HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS JULY 26, 2021 CASE NUMBER WEST LINE NATIONAL REGISTER DISTRICT 613 WEST LYNN STREET C.8 - 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a second-story addition, expand the basement to usable space, construct new rear two-story ADU with carport. 1) The applicant proposes to construct a new front-gabled, second-story frame addition to a one-story front-gabled bungalow. The proposed addition will be set approximately 15 feet back from the existing front porch and will be wider than the existing house. The proposed addition will have a combination of ship lap and stucco siding, and a standing seam metal roof. 2) The applicant further proposes the construction of a rear two-story ADU, which will be rectangular in plan and appearance, with a stucco finish and a deck above the carport. Fenestration in the ADU will be metal-framed plate glass. 3) The applicant also proposes to expand the basement area to usable space. This proposal will not be visible not the public. 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 additions 1. Location Evaluation: The proposed addition is set 15 feet back from the front of the house, and complies with the design standards. The proposed ADU is in the back yard and complies with the design standards. 2. Scale, massing, and height Evaluation. The proposed addition overwhelms the original house and therefore does not comply with the design standards. The proposed ADU is compatible with the scale, massing, and height of the contributing house. 3. Design and style Evaluat6ion: The proposed addition is front-gabled and uses fenestration patterns and materials that are somewhat compatible with the existing house. PROPERTY EVALUATION COMMITTEE FEEDBACK The house is contributing to the West Line National Register Historic District. The Architectural Review Committee noted that the applicant had made progress in what is a very large addition to the house more compatible by adjusting the fenestration patterns, exterior wall materials, and visibility from the street. The Committee did not provide any additional feedback on the proposed ADU. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Release the permit upon completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package, consisting of 8.5 x 11” photographs of all elevations printed on photographic paper, a dimensioned sketch …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-2021-079768; GF-2021-086716 1308 ALTA VISTA AVENUE D.1 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Partially demolish and modify a ca. 1935 residence by altering the existing roofline to construct a roof deck; removing and adding windows and doors with fiberglass, wood, and vinyl units; repairing siding; and enclosing walkway and porte- cochère with storefront assemblies. Two-story Colonial Revival house clad in brick with 6:6 wood windows, full-width front porch with flat and gabled roof supported by boxed columns, recessed entryway with decorative pilasters, and arched porte-cochère. The house at 1308 Alta Vista Avenue was constructed in or before 1935 by Alden and Mabel Davis. Alden Davis was a businessman who managed the auto supply division at the Walter Tips Company, eventually becoming a member of the board of directors and vice-president of the enterprise. His wife, Mabel Davis, was a civic leader who founded, led, and participated in many charitable and educational endeavors throughout her long tenure in the home. Best known for her enthusiasm for gardening, Davis helped to found and manage Austin’s garden club circuit, opening her home to club members for events and regular meetings from the time it was constructed until her death. She served as Texas’ state chairman for roadside beautification and as a member of the Parks board, along with other positions of honor. The rose garden at Zilker Botanical Gardens is named for Davis, in honor of her contributions as chairman and founder of the Austin Area Garden Center, Inc. In her joint role as chairman of the Botanical Garden’s building committee, she worked with City Council and local architect Hugo Kuehne to construct the Austin Area Garden Center at Zilker Botanical Gardens. According to the City’s Parks and Recreation Department and Zilker Botanical Garden Conservancy: [In 1954,] six Austin Garden Clubs requested permission from the City to erect a Garden Center on city property. Mrs. Mabel Davis lead the effort with founding clubs including the Violet Crown Garden Club, the Men’s Garden Club (now the Garden Club of Austin), Wilshire Area Garden Club, the Austin Women’s Federation Garden Group (now The Garden G.A.N.G.), Heart of the Hills Garden Club, and Western Hills Garden Club (now West Lake Hills Garden Club). [In 1955,] The City of Austin accepted the idea and in April of 1956, the group filed articles of incorporation with the Texas Secretary …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-21-093159 1173 SAN BERNARD STREET D.10 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1929 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Two-story, irregular-plan, hipped-roof, frame house with a partial-width, front-gabled, infilled front porch with a Craftsman- style glass transom in the tympanum; hopper windows have infilled the front porch; other fenestration has been replaced; exterior wall materials have been replaced.. The house is related to the Olivet Baptist Church, and was apparently built as the parsonage for the church, which was established around the corner in 1928 by Mrs. Beulah Murphy, who, with her husband Andrew, lived just to the south of this house. The first full-time pastor of Olivet was Rev. Joseph H. Harrington, who with his wife, Lela, lived in this house from the time of its construction in 1929 until around 1950. Very little information is available on Rev. Harrington, and he apparently left Austin around 1950. Olivet Baptist Church remains in the neighborhood, but the original church building has been replaced. Olivet apparently hosted classes and conferences in the 1960s, but does not appear to have been a major force in social change in Austin during the historic period. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property would be contributing to a potential San Bernard Street historic district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity in that the form of the house remains, but the front porch has been enclosed, windows replaced, exterior wall materials have been replaced, and the house has a standing-seam metal roof. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is a Prairie style two-story house that is unusual or this neighborhood. That it was likely built as a parsonage for the adjacent Olivet Baptist Church figures into the evaluation of the house as a center for church activities which dictated the size and scale of the house. b. Historical association. The house appears to have been built in 1929 as the parsonage for the newly-established Olivet Baptist Church. From the time of construction until around 1950, the house was occupied by the first pastor of Olivet, Rev. Joseph Harrington. Not much is known of Rev. Harrington at this time, and he apparently left Austin around 1950. c. …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-2021-092644 3703 MEADOWBANK DRIVE D.11 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct an addition and remodel a ca. 1966 residence and 1987 pool cabana. ARCHITECTURE Two-story symmetrical Colonial Revival house with hipped roof and brick cladding. Its full-width integral porch and second-floor balcony are supported by Classical columns. Ground-floor windows are 6:6, while second-floor fenestration comprises glazed 4-pane French doors. Wood shutters surround all doors and windows. The pool cabana at the rear of the lot features matching columns, full-height multi-light windows with fan lights above, and a metal mansard roof. It was constructed after the period of significance and does not contribute to the property’s historic character. RESEARCH The house at 3703 Meadowbank Drive was built in 1966 for Franklin W. Denius, decorated World War II veteran and renowned University of Texas sponsor. At 19, Denius fought in the Battle of Mortain in 1944 as an infantry staff sergeant, holding a vital position for the Allies against 40,000 Nazi troops. His foresight and innovation helped to create a turning point in the war after the Normandy landings, forever changing history. After Mortain, Denius participated in the capture of Aachen and the Battle of the Bulge; his honors include four Silver Stars, two Purple Hearts, a Presidential Citation, the Belgian Croix de Guerre, and Knight of the Legion of Honor—the highest awarded in France, according to Denius’ obituary. He is touted as the tenth most decorated World War II veteran by some sources. After his Army service, Denius graduated from the University of Texas School of Law in 1949, beginning his career at the firm of Looney and Clark, where he later became partner. By 1976, Denius had opened his own practice. He specialized in oil and gas law, becoming president of the Southern Union Company later in his career, but also worked as a business consultant for President Lyndon B. Johnson, with whom he became friends. Denius’ 2018 obituary describes him as “a Texas giant, a man of destiny and civic and community impact” as it details his lifelong civic engagement: At one time or another Frank served as President of the Austin United Way, The Longhorn Club, The Headliner's Club, and was selected by the Austin Chamber of Commerce as the Outstanding Young Man of Austin in 1959. From 1957-1961, Frank was a member of the Texas Legislature Constitutional Revision Committee. …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-21-095546 3004 LAFAYETTE AVENUE D.12 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1939 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story, wing-and-gable plan, frame cottage with synthetic siding; single 1:1 fenestration; partial-width inset porch on ornamental metal supports. The house was built in 1939 by Walter Staehely, a local insurance broker and real estate developer. The first owners and occupants were Clarence and Doris Johnson, who lived here until around 1943. Clarence Johnson was an accountant for the State Highway Department. From 1943 until 1952, the house was owned and occupied by Curtis and Gladys Johnson. Curtis Johnson is believed to have been the brother of Clarence Johnson. Curtis Johnson was an assistant auditor for Travis County for many years, starting with the office when there were only two employees. Curtis and Gladys Johnson then sold the house to a long-time widow, Thelma Weidlein, who had previously worked as a private secretary, but who had no occupation listed in the city directories; she lived here until her death in 1976. PROPERTY EVALUATION Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building has had synthetic siding applied at an unknown date, which has compromised its integrity of materials. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria, but would likely be contributing to a potential local historic district: a. Architecture. The building is a traditional type of house, fairly common for its late 1930s construction date; it does not appear to be architecturally significant. b. Historical association. The property was the home of a state accountant, an assistant county auditor, and a widow, none of whom appear to have had historical significance. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property 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. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Encourage rehabilitation and adaptive reuse, then relocation over demolition, but release of the permit upon completion of a City …
