QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture and historical associations HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: N/A PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: N/A DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The property is recommended eligible as a City of Austin landmark and individually eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places in the 2016 East Austin Historic Resource Survey.

It is a one-story, L-plan, Folk Victorian house with cross-hipped metal roof; horizontal wood siding; a partial-width, shed-roofed porch with chamfered posts and jig-sawn brackets; and 2:2 wood windows with screens. The building retains integrity, with extant original windows and decorative details—uncommon for homes of this age in the area. Historical associations: The 2016 East Austin Historic Resource Survey identifies the property as an integral resource associated with East Austin’s development patterns, demographic shifts, and resident lifeways. The building was consistently occupied by middle- to working-class renters whose occupations and terms of residency were dependent upon the growth of the greater East Austin area. The demographic shift from residents of Anglo and European-American descent to those of Latino descent during the 1950s is indicative of larger demographic trends in East Austin. Thus, the building’s historical associations exemplify general residency patterns in East Austin.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET HLC DATE: May 24, 2021 PC DATE: N/A CASE NUMBER: Pending APPLICANT: Historic Landmark Commission OWNERS: Erika and Patrick Brosnan HISTORIC NAME: Posey House WATERSHED: Boggy Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 1304 Bob Harrison Street ZONING CHANGE: SF-3-NP to SF-3-H-NP COUNCIL DISTRICT: 1 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change from family residence – neighborhood plan (SF-3-NP) to family residence – historic landmark – neighborhood plan (SF-3-H-NP) combining district zoning. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture and historical associations HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: N/A PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: N/A DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house was recommended as a contributing property in a potential historic district by the East Austin Historic Resources Survey (2016). CITY COUNCIL DATE: N/A ORDINANCE READINGS: N/A CASE MANAGER: Cara Bertron NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS: Austin Independent School District, Austin Lost and Found Pets, Austin Neighborhoods Council, Bike Austin, Del Valle Community Coalition, East Austin Conservancy, Friends of AustinNeighborhoods, Homeless Neighborhood Association, Neighborhood Empowerment Foundation, Neighbors United forProgress, Organization of Central East Austin Neighborhoods, Preservation Austin, SELTexas, Sierra Club, Austin Regional Group, Swede Hill Neighborhood Association BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION: Architecture: The Posey House, built around 1924 by Samuel Posey, is significant as a modest example of the National Folk style. The one-story house is clad in board and batten wood siding and capped with a pyramidal roof with two pipe chimneys and exposed rafter tails. Features include non-original vinyl-sash windows and a non-original flush wood door, which are respectively proposed to be replaced with 2-over-2 double-hung clad-wood windows and a wood door that are in keeping with likely original elements. A partial-width entry porch has a shed roof covered in corrugated metal and supported by square columns. Historical Associations: The Posey House is significant for its association with Samuel Posey and his descendants, working-class African Americans who purchased and maintained a home for decades at a time when few financial, policy, and legal resources were available to Black families. Two generations of the Posey family lived in the house for more than 45 years, until at least 1969. Appraisal district records show that the Poseys sold the house in 1998, after 75 years of ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A PHONE: 512-974-1446 ACTION: N/A ownership.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-044151 1304 BOB HARRISON STREET POSEY HOUSE A.2 – 1 PROPOSAL Partially demolish a ca. 1924 house; construct a rear addition. The house was recommended as a contributing resource to a potential historic district by the East Austin Historic Resource Survey (2016). The Historic Landmark Commission initiated historic zoning on April 26, 2021 and will consider recommending historic zoning on May 24, 2021. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project involves ten parts: with matching materials and profiles. 1) Repair of the front porch. If elements must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, they will be replaced in-kind, 2) Replacement of all vinyl-sash windows with 2-over-2 double-hung clad-wood windows in existing window openings. 3) Replacement of the existing door with a period-appropriate wood door. 4) Replacement of the asphalt shingle roof with a metal roof. 5) Addition of skylights on secondary (east and west) roof slopes. 6) Repair existing wood siding, trim, and rafter tails. 7) Demolition of side and rear additions. 8) Demolition of a rear deck. 9) Construction of a rear addition with a footprint of 600 square feet. The addition consists of 2-story and 1-story portions clad in vertical metal siding and capped by flat roofs. Windows are casement and fixed aluminum-sash. It is set back behind the historic portion of the existing building, nearly 30’ from the front wall. 10) Construction of a concrete deck behind the addition. ARCHITECTURE One-story house clad in board and batten wood siding and capped with a pyramidal roof with exposed rafter tails. Features include vinyl-sash windows, a flush wood replacement door, and two pipe chimneys. A partial-width entry porch has a shed roof covered in corrugated metal and supported by square columns. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Repair and Alterations The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards would apply to the proposed project if the property were designated as a landmark: General Standards 1.1 Do not remove intact historic material from the exterior of a building. 1.2 Always attempt repair first. Replacement should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary, and for the smallest area possible. 1.3 When historic material must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, replacement material should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in …
B.2 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 C14H-1986-0015, C14H-2004-0008 GRANDBERRY BUILDING AND MITCHELL-ROBERTSON BUILDING CONGRESS AVENUE HISTORIC DISTRICT 907, 909, AND 911 CONGRESS AVENUE PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Review of a plan to deconstruct, store, and re-erect historic building façades. Catalog and store, then re-erect the historic building façades as part of a redevelopment project at a later date. In conjunction with proposed additions, the project received preliminary approval from the Historic Landmark Commission on January 26, 2015 and June 25, 2018, pending development of more detailed plans for treatment of the façades. On March 24, 2021, the Building Standards Commission (BSC) issued an order requiring that conditions be remedied within 90 days or imposing fines on the property owner. The BSC orders are uploaded as backup to this meeting for reference. In discussion at the April 24, 2021 meeting, Commissioners suggested that the applicant determine if scaffolding erected for purposes of documenting and dismantling the façades would suffice for compliance with the BSC orders. The orders do not mention stabilization or bracing as options, and Code Department staff have confirmed that scaffolding would be insufficient to meet the requirements. Instead, the orders require repairs to fully remedy the violations, which include cracks and openings in exterior walls, roof and drainage issues, and missing windows, among other concerns. Per the applicant, stabilization and repair of the buildings in place is not technically feasible due to the extent of deterioration, including mortar loss, shear failures and racking, and the inability to adequately shore the façades following demolition of masonry party walls that provide lateral support. The wall abutting the adjacent historic landmark building, in particular, requires demolition to allow that property owner to perform needed repairs. The proposed scope of work entails developing a detailed plan for deconstruction and reconstruction of the historic façades, including as an initial phase: review of existing documentation, visual and non-destructive analysis of building materials and assemblies, structural evaluation, and development of a finalized scope of work and sequence of implementation. Laser scanning has been performed, and analysis of the resulting point cloud is underway. Deconstruction will be done by hand and treated much like an archeological investigation, with specific conditions and hidden elements documented as work progresses. This information will inform preparation of reconstruction drawings and specifications. The applicant proposes to place a restrictive covenant on the property …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 C14H-1981-0018 KENNEY HOUSE 611 W. 22ND STREET B.10 - 1 PROPOSAL Install signs for a new coffee house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Install a sign containing the company logo and the words “Pick Up” crafted from aluminum channel letters on the fascia of the balcony on the north and east elevation of the house. These signs will be illuminated by an external source above the channel letters and logo. Each logo will be 1’-6” in diameter. Letters will be slightly smaller. 