HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 4, 2024 HR-2024-148278 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1702 WEST 30TH STREET 10.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a single-family house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS DESIGN STANDARDS Build a detached house on a lot in the Old West Austin National Register district. The previous house on this lot, which was non-contributing to the district, was approved this year. The proposed house is two-stories, with a front and side gabled main roof and a two-car garage facing the street. 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: Residential new construction 1. Location Proposed footprint of the house is within the required setback, and in line with other houses on the block and neighborhood. Houses on this street do not typically have one uniform wall depth along the front elevation, which is also the case in this design. No secondary structures are proposed at the sides or rear of the property. 2. Orientation The main orientation of the house towards the street, which is the case on all other properties on the block and typical of the overall district. 3. Scale, massing, and height When combined with the required setback at the property, the scale of this new construction does not visually overtake its neighbors. Though the two-story height is uncommon on this block (though still present at multiple properties), the design uses a step-back, in which a one-story section projects further forward than the two-story section. 4. Proportions The proportions of the design are generally similar to the surrounding contributing properties. Similar two-story designs have been constructed on the same block, where non-contributing or vacant lots were previously present. 5. Design and style No historic style is being emulated in this proposed design, and it sufficiently differentiated. Materials such as horizontal wood siding and brick are present in the district, but the rhythm and spacing at this house read as modern without becoming overbearing. The modern design is also uniform across the building without any section standing out visually. 6. Roofs Front-and-side gable roof patterns are present throughout the district, which this design utilizes and sets at an appropriate pitch. Metal roofs may not have been original to many of the houses …

11.0 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 4, 2024 HR-2024-150669 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1505 WEST 32ND STREET PROPOSAL Construct two additions and a rear housing unit. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish the front porch and entryway, along with the left wall. 2) Construct a new entryway and office at front center of building. 3) Construct a new addition left side, projecting in front and behind the original footprint. 4) Construct a second, two-story dwelling unit at rear of property. ARCHITECTURE The current appearance of the property is largely unornamented. There is a front porch, elevated three steps above grade and supported by four wood posts, that covers the front entry. To the right of this is a moderately sized window that appears to be a replacement. Apart from two small windows to the left of the porch, this is all the fenestration that appears on the street-facing elevation. The roof is side-gabled and set at a moderate pitch. The overall shape of the house appears to have not been altered, retaining its overall elongated rectangular plan. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Built around 1940, this house was owned for at least 20 years by Major & Rubie Harwood. Major Harwood worked in several government roles during this time, including at the WPA, the IRS, and the Texas Department of Agriculture. 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: Residential additions 1. Location The additions are proposed at the front entry and at the left of the building, both of which project forward from the existing footprint. This would greatly alter the visual appearance of the house, as detailed in Standard 1.1 and 1.2. 2. Scale, massing, and height Both additions are matching in height to the original building. While not deferential in size, they are also not larger in scale than the original. However, the building’s shape would be significantly altered when viewed from the street. 3. Design and style Due to the simple and straightforward appearance of the original building, the additions can match the style of the majority of the house well. However, the front addition does this while destroying the front porch, which is the section of the street- facing …

13 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 HR-2024-150523 WEST LINE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1101 WEST LYNN STREET PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Remove and replace existing ramp. Partially demolish and construct new door opening. Construct portion of new development at rear. 1) Remove existing ADA ramp at north elevation and construct accessible entrance at south elevation. 2) Partially demolish the south elevation to construct a new door opening. 3) Construct part of mixed-use development behind the existing building. The proposed mixed-use structure is 5 stories in height, with a flat roof, horizontally oriented full-height windows, transparent screening, a roof deck, and stucco cladding. See HR-2024-150514 for details. One-story wing-and-gable house with partial-width front porch, replacement picture windows, horizontal fiber-cement siding, and classical cornice returns at gable end. The house currently at 1101 West Lynn Street was originally constructed around 1903 a few blocks away at 1009 W. 11th Street. Its first residents were the Voss family, who lived in multiple residences on W. 11th. Dietrich Voss owned a saloon on Congress Avenue, and William Voss worked for his uncle, Herman H. Voss, who owned a housewares store on Congress. By 1912, the Vosses had sold the house to Thomas H. Barrow, a real estate broker and investment company owner, and his large family. During the early 1920s, Barrow sold the property to gastroenterologist Dr. Dalton Richardson, who remained in the home for only a few years. The house was a rental property without long-term occupants for several years before it was purchased by Mary Gordon Zanders and moved to its current location. Zanders lived there with her son, Buford Buckley, who worked as a clerk for the IRS. She opened and operated a beauty shop there until her death in 1969. 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 to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project mostly alters portions of the building that have been changed over the years, notably the front porch. 3. Roofs The proposed project removes the non-original shed roof over the front porch. 5. Windows, doors, and screens The proposed project does not significantly alter the existing non-original window pattern, replacing windows with similar non-compatible …

