HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 HR-2021-134469; PR-2021-119932 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICT 1412 ALAMEDA DRIVE C.5 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Partially demolish ca. 1932 contributing house; construct a two-story rear addition; and replace windows on side elevations. 1) Construction of a two-story rear addition. The addition will have a composition shingle roof, painted wood siding, and windows similar to those used on the house. 2) Retention of character-defining features on the façade, including wood windows and screens, the street-facing front door, and attic vent and decorative brackets at the gable ends. Removal and storage of a second, side-facing door from the front porch. Retention of wood siding. 3) Replacement of original wood 1:1 windows and decorative screens with 6:1 windows on side elevations. Replacement of paired windows on the south elevation with a double door. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story Craftsman bungalow clad in horizontal wood siding. The front-gabled roof has a clipped gable with decorative brackets, and the partial-width porch has a round vent below the clipped gable. The porch roof is supported by tapered box columns atop partial height brick piers. Windows are single or groupings of two to three 1:1 sash with decorative screens. The front door has three vertical lights in the upper portion. The house at 1412 Alameda Dr. was constructed around 1932 and initially occupied by a series of renters. From at least 1947–1966, Homer G. and Lillian K. Monson owned the home. Homer Monson (1920–1996) sold used furniture; newspaper articles indicate he also managed and owned several ranches. He ran an unsuccessful write-in campaign for Travis County Commissioner in 1966. Homer married Lillian Kastner in 1946. Lillian held a lengthy tenure at Austin National Bank, marking 15–20 years of employment in 1960. During that time, she advanced from a clerk to a supervisor. The couple built an addition on the rear of the house in 1952. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW 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 4. Exterior walls and trim 5. Windows, doors, and screens Standards in each of these sections emphasize retaining intact historic materials and pursuing selective replacement only when absolutely necessary due to deterioration. Standard 5.3.c …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 PR-21-126586 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1809 W. 29TH STREET C.6 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS DESIGN STANDARDS Construct a new two-story residence. The proposed building will be clad in vertical fiber-cement siding and have a compound gabled roof of standing-seam metal. Stone accents surround an offset picture window at the main elevation. Other fenestration includes 2:2 irregularly placed fixed and casement windows of varying dimensions throughout, a fully glazed front door with sidelights and transom, and a front-facing metal garage door. 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 appears to be set back over 30’ from the street. 2. Orientation The proposed new building is oriented toward the primary street. However, the front-loaded garage does not comply with the design standards. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is two stories in height with compound massing, whereas the surrounding contributing buildings are one story with simple massing. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s steep roof, vertical siding, and vertically oriented windows emphasize its proportions, which are at odds with the more horizontally proportioned contributing buildings in the district. 5. Design and style The proposed building is adequately differentiated from historic buildings in the district. It is somewhat compatible in materials, though its proportions, fenestration patterns, and massing are less compatible. 6. Roofs The proposed roof appears relatively simple at the street-facing elevation, enhancing its compatibility with surrounding contributing buildings. 7. Exterior walls While the exterior siding material is appropriate, its vertical orientation is incompatible with the surrounding historic buildings. The stone accent material does not appear on nearby contributing buildings; it is not compatible. 8. Windows and doors The proposed building’s sparse and irregular placement of windows is not compatible with the surrounding traditional contributing buildings; however, its use of operable and divided-light windows somewhat enhances compatibility. The offset bay window and complex glazing pattern at the front door are not compatible. The front-facing garage does not comply with the design standards. 10. Chimneys The proposed chimney is clad with masonry, which complies with the design standards. 