ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE NUMBER: C14W2010-0022 HLC DATE: PC DATE: June 28. 2010 July26, 2010 December 13, 2010 February 22, 2011 APPLICANTS: Albert Percival, III and Kevin “Chuck” Hughes, owners HISTORIC NAME: Bones-Stokes House WATERSHED: Shoal Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 1107 w qth Street ZONING FROM: SF3NP to SF3H-NP SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENI)ATION: Staff cannot recommend the proposed zoning change from family residence — neighborhood plan (SF-3-NP) combining district to family residence — historic landmark — neighborhood plan (SF3-H-NP) combining district zoning because of recent significant modifications to the front of the house. The house is in the proposed Castle Hill Local Historic District. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Staff cannot recommend this house for designation as a historic landmark because the architectural character of the house changed substantially in the last year. The house had a projecting canted bay on the right side of the façade, which staff believes was original to the house in form, despite depictions on historical Sanhorn Fire Insurance Company maps. The canted bay was pushed forward several feet in a 1962 remodeling of the house, but still retained its essential form, if not location. In 2010, the owners replaced the canted bay with a boxed picture window, which, while sensitively designed, has compromised the historic appearance of the house to the extent that staff cannot recommend the house for individual designation as it no longer retains sufficient integrity of materials and design to convey’ its historic appearance. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: June 28, 2010: Postponed the case to July 26, 2010 at staffs request so that the applicants could meet with the Certificate of Appropriateness Committee for discussion of the new window on the July 26, 2010: Recommended denial of the proposed zoning façade of the house. change from SF3NP to SF3HNP due to the recent installation of the front window which has compromised the historic appearance of the house. Vote: 6-0 (Kleon absent). NOTE: The applicants were not present at the July 26, 2010 hearing and request a re-hearing of their application. December 13, 2010: The Commission’s action on July 26, 2010 to recommend denial of the proposed zoning change was not rescinded. The motion to rescind failed on a vote of 2-4 (Limbacher, Hansen. Kleon and Meyers opposed; Rosato absent). PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Recommended denial of the proposed zoning change from SF-3-NP to SF-3-H-NP due to the modifications to the front façade of the house. Vote: 8-0 (Reddy off-dais). DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is listed as a Priority 2 for research in the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984). CITY COUNCIL DATE: March 10. 2011 ACTION: ORDINANCE REAIUNGS: 1ST 2ND 3RD ORDINANCE NUMBER: CASE MANAGER: Steve Sadowsky PHONW 974-6454 NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATION: Old West Austin Neighborhood Association BASIS FOR RECOMMENIJATION: Architectur& One-and-a-half stmy wing-and-gable plan hipped-roof frame transitional cottage with hipped dormers and a partial-width inset wraparound porch on square wood posts with minimal plain brackets. Fenestration consists of 1:1 wood units in single and paired units. The house has a Ca. 2010 boxed multi-light picture window on the right side of the facade, which replaced a canted bay with three 1:1 wood windows. Historical Associations: This ca. 1909 house sits on property which was originally part of the Raymond Estate. which occupied a large part of what is now the XVest Line National Register Historic District. G.M. Brass, who owned the house across the street from this house, purchased this property from the Raymond heirs in 1901 and sold it to A.W. and Ida Brill in 1906. Brill owned the lot to the west as well, and built his house there in 1909, the same year he sold this property to the first owners and occupants of this house, Omer D. and Pearl Bones. Bones executed a contract with the Calcasieu Lumber Company for the construction of this house in July, 1909. Omer Bones was born in Missouri in 1872 and moved to Austin around 1881. He and his wife Pearl appear in the 1900 U.S. Census in Austin as living at 96 Trinity Street in the home of her mother, Mary Leonard. Bones was listed as working in the grocery business. He and Pearl were living at 401 E. 1t Street when they purchased this property in 1909. The 1910 U.S. Census shows them at this house. He and Pearl had two young boys, Shirley, age 5, and Vinson, age 3. Bones was hsted as working for a packing company. City directories show that Bones was the city salesman for Armour and Company, a beef packing house at 4th and Brazos at the time he purchased this property. but had gone to work for Swift and Company, another meat packing plant, by 1912. He and Pearl sold this house in 1913 to Julia Stokes, and moved to 3904 Avenue D. Bones operated a grocery store at 2520-22 Guadalupe Street with Walter H. Morris in the mid- 1910s, then became the storekeeper and accountant at the Austin State School, a position he held for 2-5 years. After Pearl Bones died in 1924, he married his second wife. Louise, who was a seamstress at the Austin State School. In 1930, he and Louise were living on the campus of the school. He died in 1941 at the age of 69. Among his honorary pallbearers were JR. Reed, proprietor of the music store on Congress Avenue, Theo Davis. the son of Nelson Davis, a large wholesale grocery business, and F.W. Sternenberg. the proprietor of a large lumberyard. Omer Bones sold the house in 1913 to Julia Stokes, who moved here with her son Edward and daughter Agnes from a house near Rosewood and Chestnut in East Austin. The family had originally lived in Govalle. where Julia’s husband John had been a rubber stamp maker before he passed away in 1908. Edward Stokes was a traveling salesman for a wholesale grocery company, and went to work for \VeIls Fargo in 1918. He was the cashier for Railway Express until his retirement in the late 1950s. He passed away in 1961. His first wife, Ruby, passed away in June, 1945; his second wife, Jewel, lived here until her death at the age of 101 in 1996.

