C.4 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 22, 2021 GF-2021-014474 1510 WEST 24TH STREET OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a contributing outbuilding and construct an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish a ca. 1953 carport with attached storage shed. 2) Rebuild existing retaining wall. 3) Construct a new ADU. The proposed ADU is two stories, with an open carport on the ground level and living space above, supported by exposed steel beams. It is clad in board-and-batten siding. The compound hipped, shed, and gabled roof is clad in standing-seam metal, and exposed rafter tails are visible at north, south, and east elevations. A metal guardrail surrounds the covered porch and elevated walkway. The east elevation includes a screened porch. RESEARCH The house at 1510 W. 24th Street was built in 1946 by Major General Arthur Balfour Knickerbocker, Texas State Adjutant, after his resignation as leader of the Texas National Guard. An Odessa native, Knickerbocker helped to organize the state guard there and served as commander until his 1942 appointment by Governor Coke Stevenson. After leaving the Guard in 1946, Knickerbocker and his family left their Camp Mabry living quarters and constructed this home in Pemberton Heights. The carport and attached storage shed were built in 1953 by subsequent owner-occupants Raleigh R. Ross, a physician, and his family. Dr. Ross served as chief of surgery at Brackenridge Hospital before climbing to chief of staff and, for a time, interim superintendent. During the 1950s and beyond, Ross chaired the State Board of Hospitals and Special Schools. Ross also served as president of the Travis County Medical Society and sat on the Board of Trustees for the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Crippled Children, among other hospital boards. In a 1980 American-Statesman article, Ross is credited with helping to modernize Austin’s medical system after World War II. Linda Steck Ross, daughter of reporter and banker Lena Riddle Steck and local printer E. L. Steck, was president of the Junior League and participated in numerous other charity societies. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate new construction projects in National Register historic districts. Applicable standards include: 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved.

01 March 2021 Claman Residence 1517 Murray Lane Austin, Texas Historic Review Application Proposed Work Structure 1. Due to the age and condition of the existing foundations, demolition and replacement of the existing foundation and ground floor slab is required to meet existing structural requirements and codes. The new foundations will match the current footprint of the original house on the North, West and South sides of the structure, with one exception. Currently, the North elevation projects 6” into the 5’ set back and this will be pulled back to align with the required set back. 2. Due to the replacement of the foundations, most if not all of the framing, except for the west wall at the first floor will be replaced to allow for proper replacement of the foundations.

Existing double hung window sashes will be replaced with new sashes to match the existing size and will incorporate insulated glass panels. Removable wood insect screens will be provided at all double hung windows. Original window trim will be reused unless damaged beyond repair. Any replacement materials will match the profile and size of the existing trim. 3. Extensions of the existing porch roof will be added to the north and south. The detailing and trim will match the existing porch structure. 4. The existing “eyebrow” windows will be replaced with new, operable “eyebrow” windows that are sized and located so that natural light is brought into the interior and establishes visual access to the exterior. The width and detailing of the “eyebrow” windows will be similar to the existing windows and are in keeping with the original aesthetic of the house. The original windows will be preserved for future use. 5. The existing asphalt shingle roof needs to be replaced due to its condition and age.
