ZONING: All base zoning within the proposed historic district will have the HD (Historic Area Combining District) overlay added. No changes to base zoning are proposed by this application. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change to create the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District. QUALIFICATIONS FOR HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGNATION: The application for the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District meets all Code requirements for the formation of a historic district. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The proposed Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District is a largely intact postwar neighborhood that demonstrates the determination and success of the African American community in Austin. The neighborhood was developed by Black professionals for Black professionals. This was a major milestone at a time when many white Austinites with similar socioeconomic and community standing were buying suburban homes and moving out of the city. Racially restrictive covenants, redlining, prejudiced lenders, and other social and governmental barriers prevented African Americans from making the same move. Rogers Washington Holy Cross was a powerful symbolic response, and established a tight-knit neighborhood of movers and shakers in the Black community, Austin, and beyond. Early residents included Huston-Tillotson Chancellor John Q. Taylor King; Carnegie H. Mims, Jr., the first Ombudsman at the University of Texas; T. C. Calhoun, longtime principal of Kealing Junior High School; and numerous other educational leaders, including Willie Mae Kirk, Carnegie Harvard Mims, Sr., and Ira Poole The Kirk family lived on Maple Avenue; Ms. Kirk’s husband Lee Sr. was the first African American postal worker and certified pilot in Austin, and her son Ron served as Dallas’s first African American Mayor and an Obama cabinet member. Jimmy Snell was a City Council member who served as the first Black Mayor Pro Tem. Norman Scales was a member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen. Prominent business owners, some of the earliest graduates from UT following desegregation, and even more leaders also called the …
Dear Members of the Historic Landmark Commission I thank you for your service and making time to listen to public input regarding the application for the Historic District Application for the Rogers Washington Holy Cross neighborhood. My wife and I own and lease a contributing property associated with the application. We collectively spent 15 years in Austin. We moved away from Austin to support extended family in 2014. However, we loved living in Austin and kept our home so that we can retire there. We look forward to spending more time with our Austin friends and the broader community. We treat our lessees like we would want to be treated and invest in the home as if we lived there. In the last decade, we have invested in over $30,000 in maintenance and improvements, including approximately $6,000 in above-code energy efficiency improvements. I cannot think of a time when we denied a tenant a request, from paying for smart thermostats to indoor air quality tests. As recently as July of this year, we upgraded the HVAC equipment at our property in Rogers Washington to meet current Energy Star standards. In March of this year, we offered rent forgiveness to our tenants - no strings attached - to alleviate the stress of COVID19. I’d be happy to share with you other anecdotes that demonstrate how we care for our tenants and property. We know it is stressful to live in an ever changing and growing Austin. While we support the Rogers Washington community in their stated objectives, we ultimately voted against the design standards because: (1) the processes used to develop the design standards excluded us; (2) some original features are required to be preserved where replacements may perform better; (3) there appear to be conflicts within the standards, particularly when combined with existing and future development requirements; and (4) we see no institutional mechanisms in place at the City to deal with these conflicts and democratize voices when preservation requires trade-offs. We found the processes used to develop the standards to be exclusive and opaque. We asked to join the design committee and neighborhood association and/or connect with the design committee by phone. We paid for a Basecamp account to share information online, as there is no online presence for the neighborhood association, the design committee, or draft documents submitted to the City. None of these efforts were successful. Twice …
ROGERS WASHINGTON HOLY CROSS HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGN STANDARDS 1 CONTEXT Historic Rogers Washington Holy Cross was one of the first neighborhoods developed by black professionals for black professionals, and therefore the development pattern of the neighborhood is strongly tied to the cultural significance of the neighborhood as a professional, middle-class, suburban neighborhood. Historic Rogers Washington Holy Cross is an auto-oriented development. Therefore, the patterns of development are based on a street pattern favoring the auto, not the pedestrian. Much of the neighborhood is characterized by curvilinear streets without sidewalks. Construction in the neighborhood began around 1950. The oldest structure documented in the neighborhood is from 1947, but the era of significance of the District is between 1950 and 1965, when the majority of the houses were built. The District features classic mid-century American architecture, which falls into three primary styles: Minimal Traditional, Ranch and Contemporary. 2 INTRODUCTION The primary goal of this historic district is to preserve the overall character, identity, and presence of the Rogers Washington Holy Cross neighborhood. Buildings, sites, and landscapes help create the identity and character of the neighborhood. Design standards serve to preserve and protect areas of historical and architectural importance, as well as the overall visual characteristics of the district. The design standards recognize that change is inevitable. They are written to enable and empower property owners to acknowledge and maintain the integrity of historic buildings and comply with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Consequently, the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Design Standards provide guidance and support for the repair, rehabilitation, preservation and restoration of historic buildings within the historic district, and to ensure that additions and new construction are compatible with the architectural character of the district. Historic district designation does not require property owners to make changes to their properties, such as returning buildings to their historic appearance. Additionally, the historic review process that results from district designation is limited to projects that affect the exterior of the building and its site. Interior remodeling projects do not require Historic Preservation Office or Historic Landmark Commission review and approval. This document is a tool for property owners, tenants, contractors, design professionals, realtors, and anyone else planning a change to the exterior or site of a building or new construction within the district; as well as the Historic Landmark Commission in its evaluation of whether to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for any …
Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District Preservation Plan & Narrative History 1 Rogers Washington Holy Cross Preservation Plan Overview About the historic district The Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District is one of the most intact concentrations of post-World War II housing for African Americans in Austin. As an early neighborhood developed by black professionals for black professionals, its development pattern is strongly tied to its cultural significance as a professional, middle-class, suburban neighborhood. Neighborhood residents positively impacted science, architecture, local and national government, education, the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force, and more. Architecturally, the houses represent post- war stylistic trends, including ranch, minimal traditional, contemporary and split-level styles. John Chase, the first African American to graduate from the University of Texas School of Architecture, designed houses in the district. Nash Phillips, a well-known builder, is also associated with the district. Historic district (HD) designation is intended to protect and enhance existing historic resources. By establishing Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District zoning, the City of Austin provides a mechanism to ensure that architectural changes within the district are compatible with its historic character. Some of the homes within the district may not have sufficient historical or architectural significance to be designated as individual historic landmarks, but they have significance as part of the neighborhood fabric and context. Rogers Washington Holy Cross has retained its original appearance and landscape patterns and conveys a distinct and accurate sense of its own history. As noted in the East Austin Historic Resource Survey, the district is significant for its relevance to important historic development and architectural trends in Austin, including post- World War II development patterns and its associations with Nash Phillips and John Chase, both known for their impact on Austin’s growth and development. In sum, Rogers Washington Holy Cross meets several of the criteria for local designation, including architecture, historical associations, and community value. The neighborhood is overwhelmingly comprised of historic-age resources that retain architectural integrity (47 of 57 resources), and it has an exceptional ratio of contributing to noncontributing properties with 82% contributing and 18% non-contributing. The Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District represents the history and significance of an underrepresented population and under-told story of the history of Austin. Purpose of the preservation plan The City of Austin benefits from having neighborhoods and buildings that represent its diverse history and with unique architectural styles. The Rogers Washington Holy …