In the sumner, people would spend a lot of time on the porch because it was too hot in the house, so the porch was not only functional, hut a social area as well. This house faces north, which made the porch a comfortable social area away from the heat of the sun, Above the front door there is a transom, and this was an integral part of architecture of the period as well — these transoms could be opened to provide air circulation within the house without having to have the front door open. The house still has 7 working transoms throughout the inside, which helped to circulate the air between rooms. even with the doors closed. Transitional houses such as this one represent the beginning of the change from Victorians with ornate decoration to simple hungalows. At the turn of the 20th centu’, the big Victorian houses were falling out of popular taste because of’ their over-indulgence in architectural ornamentation. When you think of big Victorian houses. )Ou think of titrrut, leaded glass, fish-scale shingles. and other ways of ornamenung the house. Transitional houses marked a change — they backed away l’roin such a high degree of ornamentation. and also presented a sinipler. more functional floorplan. ‘Ibis was the fourth house built on this side of 9th street between ltiylcr and Illanco. lhe first house was IIII W 9th. which still stands. It was owned by James 1-1. Hubbard. who was the secretary and treasurer of the Austin Transfer Company, a railn’ad warehousing tin_n. By 1909, the hcusc next door (to rite west - 1 l09 htxl been built by August l3rill. who was a saddle and buggy manufacturer. Vhere the apartment cempiex is now (1115) was another pre-1910 house. this one owned by James McNarnara. who with his brother, had a candy factory here in Austin. [hat house was torn down in 1966 and the apanntent complex was built in 1977. This area was developed quickly and attracted the upper middle class to its hilltop location on the western edge or the city. The families who bought houses in this block included the proprietor of a dry goods store on 6 Street (Shelby house at 1114 W. 9th), the city salesman fbr a wholesale grocery company, and a wholesale produce merchant, all men who had either established their own businesses or had dsen to the top of their line of work. ‘The house at 1107 Vest gill Street has had a number of changes over the years. fhe house first appears on the L922 Sanborn Fire Insurance (‘onipany map. and shows a smaller Footprint than exists today. The original house had a porch stretching all the way across the front of tite house and another one along the east side. i’here was no back perch. Between 1922 arid L935, design of the house was modified to include a ha’ window, extend the sides of the hous 4 C’— back and include a small porch in the middle of the back of the house. In 1962. the house was modified again — the hay window was brought forward a few feet onto the porch to create a larger living room inside — which eliminated the front porch in front of this window, and the back part of the side porch was enclosed to enlarge the bedroom. In 200L the kitchen at the back of the house was extended slightly to the rear (‘tim Cuppelt was the architect for this In 2010 the front porch was restored to again extend all the way across the tont of the project). house (and free one of the original porch pillars from the wall built in 1962) by moving a modified version of the hay window back (tim Cuppett was also the architect for this project). All of the finishes and details on the outside of the house are original. with the exception of (he new bay ‘sindow. HISTORY OF [HE HOUSE Interestingly. in 1910, Bones’ boss. l’hc (bt owner at this house was ()mcr 0. Hones and his faniily. Mr. Hones vats the city salesrntm for Armour and Company, which was a beef packing house at 4” and Brains Street. dv 1912. he was working for Swift and Company at 311 Conc’rcss Avenue (shere the ELephant Room is now I honias Jervis, the manager of Armour & Company. lised at 1115 W 9th Street, where the apartment complex is now. Hones and his wife Pearl lived here until around 1914. wlen they moved to 3903 4venue I), and he went into the gmcery business with Walter ii. Morris at 2520-22 Guadalupe Street. EerTtiihly, ()ri’er Bones became the storekeeper for the Austin State School. a posilicin he held for 25 years. His second wife, Louise, was a searnslress at the state school. 1)mer Bones sold the house to Edward W. Stokes, who had hen a traveling saicsman for a wholesale grocen company called W.13. Walker and Sons. Fthard Stokes had lived with his thrnilv in the Govalle area of East Austin before moving into this house. His father, John Stoke5, was an English-born rubber stamp manufacturer, and had died the same year Edward was born.
