HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JUNE 1, 2022 C14H-2011-0020; HR-2022-062618 LINDEMANN HOUSE 1100 E 8TH STREET B.8 – 1 PROPOSAL Window replacement throughout. Convert a rear window into a door. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The existing building has 2:2 double-hung wood windows with wood screens. The applicant is proposing to replace the existing windows with 2:2 wood windows and replace a rear window with a wood door. ARCHITECTURE Constructed ca. 1887, the Lindemann House is a 1 ½-story Folk Victorian house built of Austin common brick. The house has a side-gabled roof with a centered, front-facing gable. The full-width porch has a jigsawn balustrade between six square columns with chamfered corners, decorative trim, and jigsawn brackets. Windows are 2:2 double-hung wood within segmental arched openings. The house sits on a considerable rise above E. 8th and Waller streets. A raised lawn surrounding the house is reached by steps from the corner and side street, with decorative metal gates and railings. Between, dense primrose jasmine grows along the slope out to the curb line, with no sidewalk. 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: Repair and alterations 5. Windows, doors, and screens Standard 5.13 establishes requirements for historic landmarks. It states that window and door openings should not be enlarged, moved, or enclosed except as required by an addition. On the north elevation, a window will be replaced by a white pine door, altering the existing opening. However, the window that is being replaced is on the back of the house and will not be visible from the street. Summary The project largely meets the applicable standards. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the application but encourage the applicant to repair, rather than replace, any original windows at front and sides of house or where visible from the street. Consider approval of rear window replacement with door. Should the Commission allow replacement, encourage the applicant to keep and store the existing window so that the alteration may be reversed in the future.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS JUNE 1, 2021 HR-2021-154877 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1411 ETHRIDGE AVENUE C.1 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1939 contributing building and associated outbuildings. Two-story, symmetrical-plan, cross-gabled Classical Revival house with 6:6 and 9:9 wood windows, horizontal siding, and a full-width porch supported by boxed columns. Details include dentils at cornice, sidelights and transom at front door, Classical cornice returns at gable ends, and wood shutters. The house and outbuildings at 1411 Ethridge Avenue were built in 1939 for Claude A. and Clara Williams. Claude Williams served as Texas’ assistant Secretary of State at the time of the home’s construction. He went on to head the Texas Unemployment Commission. By 1949, Dr. Revace (called Sam) and Margaret Ann Swearingen had purchased the property. Dr. Sam Swearingen served as the chief of staff, chief of surgery, and chairman of the Board of Trustees at Brackenridge Hospital; he later became chief of staff at the Austin State Hospital, medical director of the Denton State School, and medical director of the San Angelo State Center. Toward the end of the historic period, in the late 1960s, the Villaseñor family moved into the house. Lois Villaseñor, along with her husband Charles, had opened Mission Funeral Home on East Cesar Chavez Street—the first funeral parlor that catered to Latinos in segregated Austin—in the 1950s.