July 17, 2020 Emily Reed, Chair City of Austin Historic Landmark Commission Re: Rogers Washington Holy Cross District LHD Application Dear Ms. Reed, Preservation Austin is so pleased to offer this letter of support for the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District application. Our organization has been Austin’s leading nonprofit voice for historic preservation since 1953, with a mission to promote our city’s diverse cultural heritage through the preservation of historic places. We strongly support the establishment of a local historic district in Rogers Washington Holy Cross (RWHC). The Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District is one of the most intact concentrations of post- World War II housing for African Americans in Austin. As an early neighborhood developed by Black professionals for Black professionals, Rogers Washington Holy Cross represents the strength and tenacity of many African American families who dedicated their lives to the education and uplifting of their children and their community. The RWHC neighborhood is small in size but large in significance, including several architecturally distinct buildings designed by African American architect John Chase, FAIA, and many residences of individuals and families who made meaningful contributions to the city of Austin and beyond. Historic district status would help preserve this unique cultural and built legacy. The RWHC neighborhood organization has been committed to investing in the needs and improvements of the neighborhood for decades, despite the pressures of systemic racism and economic inequities. The neighborhood association has worked collaboratively and creatively with homeowners, renters, and businesses over the last three years to develop design standards that incorporate the spirit of preservation and the dynamic realities of this central East Austin neighborhood. Our nonprofit has supported this community-based, volunteer-driven effort for the past two years, including through two matching grants to help cover application fees. We’ve been honored to work with these advocates, and urge the Historic Landmark Commission to support making this district a reality. Sincerely, Lori Martin, President Dear Commissioners, Re: Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross District Preservation Application On behalf of the City of Austin's Equity Office, please accept this letter of support for the Rogers- Washington-Holy Cross Neighborhood Association [RWHC] Historic District Preservation Application. The City of Austin’s Strategic Direction 2023 calls for the focus on culture and lifelong learning being enriched by Austin’s unique civic, cultural, ethnic, and learning opportunities. Unfortunately, one of the major challenges we face is the loss of that culture and history of …

H ISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JU LY 27, 2020 C14H-1996-0003 BA RTHOLOMEW-ROBINSON BUILDING 1415 LAVACA STREET B.1 - 1 PR OPOSAL Construct a mid-rise addition to the building. PR OJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes to construct a mid-rise hotel addition to the building, which has been rendered untenantable by long-standing sewerage and drainage problems. The proposed addition will rise from within the existing walls of the building, and will have 10 stories of hotel rooms above a 24-foot tall glass-clad story that will house hotel meeting rooms and amenities. The total height of the building will be 149 feet. The base of the addition, clad in glass, will be set back 10 feet from the existing parapet wall of the historic structure on the Lavaca Street frontage and 14 feet behind the 15th Street frontage of the building. The remainder of the addition will be cantilvered out over the walls of the existing building; the bottom of the cantilevered section will be 8 feet above the existing mansard cupolas. The main entrance to the building will be located at the historic entrance location at the corner of 15th and Lavaca Streets. None of the windows or doors on the existing building will be modified. The walls of the addition will present as white and light gray. STA NDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1) A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. Evaluation: The building has historically had a commercial use, most recently offices. The change of use to a hotel necessitates the construction of the proposed addition. The existing historic walls, openings, and distinctive mansard turrets on the corners of the original part of the building will be retained but will be visually impacted by the size and scale of an addition that does not meet Standard 9. Thus, the project also does not meet Standard 1. 2) The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. Evaluation: The existing building will be retained. The addition will be built inside the …

