HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-1555-42 BRASS-MILAM HOUSE 1409 NEWNING 11.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolition and new construction of entryway door and surround. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Entryway fabrication to include non-original door replacement, transom repair, and side light alteration ARCHITECTURE & RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS 1409 Newning was designated a local historic landmark in February 1992. 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. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project proposes to demolish and rebuild the historic main façade entry assembly. This approach would not only destroy the original historic design and fabric but the new design creates a sense of false historicism. 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 materials should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. 1.4 Do not attempt to re-create an architectural detail or element without proof that it existed on the building historically. Documentation can be physical (traces on the building), written (such as building plans), or photographic. 5. Windows, doors and screens If the door is non-original it should be replaced with a new unit based on documentation of the historic door or a new design compatible with the historic opening. The same approach should be taken with the windows in the door assembly. Repairing rather than replacing the transom is appropriate. 5.1 Repair, rather than replace, historic windows, doors, and screens; and their trim, surrounds, sidelights, transoms, and shutters, unless they are deteriorated beyond the point of stabilization or restoration. Retain windows if 50% or more of the wood or metal sash members are intact. a. Using modern material in repairs and patches is a possibility if the material has proven appropriate and stable in similar uses. 5.3 If historic windows must be replaced, match the size and details of the existing window, including configuration, profile, and finish. Take into account elements such as frames, sashes, muntins, sills, heads, moldings, surrounds, hardware, and shutters. 5.5 Do …

13– 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR- 2022-156160 W. B. SMITH BUILDING 316 CONGRESS AVENUE PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a new tower addition to the W. B. Smith Building and adjacent historic age buildings. 1.Stabilize & preserve north & east (street facing) wall 2. Deconstruct & reconstruct portions of the south wall 3. Demolish the west (alley) wall. 4. Build a new tower construction setback 20’ from the historic façade. ARCHITECTURE The W. B. Smith building (316-318 Congress Avenue) was zoned a local landmark in 1982; Joseph Hume may have built it in 1883. W. B. Smith, a dry goods merchant, bought the property in 1884, and the family retained ownership until 1917. An Austin Up to Date, 1894 article describes W.B. Smith, dry goods as “a well-known old and important established business house of this City.” 1 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: DESIGN STANDARDS Commercial additions 1. Location An addition should preserve the character of the historic building and site. Visual subordinance to and compatibility with the historic building can be achieved through location, scale, massing, design, and materials. 1.1 Locate additions at the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.2 Set back additions from the front wall at a distance that preserves the perceived massing of the historic building, considering the pedestrian view from the opposite side of the primary street. a. Additions must be set back at least 20’ from the front wall of the historic building. 1.3 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the most noninvasive location and methods. 1.4 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The addition is located at the property’s rear and initially setback 20 feet from the historic façade. However, there is a significant or total loss of fabric in all other locations, including the rear and side walls. 2. Scale, massing, and height 2.1 Design the addition to complement the scale and massing of the historic building. 2.2 Design the addition to appear subordinate to the historic building. 2.3 Minimize the appearance of the addition from the primary street(s). …

16 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-146276 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1506 W. 32ND STREET PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Demolish a ca. 1938 house and detached garage and replace with new construction. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing house and detached garage. 2) Construct new residence. The proposed new building is two stories in height, oriented with the garage fronting on 32nd Street. It is composed of four hipped-roof rectangular masses, connected by hyphens. It is clad in unpainted cedar and stone, with fenestration comprising mostly fixed and undivided windows of various dimensions with regular rhythm at secondary façades. One-story Minimal Traditional house with cross-gabled roof, boxed cornice returns, arched front door, and brick veneer cladding. Replacement windows are 1:1. The house at 1506 W. 32nd Street, listed in City directories as 1508 W. 32nd Street, was constructed in 1938 for Jack Underwood and his family. Underwood, who worked as a salesman before serving in the Army during World War II, sold the house to William and Lillian Chenault in the late 1940s. Chenault worked as a farmer, and his two grown daughters, Polly and Sadie, lived at home while they worked and went to school. Around 1950, Ernest E. and Helen Hawkins purchased the property. Ernest Hawkins was a sales manager at Jack Stableford Pontiac. 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 in National Register districts.