14 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 4, 2024 HR-2024-150514 WEST LINE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1113-1115 WEST LYNN STREET PROPOSAL Partially demolish and remodel existing building, reconstructing the west façade and constructing a new mixed-use development. Preserve existing Daniel Johnston mural in place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing building, except for the mural and brick wall at the north elevation. Stabilize and preserve existing mural and brick wall, using steel supports and a temporary slab to anchor it in place while the new building is constructed around it. 2) Reconstruct deteriorated west (front) elevation with in-kind materials and fenestration, including canopy. 3) Construct a new mixed-use building with commercial frontage on West Lynn Street and residential frontage on Eason Street. The proposed mixed-use structure is 5 stories in height, with a flat roof, horizontally oriented full-height windows, transparent screening, a roof deck, and stucco cladding. The new building wraps the existing house at 1101 West Lynn Street, with outdoor seating terraces unifying the two structures. 4) Add street trees and low-profile planters in place of existing parking lots. Retain existing historic-age signage. ARCHITECTURE The existing building includes a one-story, horizontally oriented two-unit store with plate-glass windows, masonry veneer, and a flat canopy with curved supports; and a two-story attached dry cleaner with painted stone cladding and no fenestration at the primary street frontage but a long horizontal bank of multilight steel casement windows at the secondary façade. RESEARCH The building at 1113-1115 West Lynn Street was constructed in 1950 by Anthony and Alice Colanetta, replacing an older store building that had housed a drugstore named Enfield Rite-Way. The Colanettas opened Anthony’s Laundry and Cleaners in one half of the building and leased the other half to Hilton and Eleanor Nau in 1951. There, the Naus opened Nau’s Enfield Drug and soda fountain, and the businesses operated side-by-side for the rest of the century. According to a 2021 history by former Historic Preservation Officer Elizabeth Brummett, the Nau family owned several drugstores in Austin: Historically, multiple drug stores bore the Nau name, most owned by Hilton’s older brother Ladner. Ladner Nau came to Austin in 1926 to go to pharmacy school at the University of Texas. After working at a drug store for a couple of years, he and the proprietor of that store opened the Community Drug Store at 1201 E. 1st (Cesar …

15 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 PR-2024-043035; GF-2024-058054 1702 EAST MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. BOULEVARD PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1916 house and 1942 rear house. ARCHITECTURE One-story National Folk house with pyramidal hipped roof, board-and-batten siding, and inset partial-width porch supported by turned posts. Fenestration includes 1:1 and 4:1 wood windows; one of the original double entry doors has been converted to a window. Two decorative jigsawn brackets remain and two chimneys are present. The back house is a gabled, one-story building with horizontal wood siding and a partial width inset porch. RESEARCH The front house at 1702 East Martin Luther King was constructed around 1916 as a rental property. Its architectural detailing marks it as an example of National Folk houses rented to working-class East Austin families during the early years of the twentieth century by Edmund and Oscar Hofheinz. According to a 2019 Historic Preservation Office report, 11 known and 13 possible houses of this style and original use remain within the East Austin Historic Resource Survey area,1 though several have since been demolished. The East Austin Context Statement notes their impact on development patterns: The first two decades of the 1900s were rampant with development throughout East Austin…residential construction in these new developments reflected evolving trends in domestic designs, as the eclectic tastes of the Victorian era waned and simpler styles…became more widespread…new [working-class] house types began to replace more traditional forms. The linear, one‐ room‐deep plans that featured gabled roofs…gave way to deeper, more box‐like plans and often had hipped or pyramidal roofs with inset porches. The effect created a more vertical emphasis. The rental houses of brothers Edmund (“E. J.”) Hofheinz and Oscar (“O. G.”) Hofheinz exemplified this trend. E. J. Hofheinz (ca. 1870–1949) was a real estate dealer and accountant, while O.G. Hofheinz (ca. 1880–1957) was an insurance salesman and developer. Together, the brothers subdivided land and built houses in East Austin and Clarksville. Real estate transaction articles in the Austin American Statesman indicate that the Hofheinz brothers both speculatively sold the houses that they built and retained them for rental income.2 Though the Hofheinz brothers rented some of their properties to tenants of color, their purchase of smaller lots and homes made property ownership even more difficult for East Austin residents. Even if African American homebuyers could secure a loan large enough to purchase a lot—a …