July 14, 2020 Ms. Emily Reed, Chair and Historic Landmark Commissioners City of Austin Landmark Commission Historic Preservation Office Planning and Zoning Dept. P.O. Box 1088, Austin, Texas 78767 Dear Ms. Reed and Commissioners, Re: Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross District Preservation Application Please accept this letter of support for the Roger-Washington-Holy Cross Neighborhood Association (RWHC) Historic District Designation Application. As you may know the Austin History Center, Austin Public Library has long been a supporter of preserving communities and history, particularly in the East Austin sector of the City of Austin. The Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross neighborhood was identified in the East Austin Historic Resources Survey (2016) as a potential local historic district, eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The history of the neighborhood tells a rich story of the development of East Austin in the Post-War and early years of the civil rights movement. Initially developed for the African American community veterans returning from serving their country in World War II, the addition of land owned by local Black physician, Dr. M. J. Washington, created space for custom designed homes for luminary figures within the community. It became home to Huston-Tillotson President, John Q. Taylor King, Oscar L. Thompson, the first African American graduate of the University of Texas at Austin and HT professor, Austin Public Library branch namesake Willie Mae Kirk; Principal of Kealing Jr. High School and 75th President of the Colored Teachers State Association, T.C. Calhoun; businesswoman Della Phillips, and other noted professionals. The architecture of the homes speaks to the time period; houses vary in style from John Chase’s two mid-century modern designs to handsome split-level and one-story ranch homes. Many of the current residents have lived in the neighborhood all their lives, bringing a pride of continuous ownership and history that is being lost in Austin. Austin is quickly losing much of the fabric that encases the history of the city. East Austin has been especially hard hit, losing historically and culturally significant places. It is important to recognize and preserve spaces like the Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross neighborhood, in order to exhibit a physical manifestation of our full American history, not just read a plaque about it. Again, I hope you will support the Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross neighborhood’s request which clearly meets the designation criteria established by code. I agree that its history is worth saving, and I support their efforts. Sincerely, kYmberly Keeton kYmberly Keeton, M.L.S., C.A. …
Emily Reed, Chair City of Austin Historic Landmark Commission Re: Certificate of Appropriateness for Bartholomew-Robinson building at 1415 Lavaca Street Dear Chair, Preservation Austin respectfully requests that the Historic Landmark Commission deny the Certificate of Appropriateness for the Bartholomew-Robinson building at 1415 Lavaca Street. The owner’s Certificate of Appropriateness application shows the loss of all but the building’s exterior walls and construction of a tower within its historic footprint. We feel strongly that the project as presented does not meet the requirements of the City Code or the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards as they apply to this City of Austin Landmark property. Section 25-11-243 of the City Code states that when taking action on a Certificate of Appropriateness the Historic Landmark Commission, “shall consider the United States Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation, 36 Code of Federal Regulations Section 67.7(b).” The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (SOI Standards) state the following: 2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. 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. 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. “The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring & Reconstructing Historic Buildings” provides clarifying recommendations for applying the SOI Standards including constructing new additions that, (1) result in the least possible loss of historic materials; (2) are subordinate to the historic building; (3) are set back from the wall plane of the historic building; (4) are inconspicuous when viewed from surrounding streets; (5) are limited to one additional story in height; (6) appear as a separate building; (7) and do not negatively affect the building. The design presented to the HLC does not meet any of those clarifying guidelines. We appreciate that the needs of property owners change over time and understand that large towers will be constructed …

Good Morning Steve and Cara, As you should know, GNDC has an affordable senior housing project in the works for the Lopez Property. We are at the point where the site plan can be approved, however, because the property has historic zoning, the site development permit cannot be issued until your office provides a certificate of appropriateness. We have until mid-August to get that done, but would love to have it sooner. We have made great efforts in the design process to maintain the structural and historic integrity of the Routon-Alvarez-Lopez House; stepping the tower away from the house (despite the incredible site constraints we face), removed balconies, reduced the size and minimized the visual impact of the hallway connecting the tower with the house. I joke with people that we should have started with the idea of of relocating to house to a site somewhere else and then, when that got shot down, moved to a design where we built over top of the house, and then, after that got shot down, proposed our initial design and it would have been hailed as wonderful. Instead, we tried to design as sensitively as possible from the start while being responsible to our mission of providing as much affordable housing as possible on a site with zoning and development entitlements that call for dense and tall buildings and prohibit the development of single-family structures. As you know, GNDC includes historic preservation as part of our mission, so the idea of demolition or relocation is something we would turn to only as a last resort. We're going through a Section 106 review and the Texas Historical Commission reviewed our initial designs (which were sent to you as early as January and again in March) and they made recommendations for changes which we then incorporated into the designs that I've attached. On May 27th, Lydia Woods-Boone,Program Coordinator for the Federal and State Review Program responded to the revised design as follows: Thank you for taking the time to change the design in order to more appropriately work with the historic structure. This design is greatly improved and seems to address all of our concerns. Please have the applicant resubmit the project with these designs through our eTRAC system so they can be formally reviewed under the Section 106 process. If there are any additional questions just let me know. Mr. Hatch, Thanks, Lydia …