2) Install a monument sign on the northeast corner of the property. This sign will be externally illuminated and will rest on a stone base. The actual sign will be 4’-8” tall and 3’-6” wide. 3) Install vinyl company-associated signs in the windows on the north and east elevations of the house. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW SIZE II. The City of Austin’s Sign Standards control the type and number of signs proposed at historic landmarks: I. FLUSH-MOUNTED SIGNS SIGN TYPES A. A flush-mounted wall sign is one that is mounted flat to the wall. LOCATION Locate a flush-mounted wall sign just above the display window. Do not locate a flush-mounted wall sign above second-floor windows. When feasible, place a wall sign such that it aligns with others in the block. When planning a wall sign, determine if decorative moldings exist that could define a “sign panel.” If so, locate flush-mounted signs such that they fit within panels formed by moldings or transom panels on the façade. In no case should a sign obscure significant façade features. INAPPROPRIATE SIGN TYPES In general, the maximum wall sign area on a building should not exceed 7% of the overall façade area; in some cases, however, the Commission may consider approving a maximum of 10%, if overall compatibility with the District is demonstrated. The maximum height of an individual flush-mounted sign shall be 2 feet. NUMBER OF SIGNS Only one flush-mounted sign shall be allowed for each distinct façade module. Signs that are out of character with those seen historically, and that would alter the historic character of the street. Free-standing signs, either pole-mounted or monument types. Animated signs. Sandwich (or menu) boards that stand on the sidewalk are generally discouraged. Any sign that visually overpowers the building or …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-039343 SMOOT/TERRACE PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 612 HIGHLAND AVENUE B.3 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a 1-story house with a lower level and partial basement; renovate the existing garage. The proposed project is a 1-story house clad in horizontal hardiplank siding and capped by a combination hipped and flat roof covered in standing-seam metal. Features include a shed-roofed front dormer, full-height fixed and casement steel-sash windows, a fully glazed steel-frame front door, and a stucco chimney. Concrete steps provide access to a full-width, 11’ deep front porch with a low stucco wall, vertical metal railings, and flat metal roof with wood soffit. A screened porch on the south is capped by a low-pitched roof and set back 51’ from the front wall. A lower-level opening to the rear of the property is minimally visible from the street. An existing detached garage is proposed to be renovated. Changes include replacement of horizontal wood siding with board and batten hardiplank siding, replacement of the garage doors, and in-kind replacement of the roof covering. The garage is accessed by the rear alley and not visible from Highland Avenue. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Smoot/Terrace Park Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1. New construction shall have the same street orientation and distance from adjacent buildings as the contributing buildings in the same block. The building sits on the previous historic building’s footprint (destroyed by fire), with the same orientation and distance as contributing buildings on the block. The project meets this standard. 2. Setbacks for new construction shall be consistent with setbacks of the district’s contributing houses. The building’s setback aligns with the adjacent contributing building on the south. The project meets this standard. 4. Design new buildings so that they are compatible with, but differentiated from, historic buildings in the district. The building’s scale and massing are compatible with nearby historic buildings. Elements such as the hipped roof form, dormer window, and full-width front porch present a modern take on historic architecture found elsewhere in the district. The triple banks of windows on the front wall and in the dormer reference window patterns in nearby historic buildings, with more vertical proportions that are compatible with the modern style and steeper roof pitch. The horizontal siding and porch railing reference cladding and porch …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 C14H-1975-0003; HR-2021-053747 LINDEMANN HOUSE 1100 E. 8TH ST. B.4 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct perimeter brick retaining walls with metal fencing. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construct brick retaining walls along the E. 8th St. and Waller St. sides of the property. The walls will be in two tiers, each a maximum of 3’ high, with a planting bed between. The brick, which will match an existing planter at the rear of the property, is close in appearance to the brick of the house. See image, below. 2) Along the upper wall will be 3’-high decorative metal fencing to match an existing gate at the rear of the property. The gate has metal pickets with arches and finials. ARCHITECTURE Constructed ca. 1887, the Lindemann House is a 1 ½-story Folk Victorian house built of Austin common brick. The house has a side-gabled roof with a centered, front-facing gable. The full-width porch has a jigsawn balustrade between six square columns with chamfered corners, decorative trim, and jigsawn brackets. Windows are 2:2 double-hung wood within segmental arched openings. The house sits on a considerable rise above E. 8th and Waller streets. A raised lawn surrounding the house is reached by steps from the corner and side street, with decorative metal gates and railings. Between, dense primrose jasmine grows along the slope out to the curb line, with no sidewalk. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Sites and streetscapes The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects at historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.1 Do not grade, fill, or excavate unless it is to solve a drainage or flooding problem. The project will leave the upper lawn around the house at the same level. The brick retaining walls will provide a more durable and permanent solution for the significant slope between the lawn and street levels. The design also will have a greater sense of openness than the current dense plantings. 2.4 If constructing a new street-side fence or site wall, design it so that the materials, style, and scale are compatible with and differentiated from the architectural style and period of the building and are in keeping with historic fence styles and heights in the historic district. a. New front fences must be …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 C14H-2009-0021 JACKSON-NOVY-KELLY-HOEY HOUSE 2406 HARRIS BLVD. B.5 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a swimming pool and perimeter fence. Note that the design of these elements has been revised, following denial of a certificate of appropriateness for a pool at the March 22, 2021 Historic Landmark Commission meeting. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construct a pool in front yard, fully integrated into the slope of the site and without a raised edge. Surrounding the pool will be a limestone patio in an area where a limestone patio already exists. The pool will be to the south end of the lot, largely offset from the façade of the house. Pool equipment will be located near the south property line, recessed further than the rear of the one-story side porch of the house. 2) Construct a transparent fence at the perimeter of the property. The fence will be either iron pickets with iron posts, similar to the fence at the Governor’s Mansion but of lesser height, or iron pickets between masonry piers, similar to the open fencing and limestone piers at the Fred and Margaret Sharp House (not the solid wall; see description and photo, below). The applicant welcomes the Commission’s direction regarding the design. ARCHITECTURE Two-story, cross-gabled Tudor Revival house with brick cladding and half-timbering and stucco in the front-facing gable end. The house was designated for its architecture and historic associations. The site was not mentioned in the landmark nomination; it is significant as the setting of the landmark house and not in its own right. The front yard is substantial, with a 96’ setback from the curb to the front of the house. The house also sits at a noticeable rise from Harris Blvd., with the first-floor level 84” above the street. The primary character-defining features of the site are this subtly bermed topography and the central steps aligned with the front entrance. