Steering Committee Members: Steve Amos, Chair Renae Alsobrook, Mark Ashby, Evelyn Fujimoto, Adrienne Goldsberry, Paula Hern, Nick Mehl, William Osborn, Charlie Rice, Paul Shattuck, Shawn Shillington, Erika Tatum, Meghan Yancy February 3, 2025 RE: 705 West Lynn - PR-2024-159632; GF-2024-161879 Dear Chair Heimsath and HLC Commissioners, Old West Austin Neighborhood Association, OWANA, supports retaining contributing structures in our historic district and integrating existing building forms into the overall project for new development. In the case of 705 West Lynn, preserving the façade and front rooms of the existing house and adding on to the structure would have a significant impact toward that goal. The applicant met with the OWANA zoning committee and we suggested these two options for maximizing the square footage for two living units: 1. Add a second floor to a garage structure. 2. Remove a portion or all of the heritage tree on the lot to allow for a second unit. This particular case is one that is to decide on keeping a heritage tree or a contributing structure. OWANA will support the position of keeping the contributing structure. We hope that HLC can also recommend keeping the structure. We are aware that the city tree ordinance regarding heritage trees is very strict, it seems to us in this case that if both OWANA and the HLC supports this position there is the possibility of the city arborist accepting this solution. The potential Owner in today’s meeting said that he could keep the first 15 ft of the house and make the project work if the heritage tree in the back of the lot could be removed. The tree is so close to the rear structure that it might be damaged during construction. It could be the case that some mitigation is require to offset this lost. The United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Report “NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES REGISTRATION FORM” lists 705 West Lynn as a representative property to illustrate “the broad patterns of development, diverse range of resources, and salient features of the dominant types and styles present in the district. They have been selected on the basis of their geographic distribution, relationship to similar properties, and degree of integrity.” Listed as a contributing structure, 705 West Lynn is a Center-passage, Side Gable Classical Revival style, and individually eligible for National Register listing. Please consider our position in your decision process …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 DA-2024-089522 WEST DOWNTOWN AUSTIN HISTORIC DISTRICT 810 WEST 11TH STREET 5.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a contributing property. ARCHITECTURE A wide, double-pitch side-gabled roof dominates the front façade of the house. A dormer vent is present at the center located above and behind a small gable overhang above the front door, which features a modest pair of brackets on either side of it. There are windows on either side of the brackets, and, while similar in size and material, do not match and provide a small amount of asymmetry to the elevation. The windows have been replaced with newer units and feature nonfunctional shutters. There is a concrete porch held two steps above ground in front of the door, with a simple metal handrail all around. The foundation is pier-on-beam, with a vented crawlspace underneath the floor. The house is almost entirely clad in buff brick in good condition, except for the side dormers, which are clad in wood lap siding with vents also present. RESEARCH The house at 810 West 11th Street was built in the early-to-mid 1930s, and the long-term owners for over 20 years were Joseph & Ida Kasper. The former was a furrier and owned a business at 109 East 9th Street in downtown Austin. While living at the address, they housed their children while they studied at the University of Texas. The son, Albert, was a dentistry student who left school to serve in World War II and finished his degree upon his return, graduating in 1945. Their daughter, Beatrice, graduated from university and became a teacher at Baker Junior High School in Hyde Park. She married Stewart Barnett in 1947, and they lived together in the house before moving out sometime after 1949. In 1987, the residence was converted to office use and has continued in this function to present day. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the West Downtown Austin National Register 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 it does not meet two criteria: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of an intact minimal traditional bungalow in the district. b. Historical association. The property does …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 PR-2024-149032 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 1908 KENWOOD AVENUE 6.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Enclose carport and construct a second-story addition. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct an enclosure of the existing carport located at the west side of the building, which will house a screened porch and two car garage. This enclosure will slightly expand the footprint to the west, but existing exterior cladding is to be retained. The upper-floor addition will be located within the area of new construction and will project above the peak of the existing roof. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS This 1934 house is described in the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register as being asymmetrical in plan and having no overarching stylistic influences. The façade is clad on all sides in buff and tan brick, with wood fascia and gable ends. Due to local elevation, the house reads as one-story from Mariposa Street and two-stories from Kenwood Avenue. On the latter façade, a second-floor porch is present that spans two thirds of the façade, with a projecting ground-floor gable at the right. A front entry is located on the Mariposa Street elevation, which is fronted by a winding walkway from the street. As a whole, the house retains good integrity and not much alteration is apparent. After being constructed in 1934, the house at 1908 Kenwood Avenue was owned by Earl and Caroline Howell. They raised their daughter Carolyn in the house, where she graduated from the University of Texas. By the 1960s, they had moved out and Mr. and Mrs. J.K. Green owned the house, where they welcomed a daughter of their own. There is little known information about what line of work these owners did during these years. 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 By using existing covered carport space, the enclosed addition is located in an area to one side of the house, towards the rear alley. Its visual impact is minimized by using this location, as recommended by Standard 1.1. However, the addition adds a story to the building at the front wall, which is not a recommended location per Standard 1.3, though the upper-story addition is …