PR OPOSAL PR OJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes the construction of a mid-rise residential tower to provide affordable housing for seniors at the rear of the historic house. The proposed residential tower will be 9 stories (just over 112 feet) tall, with a slanted roof. The building will have stucco, glazed brick, and siding as its principal materials. There will be 6’-8” between the back wall of the house and the closest wall of the proposed building. The house will be used as a community room for the proposed new affordable housing project. STA NDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1) A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. Evaluation: This project does not really affect the physical structure or the use of the existing house. It had a residential use historically, and is now being proposed as a community room for the adjacent residential project. 2) The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. Evaluation: The house will not be affected by the construction of the adjacent building. No work is proposed for the historic house. The new building is over 6 feet from the back of the historic house; there will be an effect on the spatial relationships which currently exist on this property, but the general context of the neighborhood has changed dramatically over the past few years with the construction of adjacent apartment buildings. 3) Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. Evaluation: No work is proposed for the historic house. 4) Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Evaluation: N/A 5) Distinctive materials, features, …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.6 - 1 JULY 27, 2020 THE UMLAUF 506 BARTON BOULEVARD GF-2020-098312 PROPOSAL This application is pursuant to a Heritage Grant application to replace the roof in-kind, repoint brick, and repair roof framing in a rear area. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The project has three parts: 1) Replace the existing roof with 3-tab asphalt shingles and standing-seam metal. This is an in-kind replacement. 2) Repoint the brick cladding with hydraulic cement where cracks evidence a foundation shift. The mortar will not match existing; the applicant states that cement must be used to prevent water infiltration. 3) Close underpinning with chopped limestone to prevent animal entry; work will match existing. 4) Reframe the rear (north) laundry area: replace rotted roof joists, tongue and groove decking, and fascia. No changes will be made to exterior walls. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks and to any other properties receiving Hotel Occupancy Tax funding through a Heritage Grant. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 6) Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. The roof and pointing are in-kind work that will match existing materials. The project meets this standard. 7) Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. Hydraulic cement will be used for repointing. The applicant is consulting with historic preservation professionals at the City’s Parks and Recreation Department to ensure that treatments will not damage historic materials, and the department will have a representative on-site during the repairs. The project meets this standard. The project meets this standard. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the project, except for the mortar; authorize staff to review and administratively approve the mortar type.
Hyde Park Topper Approval Minutes from November 26, 2012 Staff report HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION NOVEMBER 26, 2012 CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS LHD-2012-0034 Sign Toppers Hyde Park Local Historic District PROPOSAL Fabricate and install five "sign toppers" identifying the Hyde Park Local Historic District. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Proposal calls for the fabrication and installation of signs identifying the Hyde Park Local Historic District. The signs will be funded by the Hyde Park Neighborhood Association (HPNA) and will be installed by the City's Transportation Department on top of existing street signs at the following intersections: Southeast corner of W. 40th Street and Avenue B with the sign parallel to Avenue B. Northeast corner of e. 44th Street and Avenue G with the sign parallel to Avenue G. Northeast corner of E. 39th Street and Avenue G with the sign parallel to E. 39th St. Northeast corner of E. 43rd Street and Avenue F with the sign parallel to Avenue F Northeast corner of W. 44th Street and Avenue B with the sign parallel to Avenue B The approximately 9" x 24" signs will be fabricated of aluminum with black background with white/silver reflective graphics and text. The HPNA has requested that the design include the City of Austin seal, name of the district, the date Hyde Park neighborhood was established, and the date the Local Historic District was established. The intent is for the approved design to become the standard template for signage in all City of Austin local historic districts, and that sign toppers only be allowed for Local Historic Districts. Funding for additional signs in the Hyde Park Local Historic District and in other districts is not currently available. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Hyde Park Local Historic District Goals and Design Standards do not specifically provide guidance for this type of street sign, however the signs as proposed do not adversely impact the historic character or integrity of the district or streetscape. Additionally, by identifying the historic district, they provide important recognition of the efforts of residents to establish the LHD, as well as identify the zoning classification for residents and visitors. Historic Preservation Office staff met with representatives of the Harthan Street Local Historic District and Castle Hill Local Historic District, as well as residents from neighborhoods interested in pursuing LHD zoning, to obtain feedback on the proposed design. Most people expressed the opinion that including dates for both the establishment …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing contributing building. 