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation 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. The property will continue to be used as a private residence. The proposed location of …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-067051 1805 E. 3RD STREET HERRERA HOUSE B.6 – 1 Replace the front doors and paint the historic house; construct a 2-story rear addition. Previous restoration work was approved administratively. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project involves six parts: ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Repair and Alterations 1) Replace the non-historic front doors with 2-over-2 glazed doors. 2) Replace the metal roof with composition shingles with a wood-shake profile. 3) Paint the house to match the historic color (yellow). 4) Reconstruct the rear (south) wall after it was removed beyond the scope of approvals. The proposed new wall includes a 3-panel fully glazed sliding door and a window opening with a 2-over-2 window (sash material pending). 5) Construct a 4’3” deep concrete patio behind the rear (south) wall of the historic house. 6) Construct a 2-story rear addition. The addition is set back approximately 24’ from the front wall and has a footprint of 265 square feet. It is clad in horizontal hardiplank siding and capped by a front-gabled roof, with a slope and eave depth matching those of the historic house. Windows are sliding and fixed vinyl-sash. A garage on the ground floor is accessed by a glazed roll-up door on the rear (south) wall. One-story, L-plan, cross-gabled building; vertical board-and-batten siding; 4:4 wood-sash windows; shed porch with two entry doors; National Folk style. The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: General Standards 1.1 Do not remove intact historic material from the exterior of a building. 1.2 Always attempt repair first. Replacement should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary, and for the smallest area possible. 1.3 When historic material must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, replacement material should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. The proposed project repairs and retains historic wood siding, windows, and trim. Where replacement of boards or battens is necessary due to deterioration, replacements will match historic materials and profiles. The project meets these standards. 1.4 Do not attempt to re-create an architectural detail or element without proof that it existed on the building historically. The proposed project replaces plain wood porch posts with …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 2021-058680 PR HYDE PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 4006 1/2 AVENUE B B.7 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a two-story rear addition to a one-story contributing building. Replace existing windows and doors. 1) Partially demolish rear of residence. 2) Construct a two-story addition. The proposed addition is set back approximately 15’ from the front wall of the house. It has a compound gabled roof with shed dormers at secondary elevations. It is clad in horizontal wood siding. Single and paired 1:1 wood windows are regularly spaced throughout. The addition’s eaves feature exposed rafter tails and brackets to mimic existing. 3) Replace windows with 1:1s. ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The existing building is a one-story Craftsman bungalow with horizontal wood siding, 4:6 paired and single windows, a partial-width porch supported by tapered columns, and a gabled roof with exposed rafter tails and triangular knee braces at eaves. The Hyde Park Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.2: Retention of Historic Style. Respect the historic style of existing structures and retain their historic features, including character-defining elements and building scale. 1.3: Avoidance of False Historicism. Respect each contributing structure as an example of the architecture of its time. Do not make alterations that have no historic basis, such as the addition of gingerbread trim to a 1920s bungalow. Do not give an existing contributing structure a “historic” appearance it never had. 1.4: Appropriate Treatment Options for Contributing or Potentially Contributing Structures. Preserve the historic fabric: Repair deteriorated historic features and architectural elements. The proposed addition retains some aspects of the building’s historic style but changes its scale. It is differentiated in scale and placement but includes exposed rafter tails and triangular knee braces that may not be appropriate for new construction. The proposed cladding appears to match the existing building’s horizontal siding. However, existing historic-age windows will be replaced. 3.1: Front of Houses. Retain the historic facade of a house in terms of door and window placement and exterior wall materials. Repair damaged or deteriorated exterior wall materials where reasonably possible. If replacement of exterior wall materials is necessary, choose a material identical in size, profile, and appearance as the historic material. 3.2: Doors and Doorways. Do not enlarge, alter, or relocate single doorways on the façade of …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT WITHIN A NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-055590 WILLOW-SPENCE HISTORIC DISTRICT 902 WILLOW STREET C.1 - 1 Modify the west elevation of the existing contributing structure; demolish a deteriorated non- compatible rear addition and outbuildings; construct a 2.5-story ADU in the back yard. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes the demolition of a non-compatible, although possibly of historic age, deteriorated rear frame addition and small wooden outbuildings. The applicant further proposes the reconfiguration of the west elevation of the house, which faces onto an open lot adjacent to the north-bound service road for IH-35. The plans for this project show the removal of windows on this elevation and the installation of a horizontal fixed-sash window along the center of this elevation. The main focus of this proposal, however, is the construction of a 2.5-story ADU in back of the house. The proposed ADU will have a footprint of 668 square feet and a height of just over 26 feet; it will have stucco and hardi-plank siding, a composition shingle roof with metal roof accents, and multiple gables. Fenestration is a combination of vinyl and aluminum-clad wood windows. The ADU has a contemporary design but enough traditional features that make it compatible with the design of the turn of the century contributing house. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects in National Register historic districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 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. Reconfiguration of the fenestration pattern on the west elevation of the house will compromise the character-defining features of the contributing house. The proposal does not comply with this standard. 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 reconfiguration of the west elevation does not comply with this standard. 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 house at 1602 Westover Road was constructed in 1937. Its first occupants were John Franklin and Gertrude Hutter. Franklin Hutter worked for the University of Texas as director of the accounting division before becoming an auditor. Gertrude Hutter was an active member of the Austin Woman’s Club and Texas Federation of Women’s Clubs. By 1949, the Hutters had sold the property to Byron F. and Mildred D. Kerr. Byron Kerr, who began his career at Montgomery Ward, worked as a factory repair specialist and manufacturing representative. The Kerrs lived in the home with their two children until 1957, when ownership passed to Ruth Escamilla. Escamilla, a veteran employee of the Austin National Bank.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-064125 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 2518 HARRIS BOULEVARD C.5 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house and garage. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story, side-gabled stone veneer residence with partial-width, flat-roofed porch supported by boxed columns; three gabled dormers; and 6:6 wood windows. 