HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0293 2816 SAN PEDRO STREET A.1 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1924 house. ARCHITECTURE 2816 San Pedro is a 1.5-story stucco residence with rectangular Cape Cod plan. It is side-gabled with a composite-shingle roof, three gabled dormers with 1:1 wood windows and lap siding, and a gabled portico supported by Classical columns. At the main elevation’s southernmost bay is a bank of 4:4 and 6:6 mulled windows framed with decorative shutters. The northernmost bay contains a single 12:12 window with similar shutters. The inset door is surrounded by a fanlight and sidelights. A hipped-roof addition to the south features 2:2 windows and a secondary double- door entry. A detached two-story garage apartment is northwest of the main house. RESEARCH The building at 2816 San Pedro Street was constructed for the Wyse family around 1924. William Riley Wyse, an independent oilman with ties to Austin’s power and water company, passed away shortly after its construction. Ellen Borroughs Wyse, his spouse, remained there with her son and daughter-in-law. Ellen Wyse was a prominent writer, editor, and business owner in Austin. Early in her career, Wyse served as the society editor for the Austin Statesman, then expanded her literary horizons to include her life’s passion: advertising. She established Gossip Advertising in 1911 at the age of thirty-eight, beginning with a single-page newspaper insert. By the 1920s, Gossip had grown into a multi-page publication and household name among Austinites, particularly women. The paper’s offices were located first at the Austin National Bank Building and later at the Scarbrough Building, as noted on its state historical marker. After more than thirty years of continuous publication, Wyse’s declining health shuttered Gossip’s pressroom in 1945. In addition to owning and operating a successful business—an extraordinary accomplishment for a woman in the early twentieth century—Wyse used her talent and charisma to reach out to other women writers. She presented to the Texas Presswomen’s Association across the state, sharing strategies for entering the male-dominated advertising field and establishing successful marketing tactics with a targeted and loyal readership. She was a founding member of the Quill Club (later, the Kwill Klub), a women’s organization that blossomed from a small collection of writers to a thriving consortium whose meetings included educators, librarians, professional authors (including Josephine Daniels, editor of the Texas Medical Journal, who also lived on San Pedro), prominent …
A.2 - 1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET 10/26/2020 10/27/2020 HLC DATE: PC DATE: CASE NUMBER: C14H-2020-0087 APPLICANT: Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas Baker LLC HISTORIC NAME: Baker School WATERSHED: Waller Creek Council District: 9 ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 3908 Avenue B ZONING FROM: GR-HD-NCCP-NP to GR-HD-H-NCCD-NP SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change to designate the former Baker School as a historic landmark. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Historical significance and community value. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The former Baker School is contributing to the Hyde Park Local Historic District. ACTION: PHONE: 974-6454 ORDINANCE NUMBER: CITY COUNCIL DATE: ORDINANCE READINGS: 1ST 2ND 3RD CASE MANAGER: Steve Sadowsky NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATION: Hyde Park Neighborhood Association BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION: Architecture: While City Code does not allow a contributing building within a local historic district to be designated as a historic landmark for its architectural significance, the former Baker School is worthy of an architectural description as it reflects the work of three of the most prominent architects in Austin in the early- to mid-20th century. Built in 1911, the building is a raised two-story institutional building with a raised full basement. The building is constructed of Austin Common buff brick with poured concrete accents. The building has bands of five 2:2 windows with transoms in the principal block (these, while believed to be of historic age, are not original); the raised basement level also features bands of five 2:2 windows, but without transoms. The principal entry faces Avenue B, and has a brick portico that once had Doric columns and arched sides; the portico frames the raised and recessed entry, which features a double set of glazed wood doors. The portico has a small gablet at its center, echoing the A.2 - 2 gablet on the top of the building which has the inscription “Baker School.” Additional decorative aspects of the building include concrete bracket-like moldings in the at the top of the pilasters defining the bays, and a prominent cornice. At the north and south ends of the original 1911 building are rectangular-shaped additions matching the height and configuration of the original block. These additions project proud of the main block of the building, and have a pair of 2:2 windows on each floor, all without transoms. The solid appearance of the building hearkens to the Neo-Classical architecture popular for commercial and institutional buildings in the early …

ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan house with a gable roof, wood cladding, 4-over-1 and 3-over-1 wood-sash windows, and a gable-roofed entry porch with battered piers. The house has a habitable basement where the grade slopes down from the street. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The second-floor addition is set back 27’ from the front wall of the historic house. The addition has a front-gabled roof covered in metal to match existing, wood cladding to match existing, and casement and fixed clad-wood windows with a 1-over-1 lite pattern with a true muntin. A roof deck set into the south slope of the existing gable roof is set back 15’-2” from the front wall of the house and features horizontal steel railings. A steel staircase is proposed to replace an existing wood staircase at the rear of the building. A detached steel-framed carport with a steel shade structure is also proposed. The carport will be located next to and flush with the south wall of the house. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The property is contributing to the Smoot/Terrace Park Historic District. The following requirements from the historic district design standards apply to the proposed project: Additions to Contributing Buildings 1. New additions should be compatible with the historic building by reflecting the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building, but differentiated enough so that they are not confused as historic or original to the building. The addition is clad in matching wood siding and has clad-wood windows with similar dimensions and lite configurations as the historic windows. The casement windows and roof deck differentiate the addition from the historic house. The project meets this standard. 3. Design new additions that are subordinate to and do not overpower the historic building. The addition is minimally visible and subordinate to the historic building. It meets this standard. 4. Construct additions that avoid the removal or obstruction of any historic exterior features on the front of the building or the sides within 15 feet of the front. The addition does not entail the removal or obstruction of historic exterior features within 15 feet of the front wall. It meets this standard. New Construction 1.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 26, 2020 1602 WILSHIRE BOULEVARD WILSHIRE WOOD NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT C.2 - 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new house is a single-story stucco-clad building with a low-sloped membrane roof of varying height. Horizontal cedar siding is applied to the entry bay. The fenestration pattern is irregular throughout, consisting of metal doors and metal fixed and casement windows. 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: 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction shall not destroy historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment. The new building is differentiated from the historic buildings around it by its stucco cladding, low-sloped roof and fenestration pattern. Its one-story height, overall massing, and placement on the lot are compatible with its surroundings; its stucco cladding, flat roof, and undivided windows of varying dimensions are less compatible. 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall be undertaken in such a manner that if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. If the house were removed in the future, the integrity of the district would be unimpaired. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Comment on and release the permit.

C.3 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 26, 2020 HR-20-144852 1700 W. 32ND STREET OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1952 house and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish the existing building and salvage stone for reuse. 2) Construct a new primary building. The proposed 2-story house will be clad with salvaged masonry and stucco. It has a metal roof with compound roofline and varying slopes. The north elevation features a partial-width flat-roofed porch with steel columns, covered entryways, and an inset balcony. Its irregularly placed windows are undivided and fixed. The south elevation contains a similar covered entryway, a protruding picture window, and a single central undivided window at the second floor. The east elevation features a full-width porch with steel columns, sliding doors, and flat-roofed dormer with fixed windows. The west elevation has a shallower roofline with flat- and shed-roofed dormers, with fixed windows of varying sizes scattered throughout. 3) Construct a detached auxiliary building. The proposed 2-story garage apartment has a metal roof with “wounded dove” roofline. It is clad in stucco and features fixed irregularly placed windows to match the primary building. Its east elevation contains a large flat-roofed dormer, while its south elevation contains a double entryway covered by a flat metal roof with steel supports. ARCHITECTURE 1700 W. 32nd Street is a single-story Ranch-style house with an L-shaped plan, a cross-gabled and hipped roof with deep eaves, and coursed ashlar masonry veneer. Its main elevation features large multi-light metal picture windows, while its secondary elevations contain multi-light metal casement windows. RESEARCH The house at 1700 W. 32nd Street was constructed in 1952 by Jack Birge, who also constructed the building next door at 1702 W. 32nd Street. Its first occupants were Mark and Bertha Wentz, who lived in the home until at least 1959. The Wentzes moved to Austin in 1954 after Mark Wentz was appointed as a fire commissioner to the State Board of Insurance Commissioners. As Fire Commissioner, Wentz was involved in a series of reassignments, internal investigations, and statewide oversight that spanned the mid-1950s, as Governor Price Daniel proposed sweeping reorganizations of the State Board of Insurance Commissioners that would remove his predecessor’s appointments from the board—including Wentz. The Wentzes lived in the home until at least 1959. By 1964, it had become the Peter Pan School, which …

NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #1: WINDOW DETAILING The board expressed concern about the articulation of windows in the facades. They do not like windows that are in the same plane as the exterior cladding because it looks cheap. All windows will either be set back from the exterior surface with a casing, or protruding out from wall as a deep bay window. This will achieve depth and create detail shadows on the facades. Typical window casing, window set back from exterior cladding Bay window 6 October 5, 2020 Jefferson HouseMurray Legge Architecture LLC NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #2: DORMER SHAPE The board expressed their disapproval of the three box dormers of different sizes facing Jefferson Street. They were deemed out of character for the neighborhood. MLA revised the dormers by eliminating one, and combining the remaining two in a single traditional dormer with a shed roof. Revised Dormer with single shed roof 7 October 5, 2020 Jefferson HouseMurray Legge Architecture LLC NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #3: REUSE OF STONE The board expressed the desire to see the stone cladding of the existing house reused in some way. MLA proposes to use the stone as a low landscape element as a planter or low dividing wall that will be visible to the public. Behind it, a full hight fence will provide privacy from the busy street and be softened by climbing vines. The final extent of the stone planters will be determined after a material inventory of the existing masony is calculated.