2) Construct new 53-floor, 606’ tower, occupying two adjacent lots at 90 (now Container Bar) and 92 Rainey Street. The tower includes: a) Below-ground garage b) Commercial space (first and second floors plus third-floor bar area): i. Materials throughout include a transparent glass curtainwall system with metal mullions; simplified pilasters of textured stone at bay divisions; recessed mural panels with overhead lighting, and textured concrete cladding. Flat metal awnings above each tenant entrance at 1 and 1.5 stories are topped with lit signage. ii. At the east elevation, vertically-articulated panel systems of varying widths define tenant spaces. A metal shipping container with viewport projects from recessed bar space at the second floor, hovering above the streetscape. An angled precast concrete panel projects through both recessed bar spaces. c) Hotel and residential spaces: i. The tower is clad in a reflective glass curtainwall system throughout, with precast concrete accent panels on secondary facades. ii. Levels 8-52 are set back from the lower section of the tower (at roughly 177’). iii. After level 24, which separates the hotel units from residences and short-term rental units, glass balconies project from the north and south elevations. d) Roof deck RESEARCH The house at 92 Rainey Street was built around 1911. Its first owner was farrier Alonzo B. Cook, who ran a shop on Congress Avenue. From 1914 to 1920, the house had several short-term occupants, including a painter, a grocer, and a night watchman. By 1920, it had been purchased by Emil and Edith Bohls. Emil Bohls owned a restaurant in 1920, but he soon opened an auto paint shop on 5th Street. By 1937, as Austin’s automobile culture continued to grow, Bohls had expanded his repertoire to include a tourist camp and filling station on South Congress Avenue. By 1939, the Bohls family sold the home to Charles B. and Pearl Eustace. The Eustace family had lived across the street at 95 Rainey since 1922. Charles had recently retired from the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company after a 39-year tenure. As one of the earliest telephone employees in Austin, he was an active member of the …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes modifications to the exterior of the house to accommodate a walk-in cooler on the north side and a wood deck wrapping around the south and west sides, and the construction of a separate building behind the house for restrooms, storage, and an outdoor bar area. The front of the house will see the fewest modifications: only a deteriorating plaster porch pier and porch railing will be removed. On the north wall, the existing wood windows will be removed to accommodate the addition of the walk-in cooler, which will have wood siding and a flat roof. On the south wall, the existing wood-sided infill with a vinyl window will be removed and be replaced with a door and a steel-framed fixed sash window. On the west (rear) wall, the existing back door and window will be removed, as will the wood-sided infill that wraps around from the south side of the house. The infill section will have the wraparound of the steel-framed fixed sash window from the south side of the building. A new deck will surround the house on the south and west sides, and provide access to a new structure in the back yard, housing restrooms and storage. The existing composition shingle roof on the house will be replaced with a metal roof. STAFF COMMENTS STAFF RECOMMENDATION The ca. 1927 bungalow is contributing to the Rainey Street National Register Historic District. Release the building permit after completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package consisting of photographs of all four elevations and a measured sketch plan to record existing conditions and for archiving at the Austin History Center. Staff requests that the applicant reconsider the installation of the steel-framed glass at the rear of the building in favor of an architectural feature more compatible with the Craftsman detailing of the house. Overall, the appearance of the house …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS JULY 27, 2020 NRD-2020-0025 2338 COLUMBUS DRIVE C.2 - 1 ZILKER PARK NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Construct a new maintenance barn, pole barns, pond, and associated support structures. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construction of a maintenance barn. The proposed barn will be clad in prefinished corrugated metal panels. Flat prefinished metal canopies will shade windows and entrances, and an irregular, angled metal shed roofline extends over bay doors at the south and east elevations. Rectangular fixed-pane windows are arranged in a regular pattern at south and west elevations, while a single horizontal window appears on the east façade. 2) Construction of two shed-roofed pole barns. 3) Construction of a biofiltration pond. 4) Construction of a staff parking lot. 5) Construction of a chemical storage building and rainwater tanks. The storage building will be constructed of split-face concrete masonry units, with a metal shed roof. 6) Construction of a security fence. 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. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. No historic buildings, structures, or significant landscape features will be removed. 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 proposed new building is differentiated from historic park structures in its siting, materials, and form. While its massing, cladding, and roofline are at odds with the rustic setting and character-defining features of historic park buildings, it does not appear to be entirely visible from Columbus Drive, and will not be accessible to the public. The pole barns and other support structures are sited far back from the road and should not be visible from the street. Significant tree cover in this area will also shield the new construction from view of other areas of the park. 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 …