2518 Harris Boulevard was constructed in 1937 for Judge F. L. Hawkins, who went on to head the state court of criminal appeals. The Hawkins family may have built the home as a rental property, as they do not appear to have been residents in Austin directories; by 1938, UT law professor Edward Crane and Donna Roberts Crane were renting the home. After his wife died in 1939, Professor Crane remained at 2518 Harris until 1941. Until the early 1950s, the house was occupied by short-term renters including an assistant state attorney general, a Texas Supreme Court justice, and an attorney. In 1952, oil company salesman Charles E. Derrick and his family had moved into the home, staying until at least 1957. STAFF COMMENTS The primary building contributes to the Old West Austin National Register Historic District. 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 criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building displays Colonial Revival and Texas vernacular influences. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations; while several prominent Austinites lived in the house, there were no long-term significant associations. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-066941 RAINEY STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 71 RAINEY STREET C.6 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1910-1924 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story, hipped-roof house with horizontal wood siding, 4:4 windows, and a double entryway with transom doors. The building’s original partial-width porch was removed around 2011. The house at 71 Rainey Street was constructed, or potentially moved to the site, around 1924. Its first occupants, the Spradlings, were renters; the family included a bricklayer, a furniture store owner, a salesman, and a mechanic. During the late 1920s and the 1930s, the building was home to at least two renting households at a time. By 1939, the Clendenann family had moved in. Lemuel and Eugene Clendennan worked as tankmen at the Texas Public Service Company, while Vida Mae Clendennan worked the press at the Stephen F. Austin Hotel’s laundry. By the mid-1940s, the Contreras family had purchased the house. Prudencio and Martina Gutierrez Contreras occupied the home from 1944 until their deaths in 1963 and 1970, respectively. Martina Gutierrez was born in Guanajuato in 1894. She married Prudencio Contreras, who had also emigrated from Mexico, and they purchased the house at 71 Rainey Street after moving to Austin from Lockhart. Prudencio Contreras, born in 1885, worked as a laborer. The Contreras’ son and daughter- in-law lived with them at first, but an accident in Wisconsin killed both Domingo Contreras and his wife, who worked as migrant farm laborers, in 1948. Prudencio and Martina’s living children—Julio, a Marine; Alberto, a trucker; Dolores; and Ana Maria, a laundress—also stayed in the house during the 1950s and 1960s. The Pardo family, Ana Maria Contreras Pardo’s in-laws, occupied in the other half of the house. Ana Maria and her husband, carpenter Santos Pardo, shared the space with her father-in-law until his death in the 1950s. Martina Contreras’ brother Selso Gutierrez and his family moved into the house in the early 1960s. The Contreras family owned the building until 2020. It was the last remaining residential-use home on Rainey Street. STAFF COMMENTS The building contributes to the Rainey Street National Register Historic District. The current application is solely for demolition due to life safety concerns. Per Land Development Code § 25-11-213 (J), review of new construction in a National Register district is not required prior to issuance of a demolition permit in cases where …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Install a non-illuminated, 5.95-square-foot aluminum blade sign at the building’s east elevation. 2) Install an externally illuminated 20.02-square-foot flush-mounted aluminum sign above the first-floor tenant entrance at the building’s east elevation. It is 2’-11” in height. 3) Install a non-illuminated 19.88-square-foot flush-mounted aluminum sign at the southeast corner of the building above a first-floor takeout window facing the intersection of Congress Avenue and E. 6th Street. It is 4’-5 ½” in height. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The City of Austin’s Historic Sign Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects in National Register Historic Districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 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. The proposed project includes three signs. Two are located on the same elevation, and one at the corner (facing the intersection). The maximum size for signs depends on the sign type. Projecting (blade) signs: 6 square feet. Flush-mounted signs: 7% of the overall façade area, with a maximum height of 2 feet and a maximum size of 20 square feet. Large commercial buildings (over 3 stories): Cumulative signage may not exceed 40 square feet per façade and must comply with a signage plan for the building. The proposed blade sign is about six square feet in area. The proposed flush-mounted signs are about 20 square feet in area per sign.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MAY 24, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0340 4714 ROWENA STREET D.1 - 1 PROPOSAL RESEARCH Demolish a turn of the 20th century house with ca. 1932 additions. ARCHITECTURE One-story, wing-and-gable plan stuccoed frame house with a partial-width inset porch featuring a segmental arched arcaded front wall; single 1:1 fenestration; second-story belvedere at the back of the house; metal roof. The house is associated with Jay J. and Elisabeth Hegman, who lived here from around1932 until 1948, when they moved to a historic landmark house at 720 E. 32nd Street. This house is clearly not a ca. 1932 house, but the rear addition appears to date from that time, and this older house was outside the city limits at the time of its construction; no known records exist to document its earlier history. Jay J. Hegman was born in 1883 in Galveston, and arrived in Austin in 1915 after operating a theater in Temple, Texas. He opened the “old” Queen Theater on Congress Avenue in 1916, then persuaded Major George W. Littlefield to build a new, larger theater in 1920, the “new” Queen, also on Congress Avenue. The Queen was the first theater in Austin solely dedicated to showing motion pictures; all the other theaters also featured stage shows. Hegman ran afoul of local authorities in the early 1920s for showing movies at the Queen on Sundays, in violation of Texas blue laws, which prohibited many businesses from operation on the Sabbath. He was fined for his violations, and in 1924, sold the Queen Theater, but appears to have embodied the rebellion in the 1920s against what was viewed by many as Puritanical rules, the most obvious of which was nationwide Prohibition. He then went to Galveston to operate the Grand Opera House there, before returning to Austin. There are indications that Hegman split his time between Galveston and Austin in the mid-1920s; the city directory of 1924 shows the Hegman family living on Crockett Street, and operating the Star and Crescent theaters. The 1927 directory is the first showing the Hegmans in this neighborhood. They opened the Ritz Theater on E. 6th Street in 1929, and revamped the theater to its current configuration in 1937. His son, Elmo W. Hegman, who grew up in this house on Rowena, started off as a projectionist in his parents’ theaters, and later became the manager of the family’s theater …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MAY 24, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-2021-062320 1601 CANTERBURY STREET D.10 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1908 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, side-gabled board-and-batten frame house with a Cumberland- style configuration of two front doors; full-width, independent frame porch on plain wood posts; non-historic replacement windows several rear additions. RESEARCH STAFF COMMENTS The house was built around 1908 and is remarkable for the long-term tenancies and ownership by a number of widows. Mrs. Mila Rhemann, who lived here from around 1923 until her death in 1961, was the longest resident here. She worked occasionally as a janitress, but her working-age children lived here for long periods of time as well. The house was listed as contributing to a potential local or National Register historic district but not as an individual landmark or National Register property in the East Austin Historic Resources Survey (2016). Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The house is an early 20th century board-and-batten house with a Cumberland style configuration that retains some integrity of form and style, but has had several modifications over the years, including what appears to be wholesale replacement of original siding on the west elevation as well as replacement windows. While the house reflects a disappearing style in Austin, there are many better examples remaining. b. Historical association. A widow owned and occupied this house for over 40 years during the historic period. There do not appear to be significant historical associations. 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 particular demographic group. e. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Encourage rehabilitation and adaptive re-use, then relocation over demolition, but release the permit upon completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package, consisting of photographs of all elevations, a dimensioned sketch plan, and a narrative history, for archiving at the Austin History Center. The house does …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 GF-21-066980 2708 SCENIC DRIVE D.11 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1952 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Two-story mid-century Modern house clad in vertical wood siding and stone veneer, with fixed and sliding aluminum full- height and clerestory windows, flat-roofed breezeways, a low-pitched side-gabled roofline, double-width stone chimneys, and balconies and skybridge with decorative metal handrails. The building’s multi-level design responds to the hillside topography of the site. The house at 2708 Scenic Drive was built for attorney Robert C. McGinnis, Sr. and his wife, philanthropist Ethel Clift McGinnis, in 1952 by noted Austin architect and University of Texas luminary Roland G. Roessner. During his time in the house, Robert McGinnis was president of the Bar Association, a member of the State Judicial Qualifications Commission, and an instructor at the University of Texas, where his father had previously served as dean of the School of Business Administration. Ethel Clift McGinnis devoted her life to promoting charitable causes. During her tenure at 2708 Scenic Drive, McGinnis directed the Pan-American Roundtable, the Volunteer Bureau of Austin, and the Austin International Hospitality Commission. As part of her work, McGinnis hosted dozens of events at her riverside homes, opening its doors to community members and visitors for regular galas, luncheons, and ceremonies. STAFF COMMENTS Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high to moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of Mid-century Modern/Contemporary architecture. It was designed by midcentury Austin architect Roland Gommel Roessner. b. Historical association. The property is associated with Ethel and Robert McGinnis. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Consider initiating historic zoning. Recommend rehabilitation and adaptive reuse over demolition, but should the Commission choose to release the …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 GF-21-067020 502 E. 42ND STREET D.12 – 1 PROPOSAL Partially demolish and construct an addition to a ca. 1925 house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Partially demolish side and rear of residence, one porch column, and garage wall. 2) Construct an addition to the east side of the existing building. The proposed addition is one story with a flat roof, cantilevered awning, undivided fixed windows, and stucco cladding. 3) Replace windows at the rear of the existing residence with single-hung 1:1 windows. 4) Add a skylight and roof extension at rear of existing building 5) Construct a plunge pool at rear. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story Craftsman bungalow with cross-gabled roof, exposed rafter tails, triangular knee braces, partial-width porch supported by tapered columns atop brick bases, horizontal wood siding, and 1:1 mulled and single wood windows. 502 East 42nd Street was built around 1925 for Joseph J. and Ethel B. Brown. J. J. Brown, a World War I veteran, moved to Austin in the early 1920s after working in Georgia as the president of the Cotton States Official Advisory Marketing Board and the state Commissioner of Agriculture. Brown was appointed assistant director of the Agricultural Education department of the Texas State Board of Education, then supervisor of the rehabilitation division. By the end of the 1930s, Brown had risen to director of the Vocational Rehabilitation Division of the T. E. A., a position he held until at least 1957. During his time as director, Brown advocated for increased state funding for disabled children’s education and expansion of the vocational rehabilitation program. His wife, Ethel Brown, was a musician who taught lessons at the family home and served as president of the Band Mothers’ Club at Austin High School. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects at potential historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.1 Locate additions to the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.2 Step back side additions from the front wall a distance that preserves the shape of the historic building from the primary street. 1.5 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the least possible invasive location and means. The proposed addition is located …

ARCHITECTURE This American Foursquare house with Prairie School stylistic influences was constructed ca. 1920. The two-story house has a low-pitched hipped roof with broad overhangs. The full-width, hipped-roof porch has a long, open span supported at the corners by large square columns. The second floor had recessed corners that been infilled and converted to interior space. Originally clad in stucco, much of the house has been covered with aluminum siding. Wood double-hung windows have multiple lights in the top sash or are 1:1 light. The front elevation has a central grouping of four 8:1 light windows on the second floor. The side elevation, facing Harwood Pl., has a projecting sleeping porch with 6:1 light windows below a central grouping of five 1:1 light windows on the second floor. RESEARCH Early owners of this ca. 1920 house were Elmer E. and Cora Young. E. E. Young was co-owner of an automotive dealership, Hart & Young, Willys-Knight and Overland Austin Agency; he later bought out his partner and continued operation under his name. He served as president of the local automobile dealers’ association.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 GF-21-064096 1202 PEREZ STREET D.14 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1952 stone house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story L-plan masonry house with arched Spanish Eclectic partial-width porch, 8:8 and 4:4 wood windows with iron grates, and a stone retaining wall. The house at 1202 Perez Street was constructed around 1952 by Armando and Anita Lopez. Armando Lopez, born in Floresville in 1913, was a construction worker and mason, and the multiple types of stonework on the property may be examples of his work. His wife, Hutto native Anita Berlanga Lopez, was an attendant and instructor at the Travis State School. Anita and Armando Lopez moved to Austin from San Antonio between 1935 and 1940; they owned the home at 1202 Perez Street until at least 1995. 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 criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building shows examples different masonry types prevalent at midcentury, designed and built by a professional mason. It displays Spanish Eclectic influences. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations, though the Commission should consider that it was occupied by Armando Lopez, the mason who ostensibly designed and installed the home’s exterior cladding and interior accent walls. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021 044092 2040 EAST CESAR CHAVEZ STREET D.2 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1926-27 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story National Folk residence clad in board-and-batten siding. It features a pyramidal hipped roof clad in corrugated metal, exposed rafter tails, an inset partial-width porch supported by boxed columns, and screened 1:1 windows. The house at 2040 East Cesar Chavez Street was constructed around 1927 by Christian and Charlotte Kofahl for their family. The Kofahls were both born in Oldsloe, Germany and settled in Austin in 1878; Christian Kofahl was a successful barber and operated several barbershops and ladies’ hair salons, including for the Driskill. Kofahl was an active member of the German Lutheran church, serving as one of the first elders of St. Martin’s Evangelical Lutheran Church; the organization’s first building of worship was constructed in 1885 on land donated by Christian Kofahl. Kofahl died in 1930, and his family vacated the home. From 1932 into the 1940s, the property became primarily a rental house, with short-term residents including electricians, mechanics, salesmen, and bookkeepers. During the 1940s, it was occupied by a serviceman, a firefighter, and a driver and their families. By 1954, Otis Roe lived in the home and operated his service station across the street at 2027 East Cesar Chavez Street. In 1957, Albert G. and Zelma Gonzales purchased the house; they sold it two years later to Rosa M. Gillian. STAFF COMMENTS The 2016 East Austin historic resource survey lists the property as eligible for local landmark designation and individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as contributing to a potential local historic district and contributing to a potential National Register Historic District. The survey lists architecture and historical associations as qualifying NRHP criteria.

