Good Morning Steve and Cara, As you should know, GNDC has an affordable senior housing project in the works for the Lopez Property. We are at the point where the site plan can be approved, however, because the property has historic zoning, the site development permit cannot be issued until your office provides a certificate of appropriateness. We have until mid-August to get that done, but would love to have it sooner. We have made great efforts in the design process to maintain the structural and historic integrity of the Routon-Alvarez-Lopez House; stepping the tower away from the house (despite the incredible site constraints we face), removed balconies, reduced the size and minimized the visual impact of the hallway connecting the tower with the house. I joke with people that we should have started with the idea of of relocating to house to a site somewhere else and then, when that got shot down, moved to a design where we built over top of the house, and then, after that got shot down, proposed our initial design and it would have been hailed as wonderful. Instead, we tried to design as sensitively as possible from the start while being responsible to our mission of providing as much affordable housing as possible on a site with zoning and development entitlements that call for dense and tall buildings and prohibit the development of single-family structures. As you know, GNDC includes historic preservation as part of our mission, so the idea of demolition or relocation is something we would turn to only as a last resort. We're going through a Section 106 review and the Texas Historical Commission reviewed our initial designs (which were sent to you as early as January and again in March) and they made recommendations for changes which we then incorporated into the designs that I've attached. On May 27th, Lydia Woods-Boone,Program Coordinator for the Federal and State Review Program responded to the revised design as follows: Thank you for taking the time to change the design in order to more appropriately work with the historic structure. This design is greatly improved and seems to address all of our concerns. Please have the applicant resubmit the project with these designs through our eTRAC system so they can be formally reviewed under the Section 106 process. If there are any additional questions just let me know. Mr. Hatch, Thanks, Lydia …
H ISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.4 - 1 JU LY 27, 2020 C14H-2011-0002 ROU TON-ALVAREZ-LOPEZ HOUSE 809 E. 9TH STREET Construct a mid-rise residential tower adjacent to the house. PR OPOSAL PR OJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes the construction of a mid-rise residential tower to provide affordable housing for seniors at the rear of the historic house. The proposed residential tower will be 9 stories (just over 112 feet) tall, with a slanted roof. The building will have stucco, glazed brick, and siding as its principal materials. There will be 6’-8” between the back wall of the house and the closest wall of the proposed building. The house will be used as a community room for the proposed new affordable housing project. STA NDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1) A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. Evaluation: This project does not really affect the physical structure or the use of the existing house. It had a residential use historically, and is now being proposed as a community room for the adjacent residential project. 2) The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. Evaluation: The house will not be affected by the construction of the adjacent building. No work is proposed for the historic house. The new building is over 6 feet from the back of the historic house; there will be an effect on the spatial relationships which currently exist on this property, but the general context of the neighborhood has changed dramatically over the past few years with the construction of adjacent apartment buildings. 3) Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. Evaluation: No work is proposed for the historic house. 4) Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Evaluation: N/A 5) Distinctive materials, features, …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.6 - 1 JULY 27, 2020 THE UMLAUF 506 BARTON BOULEVARD GF-2020-098312 PROPOSAL This application is pursuant to a Heritage Grant application to replace the roof in-kind, repoint brick, and repair roof framing in a rear area. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The project has three parts: 1) Replace the existing roof with 3-tab asphalt shingles and standing-seam metal. This is an in-kind replacement. 2) Repoint the brick cladding with hydraulic cement where cracks evidence a foundation shift. The mortar will not match existing; the applicant states that cement must be used to prevent water infiltration. 3) Close underpinning with chopped limestone to prevent animal entry; work will match existing. 4) Reframe the rear (north) laundry area: replace rotted roof joists, tongue and groove decking, and fascia. No changes will be made to exterior walls. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate projects on historic landmarks and to any other properties receiving Hotel Occupancy Tax funding through a Heritage Grant. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 6) Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. The roof and pointing are in-kind work that will match existing materials. The project meets this standard. 7) Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. Hydraulic cement will be used for repointing. The applicant is consulting with historic preservation professionals at the City’s Parks and Recreation Department to ensure that treatments will not damage historic materials, and the department will have a representative on-site during the repairs. The project meets this standard. The project meets this standard. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the project, except for the mortar; authorize staff to review and administratively approve the mortar type.
