top place to work. The businesses provided a higher standard of training, higher wages, and benefits like retirement options. Hoover Alexander, the founder of Austin legacy business Hoover’s Cooking, started as a busboy at the Night Hawk and credits the Night Hawk as where he “discovered his passion for food and where he learned the restaurant business from the ground up.” (3) In 1994, a partnership of former Frisco Shop long-term manager Lawrence Baker and the Aiken’s nephew, R. Harry Akin, purchased the Frisco Shop. The business changed hands again in 2008, when the Frisco moved …