11. Attached garages …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 HR-2021-139711 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICT 1500 HARTFORD ROAD C.7 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct an addition to and replace windows in a ca. 1948 contributing house; remodel a noncontributing garage apartment. 1) Construction of a dormer on the front (east) elevation of the house. The dormer will be clad in fiber-cement siding and have a gabled roof that extends above the ridgeline of the house. 2) Replacement of the flat roof over an existing rear family room addition with a gabled roof. 3) Replacement of all exterior doors with fiberglass doors. Replacement of original wood 1:1 and 8:8 windows on the house and garage apartment with 1:1 vinyl windows in existing openings. Enlargement of windows on rear elevation of the house for egress. 4) Cleaning of brick, replacement of damaged trim, and replacement of composition shingle roofing on the house. 5) At the garage apartment, replacement of existing wood siding with fiber-cement siding and replacement of composition shingle roofing. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story house with brick cladding and a cross-gabled composition shingle roof. The partial width, shed-roofed porch has four square brick columns with flared caps and a brick railing. Windows are paired 1:1 sash on the front, with 8:8 windows on the other elevations. The rear of the house has a ca. 1958 brick addition with a flat roof and horizontal sliding windows. The garage apartment is to the rear/north of the house, with a driveway off of Hartford Rd. The two-story building has a hipped composition shingle roof, horizontal wood siding, a two-car garage door, single and paired 8:8 windows, and an exterior steel stair. The building is of undetermined age. The house at 1500 Hartford Rd. was constructed around 1948 for J. Colvin and Marianne Ward, but it changed hands shortly thereafter. Throughout the rest of the historic period, the house was occupied by Harry Goldstein (1909–2004) and AdaBelle Dochen Goldstein (1914–1994). Born in New York City, Harry Goldstein moved to Texas by 1940. He was a pawnbroker at Wilson’s Loan and Jewelry. The couple were active in fundraising and leadership at Congregation Agudas Achim. The couple built an addition on the side of the house in 1958. No permits for the garage apartment were identified.

Allen, Amber From: Sent: To: Subject: Bailey Harrington Tuesday, October 19, 2021 9:00 AM PAZ Preservation Support for HR 21-139711 *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Hello, I am a neighboring property owner at 1601 Wethersfield Road of the house at 1500 Hartford and received notice of the upcoming HLC meeting for remodel of the home. I wanted to send my support for the proposed remodel and improvements of the house. I believe they are in character with the intent of the COA HP ordinance and the house is in much need of some TLC. Happy to opine further if you need any additional information or input, and I do not know the applicant or home owner just for transparency purposes.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 HR-21-143509 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1409 WOODLAWN BOULEVARD C.8 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct an addition and enclose porches. Add a dormer to the Woodlawn Boulevard façade. 1) Enclose porch at Woodlawn Boulevard façade and add dormer above. The enclosure will be clad in siding with 1:1 windows added to match existing; the dormer’s roof pitch and gable will match the two existing dormers. 2) Enclose rear porch and construct a connecting addition. The proposed addition is one story in height, with a low-sloped roof and fixed-pane windows at the former porch. The remainder is clad in siding with 1:1 windows to match existing on the rest of the house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS One-story side-gabled house with partial-width porch, limestone cladding, rubble masonry chimney, and front-facing dormers. The house has 1:1 replacement windows and added porches at the Woodlawn façade. The house at 1409 Woodlawn Boulevard was built around 1937 for the Melinger family. Julia Melinger, widow of Samuel Melinger, lived in the home until at least 1964. Her two sons, Jesse and Alfred, also lived in the home with their families at varying intervals. Jesse and Phyllis Melinger, who owned and operated a jewelry store, were long-term residents. Phyllis Melinger was active in the Sisterhood of Beth Israel Temple and participated on various committees for activities benefiting the congregation during her tenure in the home. 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 removes minimal historic fabric. Existing elements, such as masonry cladding and roof railings, will be repaired. The building’s main entrance will be located on Woodlawn Boulevard instead of Enfield Road. 3. Roofs The proposed roof repair will match the existing asphalt shingle roof. The additional proposed dormer will be located between the two existing dormers and behind an existing railing; it will not be tall enough to include a window. 