John and Mattie Barclay House COUNCIL DISTRICT: 10 WATERSHED: Taylor Slough ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 3009 Bowman Avenue ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP to SF-3-H-NP SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change from single family residence (SF-3) district to single family residence – Historic Landmark (SF-3-H) combining district zoning for the original part of the house, and release of the demolition permit for the south addition and pool. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture and historical associations. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: June 28, 2021: Postponed at staff request with applicant’s consent. July 26, 2021: Initiated historic zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is beyond the bounds of the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984). The applicants have submitted a lead-based paint report in support of their application for demolition; however, the report states that while there is lead paint on the interior of the house it is intact, and no remediation is necessary.

The original house has a large, two-story, front-gabled frame addition to the south, which replaced a what appears to be an original detached garage, and then a later detached garage. The original house retains its articulation despite the additions to the south. Historical Associations: The house appears to have been built around 1941 for John Barclay, the pastor of the Central Christian Church in downtown Austin. There is a water service permit to Burt Dyke, who owned the large estate at what was the end of Bowman Avenue, and whose home is now known as the Tarry House; there does not appear to be a building permit for this house; but the …
3009 Bowman West Austin Case Overview • Request: To release the demolition permit. • Staff Recommendation: The site “may” meet two criteria for designation, though “there is a question of integrity” as to whether it truly meets architectural criteria. • Discussion: Staff reports that “it is unlikely that Rev. Barclay would recognize the current building.” Historic Designation Criteria Code Criteria (Must Meet Two) 3009 Bowman Architecture Historic Association Archaeology Community Value Landscape Feature ? ? ✖ ✖ ✖ A Question of Integrity: Architecture Staff Report: “[T]he new addition to the south dwarfs [the original part of the house] so there is a question of integrity here that the Commission needs to decide as to whether the house meets the architectural significance criterion at this point. A Question of Integrity: Architecture Staff Report: “[I]t is unlikely that Rev. Barclay would recognize the current building as the home he and his wife occupied for over 20 years.” Site Footprint Not Original Original Roughly 60 percent of the façade perimeter is not part of the original home. Not Original Not Original Staff Report: “It is unlikely that Rev. Barclay would recognize the current building as the home he and his wife occupied for over 20 years.” Historic Association Historic Association: Rev. John Barclay • Pastor at Central Christian Church when LBJ was in the congregation. • Offered a prayer at the inauguration of LBJ/JFK (1961). Policy Questions for Consideration: • While Rev. Barclay, like many local leaders, knew LBJ, does this connection warrant historic designation? • If connection to LBJ is sufficient for historic designation, such a decision – when applied consistently – would likely result in designation (and tax exemption) for various other West Austin homes. There are five historic landmarks within a half‐mile of this property Condition: Lead Paint The property owners hired experts to conduct an environmental test of the original portion of the home, which confirmed that lead paint is present in the existing home. This has contributed to the property owner’s decision to seek to construct a new, less compromised home on the site. Historic Designation Criteria Code Criteria (Must Meet Two) 3009 Bowman Architecture Historic Association Archaeology Community Value Landscape Feature ✖ ? ✖ ✖ ✖ Recap Staff has indicated that 3009 Bowman “may” meet two criteria for historic designation related to Rev. John Barclay. However, the original structure has undergone significant changes, and staff states that …
Federal law (24 CFR part 35 and 40 CFR par 745) requires sellers and lessors of residential units constructed prior to 1978, except housing for the elderly or persons with disabilities (unless any child who is less than six year of age resides or is expected to reside in such housing) or any zero-bedroom dwelling to disclose and provide a copy of this report to new purchasers or lessees before they become obligated under a lease or sales contract. Property owners and sellers are also required to distribute an educational pamphlet approved by the United States environmental protection agency and include standard warning language in leases or sales contracts to ensure that parents have the information they need to protect children from lead- based paint hazards.