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. Brick detail on porch matches brick sidewalk next to circle drive that is not original.

ARCHITECTURE 2-story irregular-plan house with Classical Revival influences, brick cladding, 1-over-1 wood-sash windows, and a central chimney. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project includes ten parts: 1) Alter window openings to narrow, vertically oriented single windows spaced evenly across the primary (south) façade. Window openings on the rest of the house will be altered as well to new vertically oriented dimensions. One window opening will be added to the east elevation of the 1997 addition. 2) Alter the front door opening to be recessed by 2’, with sidelights and a stone surround. 3) Replace windows with casement multi-lite clad-wood windows on the front and side elevations and casement steel-sash windows on the rear elevation. 4) Replace door with a paneled wood door with multi-lite clad-wood sidelights. 5) Remove brick to insulate the house; replace with new brick. 6) Construct a new chimney on the east elevation. 7) Replace the roof material in-kind. 8) Construct a metal awning at the rear of the left side (west) elevation. The awning will be gently sloped and supported by metal cables attached to the side addition. 9) Construct narrow 2-story rear additions to the rear (north) and west elevations. The additions will be clad in brick and stucco and capped with metal roofs that continue the slope of the existing roof. The side addition features shallow square bays tucked under the second-story roofline. The rear addition will include a covered porch at the northwest corner, a shallow second-floor balcony in the center, and a stone patio at the northeast corner. 10) Demolish the one-story detached garage and construct and 2-story garage clad in hardiplank and capped with a front-gabled roof covered in asphalt shingles. The garage will feature casement multi-lite clad-wood windows and a wood garage door. A metal staircase on the north elevation will lead to a second-floor balcony with metal railings and a wood door.

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.

It has been an eyesore since before Thanksgiving 2019. I expect they'll move to demolition quickly, but it would be considerate of the neighbors, (actually the whole neighborhood, since the property is on a main entrance to the neighborhood) to have it look decent until it is a construction site.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A HISTORIC SIGN PERMIT JULY 27, 2020 SB-2020-09136 85 RAINEY STREET RAINEY STREET NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICT C.6 - 1 PROPOSAL Install a neon pylon sign. 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 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.

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 find it interesting that the street was named after Sol Wilson given the time period. I'd also like to agree that if it is not postponed to recommend rehabilitation or relocations over demolition of the structure. Thank you for your time and consideration.

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. Sarah Searcy 1180 1/2 Sol Wilson Ave. P.S.‐‐Would also love to know why some houses are "1/2," even though they're all single family.

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.

Gaudette, Angela From: Sent: To: Subject: John A Tate Monday, July 27, 2020 4:09 PM PAZ Preservation Supporting preservation of 2502 Park View Drive (HDP-2020-0214) *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** To the Members of the Historic Landmark Commission: I support preservation of the existing house at 2502 Park View Drive. The staff analysis and letters from Elizabeth Porterfield of Mid Tex Mod and Lori Martin of Preservation Austin agree that the house meets several of the criteria for historic status. The residence is an excellent early work of local architect, Fred Day, who designed a number of other iconic Austin buildings. In addition, a National Register Historic District designation is underway for the Austin Air‐ Conditioned Village, and this is the best existing example of the buildings from that project. Please vote to preserve 2502 Park View Drive. Thank you for your kind attention.