Historic Review Proposed Work Narrative 1506 W 32nd St We propose to build a new residence for a young family with generational roots in the Bryker Woods Neighborhood. The existing structures on the property are in disrepair and have been modified over time, presumably without permit and without regard to historical design standards. Little stewardship of the natural landscape has been undertaken and the site is in severe degradation from neglect. Our proposal is considerate of trees, topography, natural light, material, texture, scale, setbacks, development guidelines, soil conditions, efficiency and economy. The site contains Del Rio clay, arguably the most expansive clay in our area, dictating a pier supported foundation. The discreet rectangular forms allow for an economical layout and a limited required quantity of piers. These discreet forms are linked by simple bridge connections. The severe slope of the site, a desire to limit hardscape/ impervious cover and a Garage Placement overlay have positioned the garage at the front of the property while also providing the necessary width for side‐loaded garage access. The discreet forms step down along the descending natural grade to remain rooted into the site. To comply with the Visitability Ordinance, the entry to the house occurs at the mid‐point of the linear footprint, connecting to a centrally located stair with rooms radiating from the central stair core providing efficient circulation. The siting of the house is organized along a central spine allowing for generous natural buffer zones between the flanking properties, further diminishing the scale of the house at the street and providing spaces ripe for rich and textured landscaping. The forms, shapes, materials and finishes are free from particular stylistic reference, concerned more with a simple and composed elegance through careful and thoughtful detailing. The fundamental construction techniques present in the design can be traced back to a rich architectural history of pragmatism.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152876 OLD WEST AUSTIN 2512 WOOLDRIDGE DRIVE 17 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1937 contributing house and detached garage and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a two-story masonry house with attached carport. The proposed house’s fenestration includes divided-light windows and arched doorways. A one-story mass, connected via carport, extends diagonally from the house’s main two- story form. Two-story asymmetrical Tudor Revival house clad in stucco with faux half-timbering at gable ends and covered entryway. The house at 2512 Wooldridge Drive was constructed for Annie Beasley in 1937. Early residents included a rancher and his family and a University of Texas professor. The house’s longest-term occupants in the early and mid-twentieth century were Janice and Vernon McGee. Janice McGee, a violinist, was a charter member of the Austin Symphony and served on a screening committee for symphony hopefuls. Vernon McGee began his career as a Capitol reporter but later became the first executive director of the Texas State Employment Commission. McGee was later appointed staff director of the Texas State Legislative Budget Board, where he served until the late 1960s. He then worked as an administrative chief of staff under Governor Preston Smith. DESIGN STANDARDS 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 in National Register districts.mThe following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building appears to be appropriately sited and set back. 2. Orientation The proposed building’s orientation is consistent with the design standards. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s scale and height appears appropriate. While the diagonal massing of the one-story portion of the house is not in keeping with the surrounding district, it does not appear highly visible from the street. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s proportions, design, and style appear to somewhat reflect those of the surrounding district. 6. Roofs The proposed cross-gabled roof at the house’s main mass is compatible; while the flat-roofed porch and shed dormers are less so, they appear to help break up the monolithic massing at the two-story portion of the house. 7. Exterior walls The proposed masonry is mostly compatible with the surrounding district, though brick or stucco would be a more appropriate cladding choice. 8. Windows …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-144178; GF-2022-154608 WEST LINE 1006 EASON STREET 18 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1928 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story side-gabled house with a central, partial-width gabled porch with deep eaves, supported by Classical columns. The house is clad in wood siding and has 1:1 paired vinyl replacement windows. 1006 Eason Street was built around 1928 for Hyden A. and Anna Albert and their family. Hyden Albert, Sr., worked as a carpenter. His wife, Anna E., remained in the home after his death in 1951, living there until at least 1959. Anna Albert served multiple terms as vice-president and president of the Business and Professional Women’s Club during the 1960s. Two of their sons, John and Victor, became Naval and Air Force pilots, while H. A. Albert Jr. became a polygraph operator. PROPERTY EVALUATION The main house contributes to the West Line National Register 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. STAFF RECOMMENDATION New construction in National Register districts requires Historic Landmark Commission review prior to demolition permit release.