June 5, 2024 City of Austin Historic Preservation Board To whom it may concern, I am writing to express my strong support for Aisha Gooden-Williams and her family in their request to demolish structures on their property. As a scholar of the African American experience, particularly in Austin, I believe that denying this family the right to manage their property as they see fit, including demolition, would be an affront to the liberties that African Americans have fought tirelessly to secure. The legacy of African Americans in this country is deeply intertwined with issues of property and ownership. Historically, Black people were reduced to property through race-based chattel enslavement, bought, sold, and disposed of at the whims of others. Today, denying a Black family the autonomy to decide the fate of their property echoes these past injustices. The properties in question hold significant historical value. They are not just buildings but symbols of resilience and progress. My grandfather’s sister, Mrs. Winifred Hill Gooden, labored as a domestic worker in the Hoffenhiez residence for decades. As a Black woman born in the early 20th century to tenant farmers in rural Travis and Caldwell Counties, domestic work was one of the few employment opportunities available to her. Through her hard work, she was able to acquire many homes that the Hoffenhiez family reserved for “Colored” renters in the former Negro District of East Austin. This acquisition was a defining moment for Black property ownership in the area, representing a significant step toward economic empowerment for working-class Black families. I recognize and appreciate the City of Austin’s efforts, particularly through the Equity Preservation Plan, to address historical racial injustices. Preserving the histories, experiences, and contributions of African Americans and other marginalized communities is vital. Through my work with Black Austin Tours, I strive to fill the gaps in public consciousness and support programmatic efforts to this end. However, historic preservation should not solely focus on “preserving” the past. It must also consider financial and generational wealth. Equitable historic preservation involves educating and directing resources to historically excluded communities, empowering them to make decisions about their properties. If the Gooden family chooses to demolish a property to benefit from community development, they should be able to do so without impediment. The City of Austin should support their efforts to continue their family’s legacy of property ownership and economic progress. Moreover, this situation presents a …

June 10, 2024 City of Austin Historic Preservation Office Housing & Planning Department P.O. Box 1088 Austin, TX 78767 To whom it may concern, I am writing to wholeheartedly endorse Mrs. Aisha Gooden-Williams and her family's impassioned appeal to safeguard the residential dwellings on their ancestral property. As a resident of Austin, born and raised, it is important to recognize the importance of preserving the rights that African Americans have worked tirelessly to achieve. It would be unjust if this family were denied the chance to exercise their property rights, including the freedom to demolish their property. Appreciating and respecting the rich historical legacy of the African American community that flourished in Central East Austin is crucial. In accordance with its 1928 plan, the City of Austin implemented measures that mandated Black residents to reside within a designated 6-square mile zone, thereby endorsing segregationist policies. This district served as the residence for Black residents, businesses, schools, and churches, and it played a crucial role in influencing the lively heritage and cultural contributions of Austin's African American community. In order to preserve the respected legacy, set forth by the Gooden family in accordance with the 1928 plan, it is of utmost importance that these properties remain undisturbed. This will greatly contribute to the preservation of the past and the development of the future of The District, encompassing the properties owned by the Gooden family. Furthermore, the Gooden properties in question possess significant historical significance. These structures are not merely physical buildings; they serve as powerful symbols of resilience and progress. Sincerely, Shameika N. Brown-Smith

From: To: Subject: Date: City of Austin Historic Preservation Office 1704 e mlk Wednesday, June 5, 2024 7:33:00 AM This message is from Jennie Davidowitz. [ ] Hi there, I know there is a hearing on these properties tonight. I could not figure out what the approving or dissenting was in regards to, but I do not approve of these 2 properties being historically preserved due to the condition of the buildings currently and no interest in upkeep from the owners. The buildings are rotting away and racoons and cats have taken ownership of the homes.