6. Porches The proposed project fully encloses both porches. The Enfield Road façade will be encased in wood, while the Woodlawn Boulevard addition’s sunroom will be enclosed with glass. Residential additions 1. Location The proposed addition is located at the …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Attachments: Contreras, Kalan Brummett, Elizabeth; Allen, Amber; RE: 1409 Woodlawn Blvd - HLC Referral & Fees Friday, October 15, 2021 4:35:06 PM Rendering of street view with proposed extension - 1409 Woodlawn Blvd.pdf Hello Kalan: We really appreciate your taking the time last week to explain the process regarding the Historic Landmark Commission. As advised by you, we are attaching a rendering of the home’s elevation with the proposed modification as seen from the street along Woodlawn Blvd. The main frontage of the house is along Woodlawn Blvd and that will also be the main entrance to the property. Also, I would appreciate it if the following comment can be shared with the commission. “We moved into Clarksville in 2014 leaving behind a typical suburban home in the Bee Caves area. The cottage-style character of this house and the warm, neighborly feel of Clarksville were magnetic for us. Our house, built in 1934, is close to perfect for us. During remodeling following purchase, we went out of the way to ensure that all our efforts were directed at improving the interior while leaving the exterior unaffected, except for the addition of a deck. With the blessing of grand children, we now find ourselves in need of a little more space. The house, however, is set at the back corner of the property and the setbacks and deed restrictions limit our ability to expand in any big way. In any case, we are not interested in any changes that would affect the look and appeal of the house – whether for us or our neighbors. Hence, we have opted, in the main, to combine the existing porch and deck into a sunroom that, with sliding glass doors on all exterior walls will appear like a large porch from the street while giving us usability in all seasons. The placement of the one-room addition is also based on our desire to minimally affect profile of the house and avoid a new gabled roof as the latter would greatly change the appearance. In the attached rendition, we have tried to convey the anticipated profile of the house for our neighbors as they venture down Woodlawn Blvd. We intend that our home, with its extension, will remain just as natural an element in this historical district as it was before. Thank you for your consideration, Kapil & Sangeeta Jain” …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 HR-2021-144378 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1617 WESTOVER ROAD C.9 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct new front and rear porches, second-story addition, and detached garage and carport. Replace front door. 1) Demolish existing partial-width front porch and replace with larger front porch. The proposed porch has a hipped roof clad in standing-seam metal and supported by painted wood columns. Decorative corbels are visible at eaves. Construct matching rear porch. 2) Replace front door with fully glazed door. 3) Construct second-story addition at south elevation. The proposed addition is constructed behind the ridgeline of the house and is clad in wood siding with a gabled shingle-clad roof to match existing. It features 4:4 and 6:6 divided-light windows. 4) Construct rear garage, carport, and driveway. The proposed structure is clad in fiber-cement horizontal siding with limestone accents and capped by a hipped, standing-seam metal roof with decorative corbels. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Two-story Colonial revival house clad in horizontal siding and capped with a side-gabled roof. It features 6:6 wood windows and a covered entryway with a gabled roof supported by boxed columns. The house at 1617 Westover Road was either moved onto the lot or constructed to replace an existing fire-damaged building in 1939, according to conflicting permit records and newspaper reports. Its first residents were Truett B. and Leone L. Marshall. Truett B. Marshall served as Austin’s tax assessor and collector for two multi-year terms: 1928 to 1947, and 1952 to 1963. By 1949, the Marshalls had sold the house to its next owner-occupants, the Nelsons. Dr. Ellis C. Nelson worked as a professor at the Presbyterian Theological Seminary and authored several books on religious instruction during his tenure there. 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 porch modification removes the original front porch and replaces it entirely. 5. Windows, Doors, and Screens The proposed modifications replace an unglazed front door with a fully glazed front door, which is less appropriate for the house’s era and style. 6. Porches The proposed porch modification does not retain the original porch’s dimensions or roofline and contains decorative corbels …