19 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152804 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 201 PARK LANE PROPOSAL Construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new building is a two-story house clad in masonry with vertical siding accents. It has a roughly trapezoidal plan, conforming to the lot shape. Its irregular roof is clad in standing-seam metal, with a large dormer at the rear elevation. Fenestration includes fixed undivided windows throughout and fully glazed entry doors. The existing building was approved for demolition in 2022. DESIGN STANDARDS 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building appears to be located appropriately on the triangular lot. 2. Orientation The proposed building’s orientation is compatible, with the carport and drive opening onto the secondary street. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s height is somewhat incompatible with nearby one-story contributing buildings. Its massing and scale appear more monolithic than nearby contributing buildings. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s irregular proportions are not compatible with the surrounding district. 5. Design and style The proposed design and style is consistent throughout; however, it does not reflect the character of the district. 6. Roofs The proposed irregular roofline is not consistent with rooflines of contributing properties in the district. While the large dormer appears overwhelming, it does not appear visible from the primary street frontage. 7. Exterior walls The proposed masonry and vertical siding are somewhat incompatible with the surrounding district. 8. Windows and doors Proposed irregular, undivided windows are not compatible with the district. 11. Attached garages and carports The proposed carport appears compatible, and its location at the secondary street frontage is consistent with other properties in the district. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Modify roofline and fenestration to be more in keeping with the neighborhood. Add more fenestration and use fewer masonry elements, taking cues from the surrounding contributing buildings (e.g., lap siding, shingle roofing, gabled or hipped roofline). Do not use a shed roof on the dormer, though the dormer position at the rear of the building is favorable. Reconsider vertical siding, as it appears to overwhelm the building form in renderings. …

20 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152879 WILLOW-SPENCE 1020 SPENCE STREET PROPOSAL Partially demolish and construct an addition to the rear side of a ca. 1912 contributing building. Construct a garage apartment at rear of lot. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construct a rear addition two-story addition to the existing one-story house. The addition is connected to the main house by a glass hyphen. It is clad in stack bond brick, stucco, and vertical wood siding. The roofline is mostly flat and clad in TPO, save for a small section of standing-seam metal shed roofing. Fenestration is mostly fixed, undivided, and vertically oriented. 2) Construct a two-story detached garage apartment with alley access at the rear of the lot. Proposed finishes and roofline appear to match the new addition. 3) Replace siding, windows, and roof and move the front door at the main house. Construct an accessible ramp and handrail to the front porch. The proposed window and door replacements modify original openings and window configurations. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story National Folk house with pyramidal hipped roof, board-and-batten siding, and inset partial-width porch supported by turned posts. Fenestration includes double entry doors and 1:1 wood windows. The 1985 Willow-Spence National Register Historic District nomination describes the house as “a one-story, board-and-batten cottage with a hipped roof and corner porch. Many architectural details are intact, including a Victorian comer-porch column. New elements include a cement foundation, steps, and porch floor.”1 The house at 1020 Spence was constructed around 1912 as a rental property. Its architectural details share many similarities with “Hofheinz houses,” distinctive National Folk houses rented out in East Austin to working-class families during the early years of the twentieth century by Edmund and Oscar Hofheinz. From the East Austin Context Statement (East Austin Historic Resource Survey), Vol. 1, p. I-40: The first two decades of the 1900s were rampant with development throughout the East Austin survey area …residential construction in these new developments reflected evolving trends in domestic designs, as the eclectic tastes of the Victorian era waned and simpler styles and detailing became more widespread. Among the poor and working classes, new house types began to replace more traditional forms. The linear, one‐room‐deep plans that featured gabled roofs…gave way to a new generation of houses with deeper, more box‐like plans and often had hipped or pyramidal roofs with inset porches. The effect …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-155521 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK 1907 KENWOOD AVENUE 21 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolition of an existing quadplex and new construction of a duplex. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Total demolition of a circa 1947 duplex that has been converted to a quadplex, a contributing structure to the Travis Heights National Register District. 2) New construction of an interior split-level, two-story duplex using brick, stucco, and clear sealed wood. ARCHITECTURE The structure is circa 1947 Contemporary Style brick and tile quadruplex with a flat roof. The structure is built into the hillside, initially with garage space down, like a walk-out basement plan. The Contemporary Style house typically could be built on steep hillsides where Ranches and even Split-levels would be challenging to place. The house appears to be a single story from the street, but downhill reveals a two-story structure. The fenestration seems to be original 4:5 metal frame casement windows, with a slightly recessed central entry on the front façade. The second street-level unit is accessed via a side entry door. The rear façade reveals a partial width upper and lower balcony with rear stairs for accessing the rear-facing living units. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS The property first appears in the 1949 Citywide directory as rented by Marvis and Bess Bell, with Mr. Bell’s occupation listed as a “salesman.” It was followed by several other renters, such as Robert E. Rips and Nina Brewer, whose occupations were not listed. The interior was repaired and remodeled in 1960. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project seeks to demolish a historic building that provides four living units and replace it with compatible new construction which will only offer two living units. Repair and rehabilitation are always recommended over demolition. Furthermore, historic housing stock is more affordable than new construction, and the project proposes demolishing four existing housing units. The replacement will be two new construction units, which will likely be less affordable than those it replaces. Residential new construction 1. Location The new construction project is sited appropriately from the street and in keeping with the rhythm of other contributing structures. 2. Orientation The project …

22 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION /PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-155536 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 1407 ALTA VISTA AVENUE PROPOSAL Remodel a ca. 1932 duplex to convert it to single-family use. Demolish a detached garage and construct a new garage apartment in its place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Convert duplex to single-family use. Change roofline, remove double entryways and gables, replace siding, replace windows, replace doors, replace porch. Materials include painted aluminum roofing, fiber cement siding, metal windows with wood casing and trim, and painted metal railing. 2) Demo existing garage and build new detached garage apartment. The proposed garage apartment is one and one-half stories in height, with a shed roof and fixed undivided windows. A full-height vertical screen structure accents horizontal fiber cement siding, and a round window appears at the west elevation above a concrete and wood retaining wall. A metal fence to match the main house’s porch guardrail surrounds the garage. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Two-story Tudor Revival duplex with symmetrical plan, wood siding, and decorative steeply pitched entry gables with ornamental bargeboards, friezes, and brackets. The duplex at 1407 Alta Vista was constructed around 1932 as a rental property for Mrs. John L. Smith. Residents were mostly short-term, and included military servicemen, University of Texas students, clerks, state government employees, and hospital employees. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed alterations remove the remaining character-defining features of the house. 3. Roofs The proposed alterations do not retain the historic roof configuration, pitch, eave detailing, decorative elements, or design. 4. Exterior walls and trim The proposed replacement siding appears appropriate. 5. Windows, doors, and screens The proposed window replacements further exacerbate the loss of material from the 2013 remodel. They do not match the size and details of the original windows in historic photographs and further alter openings. 6. Porches Though a historic photograph indicates that separate angled stairwells were original to the duplex, there is no precedent for a single angled stairwell leading to a centered entryway; the design does not appear to successfully convey its intended sympathy for the building’s historic form. Residential new construction 1. Location and 2. Orientation …

ARCHITECTURE 2212 E. Windsor is a two-story masonry residential construction with a flat roof and symmetrical façade with central, recessed entry. The home was modified with replacement windows, doors, significant first and second-story additions, and a balcony circa 2004. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Initial research into historical associations includes Paul Bolton, an Austin news commentator and politician circa 1946 who lived at the property. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project seeks to demolish and construct a new front entryway as well as demolish a rear portion of a side wall. City- wide Design Guidelines encourage repair over replacement. However, the property appears to have been significantly altered and, therefore, would no longer qualify for historic landmarking due to a lack of historic integrity. 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 materials should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. 1.5 When demolishing additions or features that were built after the building’s period of significance, minimize damage to the building. a. Stabilize and repair building walls that are exposed when non-historic additions or features are removed. b. Avoid demolition that removes historic structural systems or compromises the structural integrity of a historic building. 4. Exterior walls and trim Exterior walls should be repaired rather than replaced to minimize …

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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.1 Locate additions at the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.2 Set back additions from the front wall at a distance that preserves the perceived massing of the historic building, considering the pedestrian view from the opposite side of the primary street. a. Additions must be set back at least 20’ from the front wall of the historic building. 1.3 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the most noninvasive location and methods. 1.4 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The addition is located at the rear of the property and is setback initially 15 feet from the historic façade, which the proposed project deconstructs and reconstructs. However, there is a total loss of fabric in all other locations, including the rear and side walls. 2.