16 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 PR-2024-043844; GF-2024-058061 1704 EAST MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. BOULEVARD PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1916 house and ca. 1942 rear house. ARCHITECTURE One-story L-plan National Folk house with hipped roof, board-and-batten siding, and partial-width front porch supported by turned posts. Fenestration includes 2:2 wood windows; one of the original double entry doors has been converted to a window. The back house is a gabled, one-story building with horizontal wood siding and a partial width inset porch. RESEARCH The front house at 1704 East Martin Luther King, originally addressed as 1304 East 19th Street, was constructed around 1916 as rental property. Its architectural detailing marks it as an example of National Folk houses rented to working-class East Austin families during the early years of the twentieth century by Edmund and Oscar Hofheinz. According to a 2019 Historic Preservation Office report, 11 known and 13 possible houses of this style and original use remain within the East Austin Historic Resource Survey area,1 though several have since been demolished. The East Austin Context Statement notes their impact on development patterns: The first two decades of the 1900s were rampant with development throughout East Austin…residential construction in these new developments reflected evolving trends in domestic designs, as the eclectic tastes of the Victorian era waned and simpler styles…became more widespread…new [working-class] house types began to replace more traditional forms. The linear, one‐ room‐deep plans that featured gabled roofs…gave way to deeper, more box‐like plans and often had hipped or pyramidal roofs with inset porches. The effect created a more vertical emphasis. The rental houses of brothers Edmund (“E. J.”) Hofheinz and Oscar (“O. G.”) Hofheinz exemplified this trend. E. J. Hofheinz (ca. 1870–1949) was a real estate dealer and accountant, while O.G. Hofheinz (ca. 1880–1957) was an insurance salesman and developer. Together, the brothers subdivided land and built houses in East Austin and Clarksville. Real estate transaction articles in the Austin American Statesman indicate that the Hofheinz brothers both speculatively sold the houses that they built and retained them for rental income.2 Though the Hofheinz brothers rented some of their properties to tenants of color, their purchase of smaller lots and homes made property ownership even more difficult for East Austin residents. Even if African American homebuyers could secure a loan large enough to purchase a lot—a difficult feat in the era …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Bertron, Cara Contreras, Kalan; Lukes, Austin Fahnestock, Sam FW: Seeking Your Guidance on COA Historic Commission Issue - Hofheinz Homes vs. Gooden Family Legacy Monday, June 17, 2024 11:58:03 AM Hi y’all, I’m late on following up on this request from Javier Wallace of Black Austin Tours. It looks like he attended ARC last week. …So y’all may have already heard Javier’s point about Black stewardship of the Hofheinz homes—a cool and important addition to the historical record. It’s not clear how that relates to the family’s demolition request. Cara From: Javier Wallace < Sent: Friday, June 7, 2024 3:23 PM To: Bertron, Cara <Cara.Bertron@austintexas.gov> Subject: Seeking Your Guidance on COA Historic Commission Issue - Hofheinz Homes vs. Gooden Family Legacy > You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Good Afternoon Cara, I hope this email finds you well. Sarah Marshall suggested I reach out to you. I am reaching out because my cousin, Aisha Gooden-Williams, called me about some issues she's having with the COA Historic Commission and the demolition of some structures on a property they own. The homes are located on East MLK and she said her permits for demolition have been denied due to the historic nature of structures, specifically as it relates to them being "Hofheinz homes." I was wondering if you had any insights, ideas, or strategies they could use in their case? I think it's important to note the history of the homes and persons that are much larger than them being "Hofheinz homes." My grandfather's sister, Mrs. Winifred Hill Gooden, labored as a domestic for the Hofheinz family for decades. Upon the death of Mrs. Hofheinz, my aunt inherited all of their rental properties in East Austin, designated for Black renters. Since, the Gooden family has been the steward of those properties and have kept longtime East Austin families in homes. I mention that, as I think it's sorely omitted from the historical narrative currently presented about "Hofheinz homes" in East Austin. Currently, when I read some of the rationale to preserve the homes, it's centered on the Hofheinz family and the architectural design of the structures. I think we should consider more than the traditional elements of historic preservation, which I know the Equity Based Plan is trying to address. I am happy to connect you …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 PR-2024-138522; GF-2024-142858 800 WEST JOHANNA STREET 17.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a house and rear shed. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a ca. 1929 craftsman house. ARCHITECTURE The property at 800 West Johanna Street is a single-story wood residence. The roof is a front-facing gable with a smaller gable projecting towards the street, which covers the front porch. This porch extends about halfway across the front elevation, and the smaller gable roof is supported by two simple wood posts. Both gable ends have attic vents, with the main house gable’s being much larger. The house is clad on all sides with teardrop siding, and exposed rafter tails are visible on the roof eaves. At the rear of the building is an attached utility room that fits within the exterior walls and has a doorway to the backyard. The house is set on pier-and-beam foundation and is raised about two steps off the ground. Overall, the building appears to be in stable condition, with no obvious leaning or sagging at the foundation, roof, and walls. RESEARCH Built sometime around 1930, the property was first owned by Clifford & Alice Barr, though there is little detail known about their occupation or history. A man named W.T. Clark is also reported to have lived at the address in the mid-1930s and was a victim of a robbery at the property, but little else is known about him, as well. In 1940 or slightly before, the house was purchased by Emil & Eva Burke. Emil was a local carpenter and Eva worked as a nurse, first at a local doctor’s office, before moving to Brackenridge Hospital and, later, becoming a head nurse there. PROPERTY EVALUATION The 2015 Bouldin Creek Survey lists the property as a medium priority and within the proposed James E. Bouldin Addition 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 is a good example of craftsman style and bungalow/cottage form. 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 …

