HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-006510 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1505 ALAMEDA DR. C.3 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a ca. 1947/1985 contributing house. Construct a new single-family residence with a pool. 1) Total demolition of a ca. 1947/1985 contributing house. 2) Construction of a Contemporary-style single-family house with an attached rear carport. The proposed house is two full stories plus a penthouse and rooftop deck. The house has a flat roof with overhanging eaves; various siding materials including vertical wood, stucco, and metal panels; large, fixed windows with casement and hopper sashes; and a screened front porch. The carport opens onto the alley. 3) Installation of an in-ground pool in the front yard, behind a privacy wall. ARCHITECTURE Two-story, irregularly shaped stucco house that shows influences of the International style. A one-story portion of the house is capped by a steeply pitched shed roof. To the right, the second story projects to the front and side of the house, with the overhangs supported by pipe columns. This second-story volume has a flat roof with wide eaves. The front porch consists of a stoop with a flat-roofed overhang. Windows on both floors are steel casements. The second story of the house was added in 1985 based on multiple sources. Building permit records indicate an application to construct an “addition to residence to create a two-story residence” in 1982 that expired. A subsequent permit with the same project description is marked as passing final building inspection on July 24, 1985. Accompanying drawings for the permitted work are not available. Other evidence indicates the house was previously a single-story, one-bedroom house. The 1962 Sanborn map shows a small one-story residence on this lot. The house was a rental throughout most of the historic period, and classified ads that ran between 1953 and 1972 describe the house as a “small cottage” or “small house for a couple.” The ads vary in terms of how the rooms are described. The most complete description is that the house had a living room, dinette, kitchen, bedroom, and bath-shower. Through 1972, it is evident that the house had only one bedroom. In its present configuration, the house has two bedrooms and 1 ½ baths. See associated documents under Property Information below.

It is essential to the historic fabric of this historic community. There are many others who have decided to maintain the historic nature of their homes by adding to their needs. Its a very common practice! Individual rights do not supersede the community at large. We have designated Travis Heights worthy of a National Historic district for a reason. Anyone who is going to make an investment in our community should understand the need to maintain the intrinsic nature of the homes here and the long term value. Demolishing charming homes might pay off for speculators in the short term but at a cost to our community with irrevocable loss. Thank you for your time.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-021264 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1702 HARTFORD ROAD C.4 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS DESIGN STANDARDS The proposed new building is a modular structure, two stories in height, atop raised piers. It has a compound gabled and flat roof, with a flat-roofed entry porch. Fenestration includes fixed undivided windows with irregular placement throughout and fully glazed sliders and entry doors. It is clad in horizontal wood siding, 4’x4’ fiber cement panels, and corrugated metal. 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 new building is set back approximately 26’, consistent with surrounding buildings. 2. Orientation The proposed building is oriented toward the street. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s two-story height is generally taller than the surrounding contributing buildings, and its somewhat monolithic massing may impact compatibility with the rest of the district. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s proportions are not compatible with surrounding contributing buildings. 5. Design and style While the proposed building’s details are consistent with its styling and it is sufficiently differentiated from the historic buildings in the district, its fenestration patterns, cladding, and modular design contrast with its Tudor Revival neighbors. 6. Roofs The proposed gabled roofline appears mostly compatible, though the flat portions of the roof are largely incompatible. 7. Exterior walls While the proposed horizontal siding is appropriate, the fiber cement paneling and vertical corrugated metal are not. 8. Windows and doors The proposed fenestration pattern and window configuration appear mostly incompatible. 9. Porches The proposed porch does not appear to reflect and continue the size, proportions, placement, depth, and rhythm of porches on contributing buildings within the district. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The existing non-contributing building on the site was approved for demolition in 2022. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Comment on and release the new construction plans. LOCATION MAP C.4 – 2

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-019092 OLD WEST AUSTIN 3300 BEVERLY ROAD C.7 – 1 ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a one-story addition to the front and rear of a ca. 1941 house. Add a roof to the existing side porch. 1) Construct an addition to the front of the house. The gabled addition is clad in horizontal fiber cement siding and features 6:6 aluminum windows with divided lights. Gable ends feature vents and board-and-batten details to match the existing gable. 2) Construct a rear addition to match the existing house and front addition. The proposed addition is one story in height and contains 6:6 sash and multilight casement windows. Its gabled roof will match the pitch of the front addition. 3) Cover the existing side porch with a composition shingle roof. One-story Minimal Traditional house with cross-gabled plan, horizontal wood siding, and partial-width inset covered porch. The original wood windows were replaced in 2009 per permits.

Alfred and Mary Lou Riba lived at 3300 Beverly Road until his death in 1966. 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 proposed rear addition is sited appropriately, but the front addition does not meet the design standards. 2. Scale, massing, and height The proposed project appears appropriate in scale, massing, and height. 3. Design and style The proposed design and style is compatible with the existing historic building; however, it may not be adequately differentiated from the existing house. 4. Roofs The proposed project’s roof pitch, height, and materials appear appropriate. 5. Exterior walls Proposed cladding is compatible with the existing house and district, though gable-end detailing may impede appropriate differentiation from historic fabric. 6. Windows, screens, and doors The proposed aluminum divided-light windows are compatible with the house and district. 7. Porches and decks The proposed side-porch addition appears mostly compatible. 8. Chimneys The proposed project removes a historic-age chimney. C.7 – 2 Summary The project meets some applicable standards. PROPERTY …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 28, 2022 HR-2022-022699 TRAVIS HEIGHTS -FAIRVIEW PARK 406 E. ANNIE STREET C.8 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish a noncontributing building and construct a new building in its place. Construct a new studio. 1) Demolish existing noncontributing building. 2) Construct a new primary building on existing footprint, retaining existing stone retaining walls in front yard. The proposed new residence is clad in stucco, vertical cedar siding, horizontal lap siding, and stone. It is three stories in height, with a roof deck and balconies enclosed by metal guardrails. Fenestration is irregular throughout, with fixed undivided windows and full-height fully glazed sliders. It has a compound roofline with gabled and flat elements clad in standing-seam metal. 3) Construct a detached one-story studio building in front of the primary building. The proposed studio features a shed and hipped roof clad in standing-seam metal. It has stucco siding, lap siding, and vertical cedar siding. Fenestration matches the primary building. 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: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed primary building is set back significantly, as it occupies the footprint of the existing noncontributing structure. The proposed accessory building is set back 25’, consistent with other buildings in the neighborhood. 2. Orientation Both buildings are oriented toward the primary street. 3. Scale, Massing, and Height and 4. Proportions The proposed primary building’s height, proportions, complex massing, and floor-to-floor heights are not compatible with the district; however, its placement on the lot should minimize its visual impact. The proposed accessory building is not subordinate to the primary building due to its placement on the lot, though it is somewhat more compatible in scale and proportion. 5. Design and Style While both proposed buildings are stylistically consistent and differentiated from the historic buildings in the district, neither are compatible with the character of the district. 6. Roofs The compound shed roof at the secondary structure, most visible from the street, is more compatible than the complex roof form of the primary building, which is not compatible with the district. 7. Exterior Walls While some of the buildings’ siding materials are appropriate for the district, the application of all siding …