Historic (H) zoning is a zoning overlay which is added to the base zoning and does not change the base zoning itself. To qualify for City Historic Landmark status, a property must meet the local historic designation criteria outlined in Land Development Code Section 25-2-352. The City Historic Landmark Commission reviews all applications for City Historic Landmark designation, with the Austin City Council making final decisions on these designations. Once designated, all proposed exterior site and building changes (other than routine maintenance) to a historically zoned tract require advance review and approval by the City Historic Landmark Commission.

PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH 28 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 GF-2022-138179 1800 GUADALUPE STREET Demolish a ca. 1923 apartment building and detached garage. Three-story Colonial Revival-Federalist Style building composed of painted brick on the central portion of the building, wood siding on the side additions, and stucco on the front and rear porch overhangs. Hip-gabled metal seam roof with two chimneys, five dormers on the front of the building, four dormers on the rear, and a single dormer on each side of the building above small rooftop decks. 6:6 wood windows throughout except for 4, 12:12 windows on the front of the building, and a classic Palladian window with a simple masonry arch over the main entry with fanlight and sidelight. The building located at 1800 Guadalupe St was constructed as an apartment building sometime around 1923. The apartments were referred to as the Carmen Apartments from 1924-1959, per city directory research. Sisters Alice and Eunice Carman, daughters of Robert Clarke and Alice Carman, built the apartments for an estimated $18,000, according to a 1923 article. Alice Carman lived in and owned the building from 1952 until her death in 1962. It is remarkable that the property was built by two women in 1923. It was just shortly earlier in 1900 that every state had passed legislation granting married women the right to keep their own wages and to own property in their own name. The legal right of women to own and manage property is equal to men today, but full financial autonomy for women didn’t come about until late in the 20th century. It wasn’t until the mid-1970s that a woman could access a line of credit independently without a man to cosign her application. Ten years later, the courts ruled that a husband doesn’t have the right to unilaterally take out a second mortgage on property held jointly with his wife. Despite legal protections for property rights, women still struggle against a real estate gender gap. Research points out that women spend an average of two percent more than men to purchase a home and get two percent less return on their investment when reselling, a significant obstacle to economic parity that has yet to be overcome, and such inequalities may help explain part of the overall gender gap in wealth accumulation.1 Despite such inequalities, the Carman sisters built 1800 Guadalupe …

It features a central portico with steep central gable supported by oversized triangular brackets. A decorative vent and simple carved frieze ornament the gable end, and decorative screens obscure the windows. 1106 W. Monroe Street was constructed in 1937 by developer N. A. Dawson. Its first owners were mechanic Leo Barbo and his wife Myrtle. Ownership passed to electrician William B. Crouch and Cherry Crouch in the late 1940s. By the 1950s, laborer Felipe Gonzales and his family occupied the home. Son Guadalupe Gonzales, a military fireman, served about aircraft carriers during the 1960s and 1970s.1 The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood survey lists the property as a medium priority. 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 is a good example of prewar Tudor Revival architecture. 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.