18 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 DA-2024-088952; GF-2024-147530 8401 HATHAWAY DRIVE PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolish a ca. 1961 school and associated outbuildings. A 1960 Statesman article describes architect J. Roy White’s design for Burnet Middle School, then Lanier Junior High School, in detail: The sprawling, modern school will contain 49 teaching stations…on a 25-acre site, properly oriented for adequate cross- ventilation in all areas. A feature of the plan involves the gymnasium stage which can be viewed from [the] interior…or from a large outdoor courtyard…classroom areas can be locked off making it accessible for school and community use at night. An off-street driveway…allows students to be discharged under covered passageways…the administrative office is centrally located with the cafeteria and gymnasium on one side and three classroom wings on the other. These parallel wings are connected by covered walkways which create four courtyards. The first of the classroom wings is two-storied…the design of the school is contemporary with the exterior red face brick with aluminum windows and doors…The sloping, gabled roof was designed to give the school a homelike feeling, blending with the residential neighborhood.1 RESEARCH As Austin’s postwar population swelled and suburban neighborhoods crept northwards during the mid-twentieth century, new schools were required for the next generation of Northwest Austinites. This demographic and development change ushered in a new wave of Modern designs by innovative architects taking advantage of new technologies and design sensibilities, often on sprawling new campuses. David G. Burnet Junior High School, originally Sidney Lanier Junior High School, was designed by noted Austin architect J. Roy White during his tenure at Kuehne, Brooks, and Barr (later Brooks, Barr, Graeber, and White). Cottingham and Hale Engineers completed the structural design, and B. L. McGee was the general contractor. The school was contracted by AISD in 1960 and was initially intended to house both junior and senior high school students until a larger school could be built to relieve crowded McCallum High. When Lanier High School, designed by Fehr and Granger, was completed in 1966, 8401 Hathaway Drive became Burnet Junior High. Primary architect J. Roy White graduated from the University of Texas in 1929 and practiced in Austin until his retirement in the 1980s. White’s work often focused on institutional and civic buildings: he designed the original Austin Public Library in 1933 as part of Kuehne, Brooks, and Barr, and worked for …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish an approximately 1,190 square foot house. ARCHITECTURE The property at 2013 S L Davis Avenue is a single-story wood frame house constructed on a raised pier foundation. There are some remaining bungalow elements, including a recessed porch that occupies about half the front façade. The porch features an ample front-gabled roof facing the street, which is supported by two wood posts, one of which appears to be a later or temporary structural intervention. A minimal rail is present at the porch edge. Fenestration on the front elevation consists of three 1-over-1 windows with slim profiles and are possibly replacements. A second front gable extends outwards over the half of the front elevation not covered by the porch. It is narrower and set at a steeper angle than the other gable, which may indicate that these were not built at the same time. At the exterior walls, a non-historic metal or vinyl siding has been installed after the original construction. Below, there is a concrete skirt covering the foundation at the front of the property and includes metal crawlspace vents. The front stair is wood in construction. RESEARCH The address, formerly known as 2103 Washington Avenue, first appeared in public record around 1906, and housed renters for decades. The most frequently named of these renters in city directories were Moses Brooks, Milton Addison, and Livinia Brooks (later listed as Addison), who were generally listed as laborers. Moses Brooks is specifically listed as a hostler in one directory. It is unclear who owned the property at the time, but by the late 1920s, Livinia Addison is listed as an owner, along with a listing for a Brooks Addison, which may be an erroneous combination of the two men described above. Milton Addison’s name appears as owner off and on until 1953, after which the property is listed as either occupied solely by renters or, throughout the 1960s and early 1970s, vacant. Rental listings appeared in the Austin Statesman for the property at this time. Up to the 1980s, the house remained occupied by various renters. PROPERTY EVALUATION The 2016 East Austin Resource Survey lists the property as lacking integrity and is recommended as not eligible to contribute to a potential National Register district. …

(512) 699-7964 November 25, 2024 Mr. Alan Avery Avery Building Company RE: Structural Integrity Inspection 2103 S L Davis Avenue Austin, Texas 78702 Dear Mr. Avery: As requested, I made a site visit on the afternoon of November 25 at the above referenced property to conduct a visual observation of the foundation and framing members of the single- story residential building on the property. The purpose of this inspection is to provide a general assessment of the structural integrity of the building and determine if it is worth salvaging given its current condition. The building was built in 1935 with an approximate footprint of 1,200 square feet. The roof structure of the building consists of asphaltic shingles with plywood decks supported on wood rafters that span between interior and exterior walls. The walls consist of wood planks with sheathing on both sides and vinyl sidings on the exterior face. The substructure of the building consists of a wood deck with wood floor joists and beams supported on piers and spread footings. The record drawings of the building and the geotechnical report of the property were not available for review. According to my experience with projects located in vicinity of this property, the geology of the area generally consists of expansive clayey soil that expands and contract with the change of subgrade’s moisture content. The following conditions were observed during the site visit: • Large differential settlements were observed floor system. displacements vary between 2” to 4” from the perimeter to the center of the building. throughout The the • The foundation system consists of pier and beams with shallow spread footings which are subject to large movements due to moisture variation in the subgrade. This foundation system is not adequate for sites with expansive clayey soil. • Gaps were observed around the door and window frames. These gaps will continue to open or close depending on the foundation movement and compromise the efficiency and performance of the HVAC system. • Most of the walls are out of plumb due to the differential settlements in the floor system. All the door and window frames are out of square which make the doors and windows hard to operate. • Some of the roof and floor framing members appear to be rotted and require replacement. 2103 S L Davis Avenue November 25, 2024 …

