A.4 – 1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE NUMBER: TBD HLC DATE: October 25, 2021 PC DATE: APPLICANT: Historic Landmark Commission (owner-opposed) HISTORIC NAME: Zakrison-Sandoval House WATERSHED: Waller Creek NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: East Cesar Chavez ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 1204 E. 6th Street ZONING CHANGE: TOD-NP to TOD-NP-H COUNCIL DISTRICT: 3 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff finds that the house meets the criteria for landmark designation and thus recommends the proposed zoning change from TOD-NP (transit-oriented development – neighborhood plan combining district zoning) to TOD-NP-H (transit-oriented development – neighborhood plan – historic landmark combining district zoning). However, the house is in poor condition, which the Commission should consider in determining whether to recommend historic zoning. Repair of underlying issues would require considerable removal and replacement of historic building materials, which would affect the house’s architectural integrity and ability to convey its significance under that criterion. Should the Commission choose to release the permit, the staff recommendation is to require completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture and historical associations HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The East Austin Historic Resources Survey (Hardy Heck Moore, Inc., 2016) recommends this house as a potential landmark as well as a contributing resource to the potential East Sixth Street Historic District, which is recommended eligible for local or National Register designation.

QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture, Historical Associations, and Community Value: HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: October 25, 2021: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is beyond the bounds of the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984) and has never been included in a city survey.

The house is a wing-and-gable plan ranch-style house with features of mid-century Modern design. It has a brick veneer exterior with weeping mortar, a relatively rare architectural feature in Austin. The original door and windows have been replaced. The house now has casement windows which fit into the original window openings and do not materially alter the feeling of the original construction. The house was built by Walter Carrington, a prolific homebuilder in central Texas, who began his career in Austin in the early 1950s. Carrington waw born in San Angelo, Texas in 1924 and passed away in Austin in 2007. He was a graduate of the University of Texas and first went to work with Nelson Puett, a local real estate agent and developer, before starting his own home A.5 - 2 building company. Many of his homes, such as this one, are located in the Northwest Hills neighborhoods of Austin, but he was also responsible for most of the houses in University Hills, east of IH-35 during the same period. Carrington was a very open-minded builder: he did not engage in the still-then …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 HR-2021-115725 CLARKSVILLE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1104 TOYATH STREET C.1 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new residence with carport, pool, and roof deck. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) The proposed new building is 3 stories in height. It is clad in vertical fiber cement siding and capped with a metal roof. Fenestration includes single-hung and fixed windows and a horizontally glazed front door. A roof deck with horizontal metal railing sits atop the house, accessible by a spiral staircase at the side elevation; the staircase is partially enclosed by a transparent wood screen. Its full-width front porch is supported by boxed columns and the front and rear gables that comprise its compound roofline are accented by triangular knee braces. 2) Construct a deck and pool behind the main house. 3) Construct a retaining wall at the rear of the house. 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 building is set back approximately 25’. This property is adjacent to the Lawson House, a historic landmark, and proposed new construction may overpower it due to the height difference between the two buildings. 2. Orientation The proposed new building has a consistent orientation with the rest of the buildings on the block. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is three stories plus a roof deck—much taller than the single-story contributing buildings on the block. However, due to the slope of the lot, the first floor is not visible from the street. Its complex massing is also at odds with the relatively simple contributing homes of Clarksville. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s design is strongly vertical, which does not reflect the more horizontal proportions of the modest contributing houses on the block. 5. Design and style The proposed design is somewhat compatible in its inclusion of a front porch, its front-facing gables, its siding material, and its relatively rhythmic fenestration patterns. The decorative brackets added to the gables are not appropriate for its modern style. The building is less compatible in its scale, massing, and proportions; the rear portion of the house appears somewhat overpowering. 6. Roofs The gabled roofline …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 25, 2021 CASE NUMBER OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1400 MOHLE DRIVE C.11 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new building PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed new residence is two stories in height, clad in stucco. It has a low, hipped roof with deep eaves clad in standing-seam metal. Its aluminum divided-light windows are regularly placed. Divided sidelights and a transom window surround the partially glazed front door, and a flat-roofed awning shelters the entryway. The secondary street frontage includes a projecting bay window, stucco chimney, and garage door. The rear elevation contains a second-floor terrace with patio beneath. 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 new building appears to be set back appropriately from the street. 2. Orientation The proposed new building is oriented toward the street, with the garage loading at the secondary street frontage, consistent with the existing detached garage. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is two stories in height, while most nearby contributing buildings appear to be one or one and one-half stories in height. There are few contributing buildings on this part of Mohle Drive. The building’s simple massing is appropriate to the district. 4. Proportions The building’s proportions are appropriate at the main façade, though the Oakhurst Avenue elevation may appear somewhat monolithic from the street. 5. Design and style The proposed new building is appropriately differentiated from nearby contributing buildings by its stucco cladding and modern window configurations. Its rhythmic façade enhances compatibility when viewed from Mohle Drive. 6. Roofs The simple roof form complies with the design standards. 7. Exterior walls The stucco cladding is appropriate to the building’s style and helps to differentiate it from contributing buildings. 8. Windows and doors The Mohle Drive façade’s simple, rhythmic fenestration is appropriate and compatible with the district. The Oakhurst Avenue façade is somewhat compatible, with the exceptions of the projecting bay window and long vertical window. 9. Porches While the rear deck and patio are not found on nearby contributing buildings in the district, they are visible only from secondary elevations. 10. Chimneys The proposed chimney is clad in …