ARCHITECTURE One-story stone veneer house with side-gabled replacement metal roof, partial-width front porch, exposed rafter tails, and 6:6 wood windows. RESEARCH 2102 Bowman Avenue was constructed by and for Thomas A. G. Graham, secretary-treasurer of the Enfield Realty & Home Building Company and founding member of Graham-Lundgren & Company, an insurance agency. Graham was a grandson of Governor Pease and a son of R. Niles Graham, founder of Enfield Realty, who constructed the Enfield, Westfield, Westenfield, and Tarrytown neighborhoods.1 2102 Bowman Avenue’s vernacular limestone styling is similar to company president Margaret Graham Crusemann’s Tarrytown dwelling, approved for demolition in 2022.2 According to a 2014 staff report by Historic Preservation Officer Steve Sadowsky, “Tom Graham was a book-keeper and accountant for the Enfield Realty and Home Building Company; he later became more active in the real estate aspect of the family businesses, and eventually branched out into insurance with other family members, forming the Enfield Agency, all located in offices at the Tarrytown Shopping Center on Exposition Boulevard.”3 In addition to his businesses around Austin, Graham served on the City Planning Board, and later on the school board after selling the home in the early 1950s.4 The Grahams’ later home at 2500 Galewood Place was approved for demolition in 2014.5 During the 1950s, the home was occupied by Margaret J. Harris, an elementary and high school teacher. PROPERTY EVALUATION 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 constructed in a vernacular style favored by the Tarrytown branch of the Crusemann and Graham families, who developed the area. b. Historical association. The property is associated with the developers of the Tarrytown area, with Thomas A. G. Graham as secretary-treasurer of the Enfield Realty and Home Building Company. However, his aunt Margaret Graham Crusemann, who served as president of the company, was more immediately associated with development in Austin. Margaret Graham Crusemann’s similar home at 2505 Indian Trail was approved for demolition in September 2022. Thomas A. G. and Mary Graham’s later home …

The 2016 Bouldin Creek historic resource survey identifies the property as a Craftsman bungalow with wood siding. Its compound gabled roof, covered with corrugated metal, shelters a partial-width projecting porch, and triangular brackets are present at gable ends. Windows are wood and feature 3:1 wood screens. RESEARCH The house at 1313 Newton Street was built for Nora Eck as a rental property around 1927. Eck, who resided at 107 W. James Street1 and for whom the subdivision was named, constructed other rentals in the neighborhood as well, including 1303, 1309, and 1311 Newton Street.2 3 4 The home’s earliest occupants were Carl and Ada Putnam, though Ada Putnam moved shortly after her husband’s untimely death in 1932. The house was occupied by a series of short-term renters until Nora Eck’s 1944 death, when its ownership passed to Maude H. Spencer and her son, Glen. Maude Spencer owned and operated a Red and White store for a short time, then worked as a seamstress. Captain Glen W. Spencer, an Air Force pilot, served in World War II after becoming an instructor and civilian pilot for the Browning Aerial Service. Spencer was the first student to graduate from a Civil Aeronautics Authority training program at Austin High School in 1940.5 PROPERTY EVALUATION The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Survey lists the property as a medium priority and a contributing property to a potential historic district.