To Historic Review From Avery Building Company Project: 2103 SL Davis, Austin TX The bullet points below along with the pictures attached are for consideration for the Historic Review of 2103 S L Davis. • Exterior Walls are in extremely poor condition and have no practical usefulness for an exterior wall in a home. • The approximately 2” thick exterior walls are comprised of old vinyl siding attached to very old “board & batten” style wood (much of which is rotten), with sheets of wood on the interior. There is no insulation (nor was there ever insulation). There are no 2x4 studs. • Some exterior walls are literally cardboard. Other areas are patched with random materials. • The only form standard studs/2x4 material is where they have been added recently or additions that were patched to the original structure. • Rotten wood can be seen around the windows, floor perimeter boards, house corners, in most any place the vinyl siding can be pulled back or is missing. • Interior walls are also approximately 2” thick. No studs. A form of wood sheet material I assume attached to boards. But no “studs”. • Electrical is extremely minimal. Appears to have been retrofitted through the floor. Only a couple interior lights, no exterior. The outlets are attached to the walls (as opposed to being in walls as is standard • Plumbing is extremely limited. It appears someone started the process of installing a bathroom and a kitchen at some point. The only plumbing that looks to have been active was a kitchen sink (in a room that was added to the back of the house). I assume there was an active bathroom at some point in time. • As there are no typical walls, plumbing is attached to the walls on the exterior of the house. • Floors are extremely wavy. Some entire rooms are slanted. • Windows are a mix-match of various types added over the decades. • The interior doorways are shorter than standard height. • Literally no portion of the floor system, interior walls, or exterior walls, could be used in a modern home. The structure at 2103 S L Davis appears to be an old shanty which experienced some additions and adjustments over the decades. Work that was done, such as attaching vinyl siding, installing the various windows, the “kitchen”, and room additions, were ALL done in a …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 PR-2024-142315; GF-2024-148232 305 NORTH BLUFF DRIVE 20.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1936 elementary school. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE Demolish a section of the Pleasant Hill Elementary School campus, currently serving as the AISD Science and Health Resource Center. The building is a freestanding institutional building with a footprint of approximately 25,758 square feet. It is entirely one story in height, with several wings projecting out from the main entry area, which contain classrooms and other general school spaces. Most of the individual classrooms feature large window walls, containing operable (or formerly operable) 10-lite metal windows. Though they are not true ribbon windows, as they are broken up by interior walls, each assembly does extend most of the width of each classroom to provide light and, at one time, ventilation. The main entry features a set of double metal doors recessed slightly from the front façade, with a covered walkway projecting out to the parking lot and street. The horizontality of the building is emphasized by the flat roof with a modest overhang to shade the fenestration from direct sunlight. Buff brick clads the entirety of the exterior façade. At ends of each wing, full masonry walls are present without fenestration. Since construction, some interventions such as new awnings and exposed mechanical systems are present at public-facing locations. RESEARCH Formerly a rural community, the neighborhood now known as Pleasant Hill in South Austin was built on a site once called Johnstown, which was surveyed but never developed years prior. Records indicate that, by 1903, Pleasant Hill had two one- teacher schools. These schools were split by race, with one reported to have 73 black students and the other 42 white students. Though an in-depth survey of this community could not be located during the first decades of the twentieth century, the southward development of the Austin urban area, as well as highway maps, indicate some growth in the area. The present school saw construction of its original wing (presently located in the center of the current complex) in the mid-1930s, opening in 1936 as a 1st-9th grade school in the local Pleasant Hill School District. After 9th grade, students would attend Austin High School. Continued growth and development in the area saw more students and expansion of the school, with the Pleasant Hill School District becoming a part of Austin …