The XRF survey was performed within the current acceptable industry guidelines, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Guidelines Chapter 7 (revised 1997) and Texas regulations. During a visual assessment of the property A&W Environmental Services, LLP (License number: 2110404, Expiration date: February 17, 2020), observed that deteriorated paint was present at the property. In association with those findings, we performed a Lead-Based Paint (LBP) Inspection and have determined that all surfaces containing lead-based paint are intact and hence no stabilization plan is required. A&W Environmental Services, LLP used a Niton XLP300A X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) serial# 12249 with a Cd-109 sourced on August 2014 to sample paint for lead based paint at the property. Licensed Texas Lead Risk Assessor, Mohammad Alavi (License number: 2070687 - Expiration date: December 12, 2020) performed the inspection. If …
Here is a copy of the lead report that was done in March 2019 – there were 12 positive findings of lead; full report attached. The applicant has young children. Also, given the extensive level of remodeling of the older section of the home (which does not include the fact that the new addition is more than 50% of the house), I hope you might reconsider - - photos below of the exterior of the older portion of the home with new doors/windows in what appears to be slightly modified openings. I can’t imagine that the original home had an opening that would accommodate French doors with side windows. MJW.

As your report indicates, a significant addition to the home existed at the time of our purchase. Moreover, new windows and French doors were added to the older section of the home. As accurately stated in your report, the new addition is quite large compared to the older portions of the house. To compound things, because we suspected the use of lead paint, we hired experts to conduct an environmental test on the older section of the home. Our suspicion was confirmed in the report. We have two small children. Because of the extensive addition and the modifications to the exterior of the older portion of the property, we do not believe that historic designation is appropriate for this West Austin home. The Central Christian Church certainly is an appropriate place to recognize Pastor John Barclay and Lyndon B. Johnson’s participation in the church. As you can well imagine, there are hundreds of people who knew and were involved in LBJ’s life and times, who lived throughout Austin. We are sure that many of their homes and other sites have appropriately honored their connection to LBJ. In this particular case, given the modifications to the property, the condition of the house, and its location, we hope that you might reconsider the staff’s recommendation. Please accept this letter as our objection to the rezoning of our property to Historic.

A.2 - 1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET August 23, 2021 HLC DATE: July 26, 2021 PC DATE: CASE NUMBER: GF-21-10366 APPLICANT: Historic Landmark Commission HISTORIC NAME: Chrysler Air-Temp House COUNCIL DISTRICT: 7 WATERSHED: Shoal Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 2502 Park View Drive ZONING FROM: SF-2 to SF-2-H SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change from single family residence – standard lot (SF-2) district to single family residence – standard lot – Historic Landmark (SF-2-H) combining district zoning if the Commission believes that this house qualifies as a historic landmark and represents the entire proposed historic district.. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture, historical significance, community value. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: July 26, 2021: Initiated historic zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is beyond the bounds of the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984) but is contributing to the Air Conditioned Village National Register Historic District, currently pending before the State Board of Review. This case came before the Commission in June, 2020 for a full demolition. The applicant in the 2020 case reconsidered their application for full demolition and submitted plans for a partial demolition and retention of the character-defining features of this house; those plans were reviewed and approved by the Commission. The prior proposal would have preserved much of the street façade of the house, replacing deteriorated materials in kind or with a visually-compatible modern material, and an addition to the back in what promised to be a sensitive rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the house. The Commission initiated historic zoning on the house during the pendency of the preparation of those plans, and satisfied that the plans would preserve the character of the house, dropped the historic zoning case. Since that time, the original applicants sold the house to the current applicant, who is seeking a permit to demolish the house and build a new house in its place. One question before the Commission is whether this house represents an individual landmark-worthy designation, or whether it is simply contributing to the proposed National Register Historic District. If the Commission decides that this house qualifies individually as a historic landmark, then any changes to its exterior or site will require a Certificate of Appropriateness. If this house is contributing to the proposed National Register Historic A.2 - 2 District, then the Commission will have only advisory review over changes to the exterior or the …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS AUGUST 23, 2021 HR-2021-067051 1805 E. 3RD STREET HERRERA HOUSE B.1 – 1 Replace the front doors and paint the historic house, add a new window to an existing or new rear wall opening, and construct a 1-story rear addition. Previous restoration work was approved administratively. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project involves eight parts: 1) Replace the non-historic front doors with paneled partially glazed doors. 2) Replace some glazing in historic window sashes. 3) Replace the metal roof with composition shingles with a wood-shake profile. 4) Paint the house to match the historic color (yellow). 5) Possibly change window and door openings on the historic rear wall. 6) Replace a historic rear window with a new window with unknown sash material. 7) Construct an uncovered wood deck behind the rear (south) wall of the historic house. 8) Construct a 1-story rear addition. The addition is set back approximately 24’ from the front wall and has an unknown footprint. A flat-roofed hyphen likely clad in hardiplank connects the new construction to the historic house. The addition will likely be clad in board-and-batten and horizontal hardiplank siding and capped by a likely cross-gabled roof, with a slope, eave depth, and shingles matching those of the historic house. Windows are single-hung and fixed with an unknown sash material; paired sliding glass doors on the hyphen’s east wall provide access to the wood deck between the historic house and addition. ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Repair and Alterations One-story, L-plan, cross-gabled building; vertical board-and-batten siding; 4:4 wood-sash windows; shed porch with two entry doors; National Folk style. The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: General Standards 1.1 Do not remove intact historic material from the exterior of a building. 1.2 Always attempt repair first. Replacement should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary, and for the smallest area possible. 1.3 When historic material must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, replacement material should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. The proposed project repairs and retains historic wood siding, windows, and trim. Where replacement of boards or battens is necessary due to deterioration, replacements will match historic materials …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS AUGUST 23, 2021 HR-2021-115716 KOHN HOUSE 5312 SHOAL CREEK BLVD. B.3 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a low fence at the front property line and a detached 2-car garage behind the house at a pending landmark. 1) Construct a 36” tall weathering steel mesh fencing at the street. Supports along the length of the fence are metal posts. Limestone piers flank mesh gates at the sidewalk and driveway; the stone will have a sawn surface with parged joints. 2) Construct a detached 2-car garage behind the house. The proposed location, recessed to the northwest of the house and north of the historic guest house, was shown on the site plan reviewed by the Commission on April 26, 2021 in conjunction with other site modifications, though the garage design was not presented at that time. The garage has an asymmetrical, broken-pitch gable roof over the main volume, with a symmetrical gable over a rear portion. Roofing is standing-seam metal, and wall cladding is board-and-batten siding. Openings include paired overhead doors facing the driveway, solid doors at multiple locations, a sliding barn door on the side facing the guest house, steel and glass doors on the opposite side, and large multi-light steel windows wrapping the rear. ARCHITECTURE The Kohn House occupies a premier site in the Shoalmont Addition. Two lots wide, the expansive parcel extends from Shoal Creek Boulevard on the east to Shoal Creek on the west and is studded with mature oaks. The one-story house, eclectic in its design, is T-shaped, with a long side-gabled volume facing the street and a rear hipped-roof wing. A two-story square tower with a pyramidal roof is asymmetrically placed near the north end of the house. The house is predominantly clad in random ashlar limestone with quoins at the corners and a stone chimney; a portion of the rear elevation is clad in horizontal wood siding. Wrapping the southeast end of the house is a porch with square wood posts and curved brackets; its gable end has waney-edge siding. Varied fenestration includes multi-light casements, a bay window with a metal roof, round portholes, and 1:1 double-hung wood windows. To the rear of the house, the site also includes a side-gabled accessory building, clad in board-and-batten on the front under the full-width porch and horizontal wood siding on the other sides.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS AUGUST 23, 2021 C14H-1974-0015; HR-2021-116843 ELISABET NEY MUSEUM 304 E. 44TH STREET B.5 – 1 PROPOSAL In-kind structural repair of the front balcony. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS In-kind repair of rusting and delaminating steel lintels, a leaning stone column, and a cracked column capital at the front balcony, to include the following work: 1) Carpentry: Remove the railing and decking lumber. Preserve the decorative stars for reinstallation. Rebuild the railing and decking with new lumber to match following structural and masonry repairs. 2) Masonry: Remove and catalog the stone masonry above the top of the columns. Clean and repair the stones, as necessary. Repair cracks to the northeast column capital and place a grout pad on the southeast column. Reinstall salvaged stones in original locations following structural repairs. 3) Structural: Remove and replace the steel lintels, adding a reinforced coarse masonry grout beam between the columns and waterproofing to prevent future lintel deterioration. ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Repair and alterations The Elisabet Ney Museum, historically the home and studio of this renowned sculptor, is a flat-roofed building constructed of rusticated limestone. From the front, the porticoed main entrance leads to a lofty studio space, with a lower one-story reception room to the left, and to the right, a three-story stair tower and stepped back two-story volume that contains an exhibit room and retreat. Castellations punctuate the parapets of the tower, reception room, and two-story portion. 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: 1. General Standards Per Standards 1.1 and 1.2, the project will retain and reuse historic materials that must be dismantled to facilitate necessary structural repairs. Individual stones will be catalogued and returned to their original locations. 4. Exterior walls and trim The Parks and Recreation Department is working with an experienced mason familiar with the Elisabet Ney Museum who will employ careful techniques to remove, clean, and replace the stones in their original locations, using appropriate mortar. Summary The project meets the applicable standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION While an in-depth structural assessment has determined that the identified issues are not a life-safety concern, the Parks and Recreation Department seeks to move forward quickly with repairs. Final drawings from …
WJE Scope Briefing To be clear, the anticipated (subject to change) scope that our repair drawings will explain is as follows: 1. Remove all of the railing and decking lumber. Preserve the decorative stars. 2. Remove all of the stone masonry above the top of the columns. The stones should be cataloged so they may be returned to their original locations. 3. Clean and repair (i.e., crack repairs) as necessary all of the stones removed. 4. Remove the existing steel lintel. 5. Repair the northeast column capital cracks. 6. Place a ~2” grout pad on the southeast column. 7. Replace the steel lintel with a similar steel section. 8. Cast a reinforced coarse masonry grout beam spanning between the columns. 9. Reinstall the stone masonry around and above the cast beam. 10. Installation of appropriate waterproofing to prevent future lintel deterioration. 11. Construction of new lumber railing and decking. Please be sure than Brian understands that the masonry scope will include removal, cataloging, restoration, and reinstallation of essentially all of the masonry above the columns.
P u b l i c W o r k s D e p a r t m e n t Quality Management Division To: Christina Bies Project Coordinator Parks & Recreation Department, City of Austin Re: Elisabet Ney Museum 304 East 44th Street, Austin Texas, 78751 Existing Exterior Balcony Ms. Bies, April 19, 2021 This letter is in regard to the structural integrity of the existing elevated balcony. A site visit was conducted on April 7, 2021, to perform a structural observation of the exterior balcony located to the east of the main entrance. See photo A The existing building appears to be a stone structure, a full assessment of the building was not made at the time of our site visit. The existing balcony is located to the east of the main entrance of the museum. See photo B. The balcony floor system consists of wood floor joists that are supported by a double wood member beam at both supporting ends. See photos C and D. The joist sizes and supporting wood members were not measured during the site visit. There are two (2) steel lintels that support a low stone guard rail wall on along the south and east side of the balcony, the steel lintels are supported by stone columns. At the time of our site visit the two (2) steel lintels were rusted and were delaminated. See photos E and F. The stone column support located against the building along the east side of the balcony is leaning southward away from the building and a limestone block has split in the stone capital. See photos G and H. The structural integrity of the existing stone column capital and the two (2) steel lintels have been compromised, creating imminent hazard and danger to the health, safety and welfare of the public. The balcony is not to be accessed and the area needs to be roped off. It is my professional recommendation that this be addressed immediately to minimize any further damage. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me.