It has a cross-gabled roof and partial-width porch supported by boxed columns. The house is 1.5 stories in height and features a basement-level front-facing garage. Windows include 1:1 wood and painted 6-light casements. 801 Bouldin Avenue, historically addressed as 803 Bouldin Avenue, was constructed around 1947 for Dale and Lula Elsner. After Lula Elsner’s death that same year,1 the home was sold to Joe M. and Cathryne Franklin, who moved from Galveston to work in state education.2 Joe Franklin was a supervisor at the State Education Agency, while Cathryne Franklin worked as a librarian and served with the Texas Association of School Librarians.3 By 1959, the home’s primary occupants were Malcom Thurgood and his family. Thurgood, a noted local artist, worked out of the home until around 1962, when he moved his studio to Wimberley. Thurgood was well-known as an instructor, as well as for his illustrations of frontier Texas life for the University of Texas Press, Von Boeckmann-Jones, and other local publishers.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-142458 DART BOWL 5700 GROVER 37.0 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Total demolition of the commercial structure most recently known as “Dart Bowl.” Single-story commercial building of stucco and metal construction with a porte-cochere at the full-glazed automatic door front entrance. The project site plan also indicates the demolition of a small residential structure that appears to be addressed as 5610 Roosevelt Avenue. 5610 Roosevelt Avenue does not require HLC review. 5700 Grover was home to Austin’s iconic 32-lane Bowling Alley, Dart Bowl. Originally located at Anderson and Burnet, Dart Bowl was moved to this location in 1997. Dart Bowl closed in July 2020 due to the pandemic after 62 years of business in Austin. The Dart Bowl was founded in 1958 by current co-owners’ (John Donovan and wife, Jacy) grandfather Harry Peterson, who was joined in partnership ten years later by Jerry and Betty Ray, who, along with her son, remain involved in ownership and management of the company’s remaining two Austin bowling alleys-Highland and Westgate Lanes.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 PR-2022-145835; GF-2022-154626 4402 RAMSEY AVENUE 38 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1936 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story house with asbestos siding, a cross-gabled catslide roof, an arched entryway to a covered stoop, shallow eaves, and 1:1 wood windows. The house at 4402 Ramsey Avenue was built in 1936 for Captain Truman G. and Gladys Holladay. Truman Holladay, an accountant and veteran, served as deputy state treasurer and chief clerk of the Texas Treasury Department while living in the home. In 1947, the Holladays moved briefly to San Saba, where they were part owners of a pecan shelling plant, though Holladay also served as assistant state auditor. By 1957, he was appointed as the deputy State Securities Commissioner. He was promoted to Commissioner in 1969, and served until his retirement in 1972, though the Securities Board members voted unanimously against his leaving the post. After the Holladays’ departure, the home belonged briefly to Zue Gibbons, a secretary, and then passed to Cora Elam, a widow. PROPERTY EVALUATION 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 is a good example of a Tudor Revival-styled Minimal Traditional house, characteristic of Austin’s development during the 1930s and into the 1940s. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations, though the Commission may wish to consider the service of Truman Holladay as the Texas State Securities Commissioner. 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 Encourage rehabilitation and adaptive reuse, then relocation over demolition, but release the demolition permit upon completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-122453 HEIERMAN BUILDING 115 E. 5TH ST. 5.0-1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Alterations, demolition, and new construction of an addition to the existing 3-story commercial structure. 1) Demolish existing storefront assemblies; create a new custom storefront with metal framing and sill with new windows 2) Remove the front façade side lites and salvage entry door; create a new recessed entry with the salvaged door. 3) Remove the egress door and demolish brick infill on front façade 4) Windows are to be removed and replaced; existing openings are to remain 5) New rooftop steel frame construction with curtain wall glazing setback 20’ from the front facade. 6) Partial demolition of rear courtyard walls, all windows, roof enclosure, and structure. 7) Construct and install new curtain wall windows with divided lights, exterior balcony, blackened metal panel cladding, and enclosed area on level 1 in the rear courtyard. ARCHITECTURE The Heierman Building was zoned Historic in 1977. It was contracted for construction circa February 1887 by Tom Smith, Sr., with materials from M. Paggi and Joseph Nalle as the builder. It is a 3-story brick building believed to have been built initially as a commercial enterprise. Three walls were made of brick and one (west wall) of stone. It opened as the Provident Hotel circa 1890 and continued to operate as a hotel until 1923 (under various names). The family that ran it the longest was the Heiermans during its first 87 years hence the landmark name. Evidence suggests that the Hotel Provident had ten guest rooms on both the second and