21 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 DA 2024 149924; GF-2024-151345 1010 EAST CESAR CHAVEZ STREET PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Partially demolish and construct an addition to a ca. 1884 building for use as a restaurant. Demolish and reconstruct existing outbuilding. Construct a porch and trellis at the Medina Street elevation, where an existing porch has been infilled. Construct a gable- roofed addition to the East Cesar Chavez Street elevation with a projecting bay window and vertical fiber-cement siding. Demolish and reconstruct the existing outbuilding as-is for bakery use. One-story center-passage vernacular house with Italianate and Folk Victorian detailing. The building has a compound roofline, full-width front porch with turned posts and jigsawn trim, 2:2 wood windows, and horizontal wood siding. The house at 1010 East Cesar Chavez Street, addressed historically as 1010 East 1st Street and 1010 East Water Street, was constructed between 1887 and 1901. In 2011, it was determined eligible for individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places based on its association with the McDonald family, who lived there from 1901 onwards and was believed to have constructed the existing house at the time, and the Cain family, long-term residents of the property who purchased the house from the McDonalds. However, later research indicates that the main building was constructed as early as 1887, though its earliest extensions at the Cesar Chavez Street elevation and characteristic decorative elements were likely constructed by the McDonalds at the turn of the century. The 1900 Sanborn map indicates that several accretions to the building’s original center-passage form had occurred at that time, and directory and newspaper records indicate that George Evans lived at the address as early as 1884. The building’s longest-term occupants during the twentieth century were the Cain family. Patrick Henry Cain, who ran Austin’s Dam and Suburban Railway in the late 1800s, later became foreman of the Colorado Fire Company and Inspector of the Austin Water, Power, and Light Department. Cain and his employees were responsible for laying Austin’s earliest plumbing systems in much of the city. The property also served as a home-based business for the most recent of its significant residents, the Quintanilla family. Immediately after purchasing the house, cosmetologist Anita Quintanilla opened a full-service salon there until she moved the business a block away from her home. Quintanilla’s entrepreneurship is emblematic of the importance of …

22 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS DECEMBER 4, 2024 PR-2024-150598; GF-2024-151270 4704 SOUTH CONGRESS AVENUE, BUILDING 13 Relocate a ca. 1924 house outside the city limits. PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH The house is a Craftsman bungalow with a prominent gable roof with wide eaves sheltering a front porch with square columns and decorative brackets. It has horizontal wood siding and 1:1 wood windows, as well as non-original aluminum casement windows at secondary elevations. The house at 4704 South Congress Avenue, known historically as 4704 Post Road, was constructed sometime before 1940 outside Austin’s city limits, according to aerial photographs. Its Craftsman style suggests that it was built in the first two decades of the twentieth century. Though its earliest occupants are not known, the Blackwell family was living in the home as early as 1946; the Blackwells moved to Austin from Taylor around 1924. Charlton Blackwell worked as a brickman for the S & P Lines. By the 1970s, the property belonged to Charlie Goodnight, who developed the adjacent motor court and café. 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 for landmark designation: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of a Craftsman bungalow. 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 Encourage rehabilitation and adaptive reuse, but release the relocation permit upon completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 4, 2024 DA-2024-089522 WEST DOWNTOWN AUSTIN HISTORIC DISTRICT 810 WEST 11TH STREET 7.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a contributing property. ARCHITECTURE A wide, double-pitch side-gabled roof dominates the front façade of the house. A dormer vent is present at the center located above and behind a small gable overhang above the front door, which features a modest pair of brackets on either side of it. There are windows on either side of the brackets, and, while similar in size and material, do not match and provide a small amount of asymmetry to the elevation. The windows have been replaced with newer units and feature nonfunctional shutters. There is a concrete porch held two steps above ground in front of the door, with a simple metal handrail all around. The foundation is pier-on-beam, with a vented crawlspace underneath the floor. The house is almost entirely clad in buff brick in good condition, except for the side dormers, which are clad in wood lap siding with vents also present. RESEARCH The house at 810 West 11th Street was built in the early-to-mid 1930s, and the long-term owners for over 20 years were Joseph & Ida Kasper. The former was a furrier and owned a business at 109 East 9th Street in downtown Austin. While living at the address, they housed their children while they studied at the University of Texas. The son, Albert, was a dentistry student who left school to serve in World War II and finished his degree upon his return, graduating in 1945. Their daughter, Beatrice, graduated from university and became a teacher at Baker Junior High School in Hyde Park. She married Stewart Barnett in 1947 and they lived together in the house before moving out sometime after 1949. In 1987, the residence was converted to office use, and has continued in this function to present day. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the West Downtown Austin National Register 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 is a good example of an intact minimal traditional bungalow in the district. b. Historical association. The property does …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS DECEMBER 4, 2024 HR-2024-142310 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 2021 TRAVIS HEIGHTS BOULEVARD 8.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a third housing unit at rear of property. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a rear carport that is currently attached to a two-story garage and apartment structure. In its place, construct a third housing unit that is fully detached from both the main house and the garage/apartment building. The new housing unit is proposed to be two floors, with a smaller setback from the alley than the existing carport. A long, narrow building footprint of approximately 1000 square feet fits within all required setbacks, and the second floor is approximately half that size, located away from the alley side of the property. ARCHITECTURE Originally constructed in the Tudor Revival style, the house at 2021 Travis Heights Boulevard is clad in multi-toned brick on the first floor with stucco above. Several front-facing gables frame the right half of the building, There are several screened windows along with an arched front door recessed slightly into the smallest gable. At some point after the district’s period of significance, a second-story addition was built above the left side of the house. This addition is clad in stucco to match the second floor of the original house and features three front-facing windows at one side. The inventory for the National Register district describes this alteration as “severe.” Behind the house is a two-story detached garage with living space above with little to no decoration. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS When it was first constructed in the early 1930s, the house was owned by Lawrence & Lorraine Lane. Lawrence worked at multiple roles at the E. M. Scarbrough & Sons store, and Lorraine worked as a teacher. Lawrence Lane passed away prior to 1937, and Lorraine occupied the house for the next decade, at which point it was rented out to students and young professionals. The house was purchased by Reynolds & Gwendolyn Bixler, who occupied it for several years after. 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed construction is located at the rear corner of the property, facing an alley, in accordance with Standard …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS A garage that is listed as a contributing resource to the Old West Austin National Register district, which has been altered, is proposed to be demolished. It its place, a second housing unit, which is to be two floors in height with an added loft space. The footprint of the housing unit is to be similar in size and in an approximate location to the garage. The housing unit would be connected to the historic house with a new single-story screened porch. ARCHITECTURE The house at 1515 West 31st Street is a single-story and was constructed around 1938 with simple bungalow details. There is a front porch set at the right side, supported by two simple wood posts. The front entry is recessed under the porch, along with a single-hung window. Along with the two other windows at the front elevation, these have all been previously replaced. The roof is also made of replacement metal finish, which is a combination of hipped and gabled construction. There was also a two-story rear addition added to the house previously, which features a front-facing gable roof with decorative brackets that may confuse it as original. At the rear of the property is a simple rectangular garage with two roll up doors at opposite sides. A backyard pool is also present. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Little could be found about those that lived at 1515 East 31st Street. There is record of a William & Beatrice Spraul owning the property in 1940, but it is possible that they may have moved during World War II, as news articles identify an Earl Smith with that address by 1942. In between this, an invitation for service members was extended by Mrs. Mary Warner of this address. It is unclear how long each of these people lived at the address, or what their roles in the community were. 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The new unit is located …

