In general, the new design focused on maintaining the scale of original homes in the district. The standards state, “The scale and massing of a new building are essential to maintaining a property or historic district’s distinctive character—more so than architectural style or decorative details. However, well-designed.” 2. LOCATION. The structure is located in line with other houses so that it does not visually overpower existing adjacent houses. 3. ORIENTATION. The orientation (front door faces street) is consistent with adjacent contributing structures. 4. SCALE. Massing of house reflects character of nearby contributing houses. 5. STYLE. Scale, proportions and massing are in keeping with nearby houses, while a replica style is avoided. (Standards state that designs in both traditional and modern styles can successfully achieve compatibility and differentiation with historic buildings.) 6. WINDOWS. Windows proportions, size and profile look to nearby contributing structures. 7. PORCHES. A porch is incorporated, and the front door faces the street, to match the pattern in the district. 8. GARAGES. The garage is placed behind the house to minimize the visual prominence. Historic Design Standards 2607 McCallum

2.A – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION STAFF UPDATE ON RELOCATION ISSUE JUNE 28, 2021 C14H-2000-0012 STANLEY HOMESTEAD OUTBUILDING 1809 NEWTON ST. PROJECT BACKGROUND The Historic Landmark Commission approved a Certificate of Appropriateness on February 27, 2017 for relocation of a historic landmark, the Stanley Homestead Outbuilding, within its site. This approval was specifically based on an understanding that the stones would be numbered and reassembled in the exact same configuration. In a post on LinkedIn on May 20, 2021, the former owner of the building posted a link to a 2017 video, which appears to show demolition rather than relocation of the building. Commissioners viewed the video at the May 24, 2021 Commission meeting and voted to request that staff pursue legal remedies. Video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NYY1-WMrucQ Prior Commission action: See posted agendas, minutes, and backup at http://austintexas.gov/cityclerk/boards_commissions/meetings/31_1.htm. • February 13, 2017 Certificate of Appropriateness Review Committee. • February 27, 2017 Commission meeting, Item B.2, application to move the stone outbuilding 20 feet to the west (towards Newton St.). The Commission approved relocation of the outbuilding in accordance with the applicant’s proposal to number stones, dismantle, and rebuild the building. • November 19, 2018 Commission meeting, Item B.3, application to construct two new houses and move the outbuilding again. The case was postponed to December 17, 2018. • December 17, 2018 Commission meeting, Item B.3, application for new construction without a second relocation of the outbuilding. This request was approved. UPDATE Since the May Historic Landmark Commission meeting, staff took photographs of the Stanley Homestead Outbuilding; pulled photographs from the historic zoning file; examined prior code compliance reports, which include dated photographs; and consulted other online sources. Comparison of the photographs shows the following: • While the stonework bears a similar rusticated surface and coursed ashlar pattern, the exact sizes and placement of the stones before and after relocation of the outbuilding does not match. • There are two clear departures in the overall design. The gable on the main (south) elevation now has a wood beam rather than smooth stonework, and stonework extends higher to fill in what was an open loft. On the west side, a window has been added. • Between the relocation in 2017 and a code compliance inspection in 2018, an enclosure was built on the front of the building. An addition on the east side does not appear in available dated photographs. Historic Preservation Office staff …

While the overall form of the original building is consistent with Roessner's design ethos, this particular example does not appear to display the level of detail that defines his other residential work. The roof and some windows have been replaced and the roof pitch potentially altered; the existing standing-seam metal roof was installed after the period of significance. A ca. 1967 secondary unit is immediately adjacent the original and connected by a walkway; this site change may have altered the original building’s relationship to the topography as designed by Roessner. Both appear to be missing materials present in Roessner’s extant midcentury residential work elsewhere in Austin (e.g., specialty glass, exposed rafters, handmade metalwork and brick, natural limestone, indoor-outdoor Saltillo tile, and other textural accent materials).

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JUNE 28, 2021 C14H-2010-0009; HR-2021-041008 VOSS HOUSE 1501 NORTHWOOD ROAD B.3 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a rear and second-level addition. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish detached garage. 2) Construct a rear addition. The addition extends the back corner of the house by 5’-1” to the south and 8’-5 ½” to the west. Another building, 16’-5” by 25’-2”, is connected by an open porch in a dog-trot configuration. The additions have cross-gabled, standing-seam metal roofs and are clad in horizontal wood siding. Windows are 1:1 light and are of similar size and proportions to the windows on the house. Windows and doors opening onto the porch are steel-framed. 3) Construct a second-story addition to the house. The addition consists of a shed-roofed dormer on the west roof slope and a side-gabled volume near the back of the house, set back from the Harris Blvd. (east) side. These elements also have standing-seam metal roofing and horizontal wood siding. Windows are 1:1 light, arranged singly or in groupings, and are of similar or smaller size but the same proportions as the windows on the house. ARCHITECTURE The Voss House faces Northwood Road; however, the following description from the landmark nomination considers the Harris Blvd. side as the primary elevation. The house is a one-story, rectangular-plan, side-gabled frame bungalow with a partial-width front-gabled independent porch on battered posts and stone piers with a brick cap and a vertical baluster railing. Fenestration consists of 1:1 wood-frame, wood-sash units in single and multiple configurations; the entry is flanked with sidelights. A battered stone chimney pierces the north side gable of the house. The garage is not mentioned in the landmark nomination. It has a low-pitched pyramidal roof and is clad in board-and- batten siding. The garage is located to the southwest of the house at the rear corner of the property, with a modern overhead garage door facing Harris Blvd. While the 1961 Sanborn Fire Insurance map shows a garage at the same location, it has a different footprint.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JUNE 28, 2021 2021-058680 PR HYDE PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 4006 1/2 AVENUE B B.3– 1 Construct a two-story rear addition to a one-story contributing building. Replace existing windows and doors. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW 1) Partially demolish rear of residence. 2) Construct a two-story addition. The proposed addition is set back approximately 15’ from the front wall of the house. It has a compound gabled roof and horizontal wood siding. Single and paired 1:1 wood windows are regularly spaced throughout. 3) Replace existing non-original windows with 1:1s. Replace non-original door. The existing building is a one-story Craftsman bungalow with horizontal wood siding, 4:6 paired and single windows, a partial-width porch supported by tapered columns, and a gabled roof with exposed rafter tails and triangular knee braces at eaves. The Hyde Park Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.2 Respect the historic style of existing structures and retain their historic features, including character-defining elements and building scale. 1.3 Respect each contributing structure as an example of the architecture of its time. Do not make alterations that have no historic basis, such as the addition of gingerbread trim to a 1920s bungalow. Do not give an existing contributing structure a “historic” appearance it never had. 1.4 Repair deteriorated historic features and architectural elements. The proposed addition retains some aspects of the building’s historic style but changes its scale. It is differentiated in scale and detailing, as the design has been amended per Architectural Review Committee feedback to remove inappropriate decorative details and add a horizontal trim between old and new construction. The proposed cladding will match the existing building’s horizontal siding. 3.1 Retain the historic facade of a house in terms of door and window placement and exterior wall materials. Repair damaged or deteriorated exterior wall materials where reasonably possible. If replacement of exterior wall materials is necessary, choose a material identical in size, profile, and appearance as the historic material. 3.2 Do not enlarge, alter, or relocate single doorways on the façade of the house. Retain and repair an original entry door. In cases where replacement of an original entry door is required, or where the house does not have the original door, choose a replacement door that is compatible in terms of design and appearance …