third floors. Rooms were single or suites and supplied with gas and electricity; closets and free bathrooms were provided on each floor. The rooms likely surrounded a central hall, and at least two rooms on each floor had a fireplace with a coal grate. Research suggests the upper floor may have been converted to support the weight of a machine shop in the 1920s, and lower first-floor walls were cut through to accommodate an automobile shop and showroom. A restoration was completed in 1974. The original façade was a symmetrical 6-bay Victorian storefront in front of a masonry structure. The original roof was metal with raised seams. DESIGN STANDARDS The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-060641 HELENA AND ROBERT ZILLER HOUSE 800 EDGECLIFF TERRACE 6 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a pool house behind the existing detached garage apartment. Replace siding on garage apartment. 1) The proposed new pool building is two stories in height, clad in stucco textured to match the historic main house. Its roofline is flat with Spanish Colonial detailing at the parapet. Fenestration includes full-height arched divided-light windows atop matching glazed doors, interspersed with fixed divided vertical windows; arched entry and exit doors provide secondary egress. Gas sconces accent each archway at the main elevation, and glazed doors are flanked by balustrades matching the historic main house. 2) Replace non-original siding on existing historic-age garage with stucco to match historic-age stucco. DESIGN STANDARDS 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building is in line with the existing garage. It appears to be minimally visible from the primary street due to grade. 2. Orientation The proposed building is oriented similarly to the adjacent detached garage apartment. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is taller than the adjacent garage in height, but shorter than the historic house; grade changes appear to mitigate its height somewhat. Massing is rectangular and, though monolithic, is similar to the monolithic massing at the main house. The landing railing and offset parapet step-downs provide some gradation in height at the main elevation, though secondary elevations display few height transitions. While the proposed new accessory building is not visually subordinate to the existing garage, its position on the lot and distance from the main house make it appear subordinate to the primary building in height, massing, and form; neither appears visible from the main street. 4. Proportions Proportions appear somewhat compatible with the historic main house; the building’s use is a limiting factor. 5. Design and style The proposed design and style has been amended per Committee feedback to better respond to the historic main house. 6. Roofs The proposed roofline has been amended per Committee feedback to better respond to the historic main house; it appears mostly compatible. 7. Exterior walls The proposed stucco cladding …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152852 HYDE PARK 4308 DUVAL STREET 9 – 1 Construct a two-story rear addition to a contributing house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Siding to match existing structure. New standing seam metal roof. PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STANDARDS One-story Craftsman bungalow with 1:1 wood windows, a cross-gabled roof with central partial-width porch supported by boxed columns atop brick piers, and a shingle roof with exposed rafter tails. The Hyde Park Historic District Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 4. Residential Standards: Additions to Contributing Single Family and Multi-Family Structures 4.1: Preservation of Historic Character. Construct additions so as to require the removal or modification of a minimum of historic fabric. Do not construct additions which will require the removal of any portion of the front façade. Design additions to existing residential buildings to reflect the form and style of the existing house. The proposed addition is constructed at the rear of the house and appears to require the removal of minimal historic fabric. It somewhat reflects the form and style of the house with the exceptions of the steep roof pitch and projecting third-floor cupola. 4.2: Location. Locate new additions and alterations to the rear or rear side of the building so that they will be less visible from the street. See 4.1. 4.3: Roof, Fenestration, and Siding. Make the pitch and height of the roof of the addition compatible to that of the existing house. Make windows visible from the street on any addition compatible with those on the existing house in terms of sash configuration, proportion, spacing and placement. Use exterior siding materials on the addition which match or are compatible with that of the existing house. The proposed addition’s side-gabled roof form is appropriate, but its steep pitch and flat-roofed projection do not meet the standards. The proposed siding appears appropriate, while the proposed undivided casement windows of varying proportions do not. 4.4 Size and Scale of Additions. Design additions to have the same floor-to-ceiling height as the existing house. Locate second story additions at least 15’ back from the front house wall. Design additions so that they do not overwhelm the original building. The proposed addition is set back beyond the original rear wall of the house. While most of the addition does not appear …