From: Subject: Date: Kalan, Contreras, Kalan 2040 E Cesar Chavez - demolition permit application Wednesday, May 19, 2021 5:55:11 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** This demolition permit application is scheduled for the next historic review meeting on Monday, May 24. I will be out of town, so am unable to attend. I would like to explain the necessity for the demolition. The house is in disrepair and poses a liability and financial hazard if it remains. The owner's insurance company will no longer insure the property. Therefore, if anything happens to the property or a person on the property, the owner is at risk. She has tried to keep up with the home over the years but does not have the means to get it to an insurable state. The structure, including the floor and roof framing, is deteriorated beyond repair. It would need to be completely rebuilt. I've attached some pictures. I would like this information shared along with the pictures at the historical meeting. Please let me know if I need to send a formal letter. Thank you and have a great day. -- CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 SP-2021-065153; GF-2021-068010 FIRE STATION #3 201 W. 30TH ST. D.4 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Partially demolish a 1956 fire station and construct a new apparatus bay. 1) Demolish and replace the apparatus bay due to structural inadequacy. 2) Perform structural repairs to the remainder of the building. The weight of current fire trucks exceeds the design load of the suspended floor slab in the apparatus bay. Engineering studies have indicated that continuing to use the bay was overstressing the slab and, concerningly, that a misalignment of a truck could result in structural failure. As a result, the Austin Fire Department must currently park the vehicles outside. This structural issue has been deemed nonrepairable. Prior to a decision to replace the apparatus bay, the project team explored stabilization of the floor slab. A geotechnical report indicated that filling the cavity under the suspended slab with concrete would be inadvisable due to the shrink/swell potential of the soil paired moisture from the adjacent floodplain. The new apparatus bay will use brick of a similar but slightly darker color than the original and will maintain a strong horizontal emphasis at the roofline. The height and operation of the vehicle doors will not match the historic configuration based on modern functional requirements; rather than paired overhead doors, a taller, single door will open to the side. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Fire Station #3 has a utilitarian, modern design. It consists of two flat-roofed, rectangular volumes: a taller apparatus bay with two large overhead doors, and a longer and lower wing. Clad in brick, the building has a simple horizontal metal band at the parapet as the only articulation. The entry is marked by a metal canopy at the corner of the wing and apparatus bay. Windows have been replaced with commercial aluminum units. Fire Station #3 at 201 W. 30th St. opened on February 1, 1957. Per the Austin Fire Department Historical Highlights timeline at austintexas.gov/sites/default/files/files/ AFD_History_Final.pdf, “the new station cost an estimated $66,000. Station 3 replaced the old fire hall at 3002 Guadalupe St. that was built in 1906 and housed North Austin Hose Co. No. 6.” The station was designed by architect Roy L. Thomas and built by the Austin Construction Company. The fire station was identified as eligible for historic landmark designation on the basis of its architecture and historical associations in …
Summary of Reports Concerning the Apparatus Bay of City of Austin Fire Station No. 3 § § § § § § § § § § § Summary was prepared by Rob Robbins, RA, LEED AP – Studio Director, WestEast Design Group on April 18, 2021. § Mr. Robbins is not a registered structural engineer. § Items summarized are as follows: o Phase One – Structural Floor System Capacity Assessment – CTL Group – May 12, 2017 – (Page 2) o Phase Two – Feasibility Study – CTL Group – August 31, 2017 – (Page 36) o Letter of Recommendation – Karim Helmi, P.E. City Structural Engineer, CoA PWD – September 1, 2017 – (Page 108) o Geotechnical Report – Kleinfelder – October 24, 2018 (Page 110) The accompanying PDF has been edited to omit items exclusive to Fire Station 22 for reader convenience. All page numbers are based on the PDF, not what is referenced on the sheet. Total number of pages summarized is 164. Overall Summary § The current situation does not support the fire station’s need to safely park the trucks inside the apparatus bay. The option to repair the existing apparatus bay by means of removal and replacement of the slab poses excessive risks to the remainder of the structure. The option to fill the crawl space as a means of remediation has been eliminated due to the shrink/swell potential of the soil coupled with the moisture variations inherent in being within a floodplain. As a result of the three items above, the final recommendation from the City Structural Engineer was to demolish the existing apparatus bay and replace it. Available buildable area is not sufficient for the addition of a new apparatus bay without the demolition of the existing one due to the floodplain and setbacks. This is shown graphically in the PDF document entitled: FS No3 - Remaining Buildable Area Diagram. Phase One Summary § Study used ground penetrating radar (GPR), localized concrete removal, extracted concrete core samples, and visual observations. (Page 2) The garage structural floor system consisted of a monolithic cast-in-place reinforced concrete slab over pier-supported reinforced concrete beams. (Page 5) Cracks were observed in the top of the slab (Page 6) The underside of the slab was spalled at several locations. At several spalled areas, the reinforcing steel was exposed and was exposed and was visibly corroded/rusted. (Page 6) The floor slab …

The City of Austin (COA) requested that a repair design be developed to strengthen the existing floor systems. In order to properly identify repair requirements and a strengthening solution, a feasibility study was performed on the floor systems at each fire station garage (Phase 2). The following tasks were performed as part of Phase 2 for this project: • CTLGroup obtained additional core samples for compressive strength testing and carbonation depth testing. As discussed in our Phase 1 report, the purpose of the additional core sampling and subsequent compressive strength testing was to reduce the scatter of core strength data. This allows for more representative compressive strength values to be used in the structural analysis and subsequent repair design. Also as discussed in our Phase 1 report, carbonation could be an issue at Fire Station No. 3. The extent of carbonation will influence our repair recommendations and carbonation depth testing was performed to evaluate this condition. • The preliminary structural analysis performed during Phase 1 of this project …
City of Austin Fire Station No. 3 NUNA Executive Committee/Aldridge Place Historic District – Design Overview Presentation 3 May 2021 Context Location: 201 West 30th St Currently, all fire trucks are being parked outside the apparatus bay. Recent changes to the floodplain maps cause a significant portion of the building to be in the floodplain. Introduction Overview Construction completed on February 21, 1957 Architect: Roy Thomas Does not have any Landmark designations at present Adjacent to the Aldridge Place Historic District Building History Repairable Not Repairable Overview The building has suffered two types of structural damage: 1) General wear and tear based on age. (entire structure) 2) Overstressing of the foundation due to parking trucks that are heavier than the original design load. (apparatus bay only) Structural Damage Shore up and preserve Demolish and replace Overview For the areas that have just suffered age- related wear and tear, the intent is to shore up that portion of the structure and preserve it. For the apparatus bay, the intent is to demolish the portion of the building that is beyond repair and replace it with a new structure that is sensitive but of its time. Project Intent Structural The City of Austin has conducted three studies of the building. Two structural studies and one geotechnical report. The second structural study specifically addressed potential remediation of the existing structure. All reports have been independently reviewed by the current structural engineer, who concurs with the studies’ methodologies and conclusions. Studies Historic An historic survey of the area was conducted. This building was identified in the survey. Recommendations for landmark were included. Reasoning: Possesses integrity and significance in Postwar Infrastructure Expansion. Survey Objectives 1) Save the historic fabric that can be saved and put it in good structural standing for the future. 2) Preserve the original historic use/function of the building. 3) Provide the Fire Department and EMS with the modern facility they need to operate effectively and efficiently for decades to come thus providing vital life-safety services to the area. 4) Get the fire trucks parked indoors for protection of the equipment, speed of response times, and aesthetic improvement of the neighborhood. 5) Create an addition that is respectful of the original, but not a false recreation of mindless mimicry. Project Goals What we asking for from the neighborhood 1) Input to help the design team fully understand the concerns of all stakeholders. …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 GF-21-060237 2100 CHICON STREET D.6 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1930 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story bungalow with exposed rafter tails, partial-width porch, shingle-clad gabled roof, screened 1:1 windows, and horizontal wood and stone siding. The house at 2100 Chicon Street was constructed around 1930 for Leon and Mattie Ligon. Leon Ira Ligon was a butcher and grocer who operated a store at 1116 E. 12th Street, later 1224 E. 12th Street. In his later years, Ligon worked as a meat cutter for Checker Front grocery stores. He was a longtime member of the American Legion, and both Leon and Mattie Ligon were members of the Baptist church. After they purchased the house, the Ligons spent the rest of their lives there: after Leon passed in 1959, Mattie Ligon remained in the home until her own death later that year. STAFF COMMENTS The 2016 East Austin Historic Resource survey recommends the building as contributing to a potential local historic district and to a potential National Register historic district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building does not appear to convey architectural significance. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 PR-2021-051493 1709 WILLOW STREET D.7 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1924 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story rectangular-plan, hipped-roof frame cottage with a partial-width inset porch with plain, square wood posts; single and double 1:1 fenestration with incompatible gingerbread-trimmed wooden screens. From the time of its construction until around 1924, this house was a rental property, with tenants including a barber, a carpenter, and a farmer with his beauty operator wife. Around 1934, the house was purchased by Annie Hudson, a Scottish born widow who worked at Austin Laundry and Dry Cleaning for many years. Although the city directories of the period and the Sanborn map of 1935 indicate a shift in addresses, staff believes that Annie Hudson lived next door at 1707 Willow before moving into this house, where she lived until the mid-1940s. Following Mrs. Hudson’s occupancy, the house was owned and occupied by Cleveland and Kathryn McMahan, who lived here until around 1956. Cleveland McMahan was a plumber. The house then became a rental property until the mid-1960s, when Sebastian and Ernestina Martinez, who were still living here in the early 1990s. Sebastian Martinez worked at the city water treatment plant. STAFF COMMENTS The 2016 East Austin Historic Resource survey recommends the building as contributing to a potential local historic district and to a potential National Register historic district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain a high degree of integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building does not appear to convey architectural significance. It is a common vernacular type in this neighborhood, which renders it potentially contributing to a future historic district, but not as an individual landmark. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations. It was the home c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human to several working class families. history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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 particular demographic group. e.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS MAY 24, 2021 PR-2021-049619 307 E. 2ND STREET D.8 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Relocate a house of uncertain age to 1200 Paul Teresa Saldana Street in East Austin. One-story L-plan frame house with single and double 4:4 windows; a partial-width shed-roofed independent porch on turned wood posts; asbestos siding; ornamental bracketwork in the tympanum of the projecting front gable. The house currently at 307 E. 2nd Street was moved on to the site from an unknown location around 1928 by Leonard and Vida East , who lived here for the rest of their lives. They had previously lived at other addresses in the same neighborhood, which had been an upper middle class neighborhood for many years before it began to decline with the conversion of many of the large, old houses into boarding houses and small hotels. At one time, Andrew Zilker, the prominent local ice merchant, lived at the west end of this block. Leonard and Vida East appear to have moved this house into the neighborhood around 1928 from an unknown location. It was one of the more modest houses in the neighborhood, but appears to have been fairly closely aligned with the other houses in the area in terms of age. Leonard East came to Austin from Lampasas in 1913 and established a wagon yard near the north end of the Congress Avenue bridge in the 100 block of Colorado Street. His wagon yard soon became one of the largest in Austin, and East began to expand his business to include the purchase of agricultural products, such as chickens, turkeys, ducks, guinea hens, hides, eggs, pecans, and other produce that local farmers would offer for trade. East also had an extensive ranch and raised cattle for resale at his Austin stores. Soon, East began to focus his business on buying local produce from area farmers for sale in Austin. For many years, East advertised in the local newspapers that he would buy local poultry, pecans, eggs, and other items. He began selling poultry to local restaurants and hotels, as well as opening a store, at first at his wagon yard location between 1st and 2nd streets on Colorado Street, then to a larger location at 8th Street and East Avenue (now IH-35). His businesses were very prominent in Austin, providing fresh produce, meats, eggs, and poultry to Austin citizens, …
Mitchell had two young daughters, both of whom had been born in Texas: Vida Lucille, 11; and Juanita, L., 9. His 1942 World War II draft registration card shows that Leonard East as living at this address. aff ordable housing, training for empowerment and life skills, and a supportive community to achieve life goals. Intracorp has developed the images and programming association with the relocation in concert with the Jeremiah Program. History The Leonard and Vida East house is currently located at 307 E. 2nd Street in the Central Business District of downtown Austin. Research by the City of Austin Historic Preservation Offi ce House states that the house was likely relocated to this lot ca. 1928 from an unknown location. The 1935 Sanborn Map depicts structure as a wood frame house with no synthetic siding, while the 1961 Sanborn Map indicates that the house has asbestos siding. The addi- tion at the rear of the house is not original (hence the asbestos siding) and was added at an undetermined time sometime prior to 1961. The architecture of the house exhibits many of the characteristics of the craftsman-style bungalows built and popularized in the early 1900s, however with a notably steeper roof pitch. Also of note is the front corner porch topped with a low-slope shed roof. The most prominent feature of this house, however, is the decorative bargeboard on the front and side facing gables. Each with a slightly diff erent design suggesting they have been modifi ed at some point. Additionally, most of the windows are adorned with crown molding caps. Over- all, the exterior is in fair condition for a structure of this age, but it is in need of repair. The asbestos siding has chipped off in many locations and portions of the wood trim are rotten. The interior of the house is in signifi cant disrepair as well and is in need of rehabilitation. Leonard East was born in 1883 and moved to Austin in 1913, when he founded East Poultry company. Leonard and Vida East appear in the 1910 U.S. Census of Burnet County, Texas, where they rented a farm. Leonard East was 25, had been born in Texas, and was a general farmer. Vida East was 24, had been born in Texas, and had no occupation listed. They had a son, Alvin G., 3; and a daughter, Altha, almost 2. The household also …
D.9 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MAY 24, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-2021-055337 2807 BONNIE ROAD PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house with a ca. 1985 two-story addition. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, hipped-roof stone veneered frame house with a projecting front- gabled street elevation containing a round-arched inset entry portico and two 1:1 windows with decorative wooden screens and a prominent attic vent; large one- and two story stucco non-historic addition to the rear right of the original structure. RESEARCH The house was built during the winter of 1936-37 by a local contractor who built a number of stone cottages in West Austin. The first owners and occupants were Bob and Ethel Dalton, who lived here from around 1937 until around 1948. Bob Dalton was a retail clothing salesman for a tailoring company out of Cincinnati, Ohio. He later opened a custom tailor shop in Austin; his wife Ethel was the co-owner of the business. After the Daltons moved to a house on Meadowbrook Drive in 1948, this house was purchased by Alton K. (Bill) and Marguerite Jarrell, who lived here at least through 1959. Bill Jarrell was in the home insulation business. STAFF COMMENTS The house is beyond the bounds of any City survey to date. Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The original part of this house is a stone 1930s cottage, which was a style prevalent in this Tarrytown neighborhood, but which is rapidly disappearing. The original part of this house is intact, and could qualify for landmark designation under the architectural criterion, but the structure was added onto in the 1980s, according to city building permit records, significantly compromising its integrity. b. Historical association. The house had two owners during the majority of the historic period; the first was a clothing salesman who later established a custom tailor shop in Austin; the second was the owner of an insulation company; there do not appear to be significant historical associations. 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 original house was a stone cottage dating to the late 1930s, and is characteristic of the early phases of construction in Tarrytown, but …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Residential Additions Location The addition is set back approximately 27’ from the front wall and has a footprint of 331 square feet. It is clad in 12” horizontal hardiplank siding, with 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows. The addition is capped by a combination side-gabled and hipped roof, with a shallow flat roof over the entry; the hipped roof’s slope matches that of the historic house. Metal stairs on the primary (north) wall access a paneled, partially-glazed door. One-story, modified L-plan building capped by a combination pyramidal and flat roof, with horizontal wood siding, wood- sash windows, gabled dormers, a corner porch, and interior chimneys. The building is designed in the Queen Anne style. The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate proposed changes to historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the project: 1.1 Locate additions to the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. The proposed addition is located at the side of the historic building, 27’ back from the front wall. The project meets this standard. 