12.b - 1417 Preston Ave - public comment original pdf

Thumbnail of the first page of the PDF
Page 1 of 2 pages

We do NOT support the demoli�on of 1417 Preston Ave., which has its original window and door openings and architectural configura�on from its 1935 construc�on. Changes in its siding over the years, easily reversible, are the likely cause of its “non-contribu�ng” status in the Old West Aus�n Na�onal Register Historic District. The unique design/ floorplan of this house for Pemberton Heights indicates that it is likely an architect-designed residence. The Landmark Commission does not appear to have undertaken any research on 1417 to determine if it meets City of Aus�n Landmark status. This should be determined before the Landmark Commission makes a determina�on on the fate of this house. Because the OWANRHD is so large, contribu�ng status was based on visual assessment (approved by the Texas Historical Commission) rather than research for the 1600+ proper�es in this largest NRD in Texas. It is unfortunate to have a buyer for one of our historic proper�es who likes the historic appearance and stability of this block of Preston Ave., wants to own a residence here, and then demolishes an original house. Their view of our street doesn’t change, but everyone else’s does and not in a good way. The east block of Preston Ave. is very intact from its original construc�on; only one house has been completely demolished and rebuilt. A “modern farmhouse”, the style that the architect appears to be planning for 1417 Preston, is today’s version of a McMansion and is incompa�ble architecturally with our historic street. The scale and style of the original 1930s-50s houses on Preston Ave. works well for our small lots and low ver�cal density; adjacent homes are not crowded or overhung, and the streetscape and large trees are not overwhelmed. However, the architect plans to widen the street façade of 1417 so that the east side will be at the east setback line; this will place the new house ten feet from the neighboring house to the east. The garage will be raised to story and a half height and placed against the west setback line, overhanging neighbors on the south and west sides. We request that the Landmark Commission perform basic research on 1417 Preston Ave. to determine whether it meets the criteria to be eligible for Aus�n Landmark status if the exterior is restored. We do not want this original house to be demolished. Candace and John Volz 1406 Preston Ave.