3004 Lafayette Avenue Summary: The owners/occupants of 3004 Lafayette Ave are requesting demolition of the two bedroom, one bath home so they may build a new home more suitable for their family of four. They want to build a single family home that is compatible in both scale and style to other homes in the Cherrywood Neighborhood they love, taking their design cues from neighboring homes including classic shapes, a welcoming front porch, one and a half story design to reduce massing, roof corbels, and detailed window and house trim. We will also provide architectural drawings of the new home. The existing home, while maintaining some original architectural elements, is largely unoriginal, having been poorly enlarged and remodeled at some point without permits in the 1980s or 1990s (see photos). There is new, unpainted Hardie Plank siding on the home at the area of the addition, a clear delineation where the old oak flooring stopped and the new pine flooring begins, a seam in the ceiling at the same location of the addition, and evidence of a difference in the foundation piers where the home was enlarged. While some of the wood windows are original, they are basic in design and have decayed and rotted to such a degree that they would all require replacement. The electrical system was upgraded at some point without permits, and is not to code. The front and rear doors have been replaced with newer, run-of-the-mill metal and plastic doors. Structurally the house is a mess, with rot from water intrusion and holes in the floor where the crawlspace beneath may be seen. The exterior shutters are plastic, sized improperly, and are simply drilled into the siding, not operable. The owners believe the lack of detailing on the home and poor maintenance by previous owners makes it a poor example of the period in which it was built, and the home would be grossly cost-ineffective to repair. Additionally, the owners will recycle the wood flooring and appliances from the old home and will conscientiously ensure that the new home is an enhancement to the neighborhood. Plastic Shutters Rotted Windows Rotted Windows Rotted Windows Un-permitted Electrical Addition with Hardie Siding Hardie Siding and Metal Door More Hardie, Other Side of House Flooring at Addition 1980s/1990s Ceiling Seam at Addition 1980s/1990s
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 GF-21-103669 2502 PARK VIEW DRIVE D.13 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1954 house. 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. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story, rectangular -plan, shallow front-gabled mid-century Modern-styled wood frame house with rectangular asbestos panels set into a metal framing system on the front and back, and wood siding on secondary elevations. The house has fixed-sash and horizontal-sliding fenestration with a row of clerestory windows bridging the space between the asbestos panel section and the slightly-pitched roof, which is notable for its deep eaves. There is a pop-up, shed roofed section in the middle of the roof, that opens onto a side elevation. The house has a shed-roofed double carport with exposed beams and columns; the carport figures prominently into the impression of the house from the street and has ornamental brick walls, further identifying the house as an example of mid-century Modern design. The house is located in the “Air Conditioned Village” of northwest Austin, and would be contributing to a potential historic district encompassing the remaining homes of the 22 originally built as demonstration houses to study and promote the feasibility of central air conditioning in moderately-sized and moderately-priced homes. Austin’s Air Conditioned Village was one of and the largest of several demonstration projects throughout the country in the early 1950s, at a time when central air conditioning was more common in commercial buildings and high-end residences, than in more modest houses, mostly due …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-21-098969 3400 HILLVIEW ROAD D.14 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1940 house. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Two-story, rectangular-plan, side-gabled brick veneered house with elements of Monterrey Revival style with its second- story, partial width screened porch across the front, and segmental-arched sunporch opening on the ground floor; single and paired 6:6 fenestration; single-leaf entry door with sidelights. The house features textured brick in subtle patterns. The house was built in 1940 by Whalen (or Wayland) C. Rivers and his wife, LaRuth, who lived here until around 1946. Wayland Rivers was an officer in the Elgin Standard Brick Company, manufacturers of high quality brick for residential and commercial construction in central Texas. Rivers was also in the grocery business before building this house in West Austin. The next owners and occupants were John W. and Dorothy Shivers, who lived here from around 1946 until around 1950. John W. Shivers was a timelock inspector for the Yale Lock Company for many years. Around 1953, the house was rented by W.J. Murray, Jr. and his wife, Josephine; they lived here until around 1958. Murray was a long-time employee of the Texas Railroad Commission, and had been in the oil business in Houston. He was serving as chair of the commission at the time that he and Jo rented this house. He came under scrutiny for the money he made while serving on the Commission, but was exonerated in 1963 of any wrongdoing. He was the first petroleum engineer to serve on the Commission, which oversees oil and gas regulations in Texas. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property is beyond the bounds of any City survey to date. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of its architectural type, and is constructed in brick, which make it unusual – most houses of t his type are frame. The house conveys architectural significance as a rare example of Monterrey style in Austin, and also, having been built by a principal in the Elgin Brick Company, contains some textured brick which adds to its possible architectural significance. b. Historical association. The house is associated …
D.2 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-2021-084227 916 BOULDIN AVENUE PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1936 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story Craftsman-style side-gabled frame cottage with a prominent battered brick chimney to the right of the principal entry; the chimney has random stones to give a rustic effect. Beside the random stone placement in the brick chimney, the house also has some Tudor Revival elements, including a steeply-pitched gablet above the front door with false half- timbering in the tympanum, and a small front-facing gablet in the roof to the left of the front entry. Fenestration consists of single and paired 1:1 windows with wooden screens. RESEARCH STAFF COMMENTS The house appears to have been built around 1936. The first occupants were John T McCutcheon, Jr. and his wife Victoria, who rented this house until around 1948. John T. McCutcheon, Jr. was a clerk at the city abbatoir, the city’s meat processing plant open to area ranchers to sell meat. The house was vacant for a short period of time before being rented then owned by James S. and Mary J. Ramsey, who lived here at least through the end of the 1950s. James S. and Mary Jane Ramsey were distributors of Watkins Products, a local flavoring extract company that is still in business as a work-from-home company with a wide range of products, including flavoring extracts, balms, salves, and ointments. The house was determined contributing to the potential Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Historic District. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that while the house may qualify for its architecture, it lacks the significant historical associations necessary for designation as a historic landmark. a. Architecture. The house is a typical 1930s style Craftsman cottage with Tudor Revival ornamentation; its prominent exterior chimney on the front of the of the house makes it notable in this neighborhood and may qualify the house for landmark designation based upon its architecture. b. Historical association. The house lacks significant historical associations. The occupants were a book-keeper at the city abbatoir and a distributor of flavoring extracts, neither of whom would fulfill the requirements for significant historical associations under the landmark designation criteria. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS JULY 26, 2021 PR-2021-084005 3009 BOWMAN AVENUE D.3 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1941 house, a ca. 2018 addition, and pool. One-story Colonial Revival-styled wood frame house with a front-gabled entry and a partial-width independent porch on round columns; single and paired fenestration. 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. 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 water service permit does reference this address. John and Mattie Barclay were married in 1941, and he began his pastorship at Central Christian that year. Barclay was an influential leader in Austin’s religious community, organizing the Austin Council of Churches. He presided at Central Christian over its period of greatest growth, and offered the Protestant prayer at the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy in 1961. While serving as U.S. Senator, Lyndon B. Johnson was a member of this church. STAFF COMMENTS Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The original building is more than 50 years old. 2) The original building is still discernible, but has a large non-historic addition. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined it may meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The house is a good example of Colonial Revival architecture, and reflects a variant of Colonial Revival that was more common in the Carolinas; John Barclay, the first owner of this house, was from North Carolina. While Barclay would definitely recognize the original part of the house, the new addition to the south dwarfs it 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. b. Historical association. The house is associated with John Barclay, who lived here from 1941 until his retirement. Barclay was the pastor …
