Applicant: Ben Goudy City Staff: Kimberly Collins, Historic Preservation Office, 512-978-1801 Committee Feedback: The Architectural Review Committee received a presentation on the project on April 18, 2022. Committee members did not find the design compatible with the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register District. Discussion included the lot would accommodate keeping the house and adding an addition onto the back, the proposed design was a barrier to its surroundings and stark, and the design should be more approachable and maintain current setbacks. Members recommended bringing a one-story presence out in front and moving parking to the side or rear, reducing the sizeable second-story window size, and overall making the design more compatible because it significantly diverges from the historic streetscape.