1.5 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the least possible invasive location and means. The proposed addition is connected to the side of the existing building behind a projecting bay. The short section of wall includes a window opening. The project meets this standard. 1.6 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Staff believes that the proposed addition is compatible with and differentiated from the historic building. Scale, Massing, and Height 2.1 Design an addition to complement the scale and massing of the historic building, including height. The addition must appear subordinate to the historic building. The proposed addition is one story high, with a ridgeline that is the same height as the adjacent side gable and substantially lower than the principal ridgeline of the historic house. The addition’s plan and massing echo the L-plan and roof shape of the principal house and its gable ends. The project meets this standard. 2.2 Minimize the appearance of the addition from the street faced …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-063882 ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT 810 LYDIA STREET B.9 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a 1-story accessory dwelling unit (ADU). PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project is a 1-story ADU clad in horizontal hardiplank siding and capped by a cross-gabled roof covered in asphalt shingles. Features include fixed and single-hung 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows and a fully glazed front door with a bracketed gabled hood. The ADU has a footprint of just over 1,000 square feet. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: New construction shall have the same street orientation and distance from adjacent buildings as the contributing buildings in the same block. The building is located behind the principal building and oriented towards the alley. The project meets this standard. Setbacks for new construction shall be consistent with setbacks of the district’s contributing buildings. The building’s setback is similar to other secondary buildings in the district. The project meets this standard. Design new buildings so that they are compatible with and differentiated from historic buildings in the district. The building’s scale, massing, design, and materials are compatible with nearby historic buildings. Elements such as the roof form, gable-end bargeboards, and 1-over-1 window configuration are notable for their simplicity and compatibility. The project meets this standard. New construction should have floor-to-floor heights and roof heights that are the same or similar to those on contributing buildings throughout the district. The building’s roof height of 18.5’ matches the roof height of the principal building on the property. The project meets this standard. Select materials for new construction that are the same as or similar to those found on contributing buildings existing in the district. The building uses horizontal hardiplank siding compatible with horizontal wood siding found on contributing buildings. Vinyl-sash windows are not typically found on contributing buildings, but the ADU’s location at the rear of the property minimizes the windows’ visibility. The project partly meets this standard. The project generally meets the standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the plans.

There’s so much circumstantial evidence that I wish added up to a clear narrative supporting individual significance. The house is cool and unusual, but I’m struggling to come up with a clear argument that would convince the NPS staff of its individual significance. The archival record is incomplete and hard to reconcile with what we see today. I’m confident that the core house dates to the first decade of the 20th century at the latest. It was modified at some point with the application of stucco and the pop-up roof, and I don’t think these changes would prevent it from contributing to a district. The association with Hegman is sketchy, and even if it could be proven to have been his residence at some point, he lived in other houses as well. Is the house is significant under Criterion B for association with Hegman as a theater owner? The theaters themselves (the Ritz in particular) better represent this aspect of his productive life. Is it significant for its association with Hegman as the developer of a subdivision? I would think the house at 108 E. 48th Street, where he also lived at some point, seems like a better fit. I don’t understand why he would leave the 2-story brick house on a large lot in the heart of his subdivision for a older house immediately to the west. It doesn’t add up. I think the best shot would be Criterion C in the area of architecture, as a modified turn-of-the-century house (I’ll call it Queen Anne Cottage). The key to this argument would be to detail when and by whom the changes were made, AND argue that these changes themselves are architecturally significant. This case would be more easily made if the alterations were of a type that reflected changes in popular taste - we’ve done this in nominations where a house is substantially updated to reflect an entirely new style (often Beaux Arts after the Columbian expo, or an old plantation style perhaps popularized by Gone With the Wind). That’s not the case here, and we can only guess at …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS – REVISED STAFF REPORT MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-063830 1113 E. 9TH STREET ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT B.8 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a 1-story side addition to a contributing building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The addition is set back approximately 27’ from the front wall and has a footprint of 331 square feet. It is clad in 12” horizontal hardiplank siding, with 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows. The addition is capped by a combination side-gabled and hipped roof, with a shallow flat roof over the entry; the hipped roof’s slope matches that of the historic house. Metal stairs on the primary (north) wall access a paneled, partially-glazed door. ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW One-story, modified L-plan building capped by a combination pyramidal and flat roof, with horizontal wood siding, wood- sash windows, gabled dormers, a corner porch, and interior chimneys. The building is designed in the Queen Anne style. The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate proposed changes to contributing buildings. The following standards apply to the project: 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. If designing an addition in a contemporary style, reflect the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building; if designing an addition in a style that reflects the style of the historic building, differentiate the scale, massing, and/or materials, at least slightly. The proposed addition’s scale, massing, and materials are compatible with and differentiated from the historic building. Its simple style reflects the style of the historic building but will not be mistaken for original construction. The project meets this standard. Design new additions that are subordinate to and do not overpower the historic building. The proposed addition is subordinate to the historic building in terms of scale, massing, and location. 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. Set back a new ground-level addition a minimum of 15 feet measured from the front wall of the building (excluding the porch). The new addition is attached to the side wall and set back 27’ from the front wall. The project meets this standard. Modern materials such as fiber-cement siding are appropriate for …

I didn’t want to fill your in-box with 11 emails. Thank you. Olivia Dear Historical Land Commission Member: Once again, a buyer buys into our Historical District and wants to building a monstrosity modern duplex. I am requesting that you respect the NRHD designation by denying the request to build new homes on the lot. I do not see any compelling reason to tear it down — it is stylishly remodeled both inside and out. Although, I do not appreciate the modern front windows. I bought a house in Clarksville because I want to maintain its historical character. By granting the developer’s request, you contribute to the minimization of the original Black landowners by worked so hard to build these historical houses. I hope and request that you vote against this change and show the original Black owners that their contribution to Austin continues to be appreciated. Thank you. Olivia Ruiz Olivia B.

Paula Kothmann Preservation Chair, SRCC Historic Landmark Commission May 24, 2021 Preservation is better for the environment than demolition. Why don’t investors preserve rather than demolish? One of the biggest reasons that real estate investor seek to demolish their properties is because the property taxes are much too high for the income they can hope to get in residential rentals of older properties. Much more awareness of tax benefits may help stop some of the demolitions. San Antonio, for example, helps train property owners to apply for tax benefits when they preserve certain historic properties. Austin is supposed to be green! Demolition wastes a lot of energy and materials. Property taxes significantly increase holding costs. Recommendation: the property owner should endeavor to lower his taxes by: 1) Protesting his appraised values for the past two years 2) Requesting an income appraisal like that given to the nearby businesses w/ SF3 zoning. a. Why are residential rentals treated as commercial for tax appraisals? b. Why do residents pay such a higher price/sf than businesses? 3) Seeking tax credits for historic preservation because he is in a historic district and will be using the property commercially a. What is the cost to preserve vs rebuild if the owner no longer has to pay City and/or State taxes for 5-10 years? b. How quickly would he be able to get rental income if he preserved vs demolished? The subject property at 71 Rainey is grossly overvalued compared to nearby sites.
