C.3 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 26, 2020 HR-20-144852 1700 W. 32ND STREET OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1952 house and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish the existing building and salvage stone for reuse. 2) Construct a new primary building. The proposed 2-story house will be clad with salvaged masonry and stucco. It has a metal roof with compound roofline and varying slopes. The north elevation features a partial-width flat-roofed porch with steel columns, covered entryways, and an inset balcony. Its irregularly placed windows are undivided and fixed. The south elevation contains a similar covered entryway, a protruding picture window, and a single central undivided window at the second floor. The east elevation features a full-width porch with steel columns, sliding doors, and flat-roofed dormer with fixed windows. The west elevation has a shallower roofline with flat- and shed-roofed dormers, with fixed windows of varying sizes scattered throughout. 3) Construct a detached auxiliary building. The proposed 2-story garage apartment has a metal roof with “wounded dove” roofline. It is clad in stucco and features fixed irregularly placed windows to match the primary building. Its east elevation contains a large flat-roofed dormer, while its south elevation contains a double entryway covered by a flat metal roof with steel supports. ARCHITECTURE 1700 W. 32nd Street is a single-story Ranch-style house with an L-shaped plan, a cross-gabled and hipped roof with deep eaves, and coursed ashlar masonry veneer. Its main elevation features large multi-light metal picture windows, while its secondary elevations contain multi-light metal casement windows. RESEARCH The house at 1700 W. 32nd Street was constructed in 1952 by Jack Birge, who also constructed the building next door at 1702 W. 32nd Street. Its first occupants were Mark and Bertha Wentz, who lived in the home until at least 1959. The Wentzes moved to Austin in 1954 after Mark Wentz was appointed as a fire commissioner to the State Board of Insurance Commissioners. As Fire Commissioner, Wentz was involved in a series of reassignments, internal investigations, and statewide oversight that spanned the mid-1950s, as Governor Price Daniel proposed sweeping reorganizations of the State Board of Insurance Commissioners that would remove his predecessor’s appointments from the board—including Wentz. The Wentzes lived in the home until at least 1959. By 1964, it had become the Peter Pan School, which …

NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #1: WINDOW DETAILING The board expressed concern about the articulation of windows in the facades. They do not like windows that are in the same plane as the exterior cladding because it looks cheap. All windows will either be set back from the exterior surface with a casing, or protruding out from wall as a deep bay window. This will achieve depth and create detail shadows on the facades. Typical window casing, window set back from exterior cladding Bay window 6 October 5, 2020 Jefferson HouseMurray Legge Architecture LLC NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #2: DORMER SHAPE The board expressed their disapproval of the three box dormers of different sizes facing Jefferson Street. They were deemed out of character for the neighborhood. MLA revised the dormers by eliminating one, and combining the remaining two in a single traditional dormer with a shed roof. Revised Dormer with single shed roof 7 October 5, 2020 Jefferson HouseMurray Legge Architecture LLC NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD CONCERN #3: REUSE OF STONE The board expressed the desire to see the stone cladding of the existing house reused in some way. MLA proposes to use the stone as a low landscape element as a planter or low dividing wall that will be visible to the public. Behind it, a full hight fence will provide privacy from the busy street and be softened by climbing vines. The final extent of the stone planters will be determined after a material inventory of the existing masony is calculated.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HR-2020-146817 1703 WOODLAWN BOULEVARD C.6 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1929 house and construct a new house. ARCHITECTURE The existing house is an L-plan Spanish Colonial Revival-styled stuccoed frame house with hints of Art Deco detailing, especially in the front door; metal-framed windows; raised parapet at the entry. RESEARCH The house was built in 1929 for Nick Ferris and his wife, Bolling, both of whom were involved in the operation of downtown’s Marie Antoinette Shop for ladies’ fashions. Nick Ferris was the son of S. Ferris, a Lebanese immigrant who first settled in Manor and moved to Austin, where he established several businesses, including S. Ferris Sons, a dry goods store on E. 6th Street, and several clothing stores, including the Marie Antoinette, known for years as one of Austin’s most upscale ladies’ clothing stores. Nick Ferris would travel the world to bring the latest fashions to the women of Austin. Bolling Ferris, an interior decorator, was responsible for the design of the new Marie Antoinette Shop on Congress Avenue in 1935. Nick and Bolling Ferris lived in this house until around 1943. Their home on Woodlawn Boulevard was distinctive for its style in a neighborhood otherwise full of Colonial and Tudor Revival houses. Edna Hammerman, the proprietor of a prominent insurance adjusting firm in Austin, rented the house in the mid-1940s. Thomas J. and Glenda Prather then purchased the house around 1946, and lived here until around 1964. Thomas Prather was an accountant for the State Highway Department who later became the director of the Texas Congress of Parents and Teachers. Glenda Prather was an artist. STAFF COMMENTS The house was listed with no priority for research in the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984), and was listed as non-contributing to the Old West Austin National Register Historic District. The applicant has furnished photographs depicting the poor condition of the existing house. Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house may meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The house is a very good example of Spanish Colonial Revival residential architecture, somewhat of an anomaly in this section of West Austin. The house maintains a high degree of integrity and may rise to the level of architectural significance. b. Historical association. The house …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Change roofline to create gable at main elevation. 2) Add fiber cement board-and-batten siding to gable end. 3) Replace asbestos shingle siding with fiber cement lap siding. 4) Reconfigure garage door from two bays to one and add a new garage door. ARCHITECTURE One-story side-gabled residence clad in asbestos shingle siding. It has a partial-width front porch, 1:1 mulled and single windows, and a front-facing two-car garage. RESEARCH The house at 1703 W. 32nd Street was built in 1952 by Raymond Lee Burnett and his wife Marjorie. Raymond Burnett was an electrician with Fox-Schmidt, a plumbing, heating, and electrical contractor. Later in his career, Burnett also served on the Austin Fire Safety Board. The Burnetts lived in the home until at least 1969. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate new construction projects in National Register historic districts. Applicable standards include: 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. The house’s asbestos siding will be removed, and its roofline altered. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction shall not destroy historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment. The siding replacement is compatible with the existing historic structure. While many historic-age buildings in the area feature a front gable, the other proposed modifications may change the relationships of existing façade elements to each other without being immediately differentiable from the building’s historic form. 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall be undertaken in such a manner that if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. In order to reverse the roofline changes, a significant amount of work would he required; however, the remainder of the building’s form would be minimally impaired.

The ca. 1948 house at 1204 Alta Vista Avenue is a one-story, L-plan frame house with a partial-width inset porch. Fenestration consists of single and double 1:1 windows with Colonial Revival-styled 6:6 wooden screens. RESEARCH The house at 815 Rutherford Place was built around 1930 by Fred W. Sassman, the proprietor of a dry-cleaning business who later became a tailor. Fred Sassman and his wife lived in this house until around 1936. The house was vacant for a short period of time before being purchased by attorney John C. Butler and his wife, Ruby. John C. Butler passed away in 1963; Ruby Butler continued to live here after his death (there is a newspaper article dating from 1966 about their son that references this house as their home), but given current limitations on research, it is not possible to determine how much longer Ruby Butler lived in this house. John C. and Ruby Butler built the house at 1204 Alta Vista Avenue on the rear of their lot in 1948, and held it as a rental property. For the first ten years (until about 1958), the house was rented by Clarence and Anna Mae Waters. Clarence Waters was in the food service industry. After returning from duty in World War II, he became a manager of one of Harry Akin’s Night Hawk Restaurants. Immediately after beginning his job with Night Hawk, and before moving into this house, the city directory shows him living at the location of the old Night Hawk at South Congress and Riverside Drive. He and Anna Mae, who worked as a hostess at the Night Hawk, moved into this house, where they lived until around 1958. A newspaper article from 1954 shows Clarence Waters as associated with one of the restaurants in the new Terrace Motor Hotel on South Congress Avenue; by 1957, he was the sales manager for Polar Ice Cream.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION OCTOBER 26, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0395 910 WEST ELIZABETH STREET D.10 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, front-gabled rock veneered frame house with a rear frame addition; symmetrical composition consisting of a central doorway with a front-gabled entry hood, and a single 6:6 window on each side of the door; the tympanum of the front gable is sheathed in wood planks following the contour of the gable roofline. RESEARCH The house was built in 1937 by John S. Minyard and his wife, Gertrude, who lived here until around 1943. John S. Minyard was listed as a carpenter in the city directories and as a contractor in general construction in the 1940 U.S. Census report. They lived in El Paso in 1935. John S. Minyard died in Littlefield, Texas in 1948; Gertrude Minyard died at the home of her son in Galveston in 1950. After a short period of tenancy by a renter, the house was purchased by Emma Anderson, a widow, in the late 1940s. Emma Anderson had no occupation listed in the city directories and lived here until around 1950. The house was then a rental property again through the 1950s. John Diaz, who had no occupation listed in the city directories, was listed as the owner of the property in 1959. STAFF COMMENTS The house is beyond the bounds of any City survey to date. Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The house is a nice example of a stone-veneered house that characterizes some Austin residential building materials in the first half of the 20th century, but otherwise displays no architectural significance. b. Historical association. The house was built by a carpenter/general contractor, John S. Minyard, who lived here until around 1943; in the late 1940s, it was the home of a widow. There do not appear to be significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The house was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The house does not possess a unique location, physical characteristic, or significant feature that contributes to the character, image, or cultural identity of the city, the neighborhood, or a particular demographic group. e. …