Hyde Park Topper Approval Minutes from November 26, 2012 Staff report HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION NOVEMBER 26, 2012 CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS LHD-2012-0034 Sign Toppers Hyde Park Local Historic District PROPOSAL Fabricate and install five "sign toppers" identifying the Hyde Park Local Historic District. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Proposal calls for the fabrication and installation of signs identifying the Hyde Park Local Historic District. The signs will be funded by the Hyde Park Neighborhood Association (HPNA) and will be installed by the City's Transportation Department on top of existing street signs at the following intersections: Southeast corner of W. 40th Street and Avenue B with the sign parallel to Avenue B. Northeast corner of e. 44th Street and Avenue G with the sign parallel to Avenue G. Northeast corner of E. 39th Street and Avenue G with the sign parallel to E. 39th St. Northeast corner of E. 43rd Street and Avenue F with the sign parallel to Avenue F Northeast corner of W. 44th Street and Avenue B with the sign parallel to Avenue B The approximately 9" x 24" signs will be fabricated of aluminum with black background with white/silver reflective graphics and text. The HPNA has requested that the design include the City of Austin seal, name of the district, the date Hyde Park neighborhood was established, and the date the Local Historic District was established. The intent is for the approved design to become the standard template for signage in all City of Austin local historic districts, and that sign toppers only be allowed for Local Historic Districts. Funding for additional signs in the Hyde Park Local Historic District and in other districts is not currently available. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Hyde Park Local Historic District Goals and Design Standards do not specifically provide guidance for this type of street sign, however the signs as proposed do not adversely impact the historic character or integrity of the district or streetscape. Additionally, by identifying the historic district, they provide important recognition of the efforts of residents to establish the LHD, as well as identify the zoning classification for residents and visitors. Historic Preservation Office staff met with representatives of the Harthan Street Local Historic District and Castle Hill Local Historic District, as well as residents from neighborhoods interested in pursuing LHD zoning, to obtain feedback on the proposed design. Most people expressed the opinion that including dates for both the establishment …

After level 24, which separates the hotel units from residences and short-term rental units, glass balconies project from the north and south elevations. d) Roof deck RESEARCH The house at 92 Rainey Street was built around 1911. Its first owner was farrier Alonzo B. Cook, who ran a shop on Congress Avenue. From 1914 to 1920, the house had several short-term occupants, including a painter, a grocer, and a night watchman. By 1920, it had been purchased by Emil and Edith Bohls. Emil Bohls owned a restaurant in 1920, but he soon opened an auto paint shop on 5th Street. By 1937, as Austin’s automobile culture continued to grow, Bohls had expanded his repertoire to include a tourist camp and filling station on South Congress Avenue. By 1939, the Bohls family sold the home to Charles B. and Pearl Eustace. The Eustace family had lived across the street at 95 Rainey since 1922. Charles had recently retired from the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company after a 39-year tenure. As one of the earliest telephone employees in Austin, he was an active member of the …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes modifications to the exterior of the house to accommodate a walk-in cooler on the north side and a wood deck wrapping around the south and west sides, and the construction of a separate building behind the house for restrooms, storage, and an outdoor bar area. The front of the house will see the fewest modifications: only a deteriorating plaster porch pier and porch railing will be removed. On the north wall, the existing wood windows will be removed to accommodate the addition of the walk-in cooler, which will have wood siding and a flat roof. On the south wall, the existing wood-sided infill with a vinyl window will be removed and be replaced with a door and a steel-framed fixed sash window. On the west (rear) wall, the existing back door and window will be removed, as will the wood-sided infill that wraps around from the south side of the house. The infill section will have the wraparound of the steel-framed fixed sash window from the south side of the building. A new deck will surround the house on the south and west sides, and provide access to a new structure in the back yard, housing restrooms and storage. The existing composition shingle roof on the house will be replaced with a metal roof.

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Construction of a maintenance barn. The proposed barn will be clad in prefinished corrugated metal panels. Flat prefinished metal canopies will shade windows and entrances, and an irregular, angled metal shed roofline extends over bay doors at the south and east elevations. Rectangular fixed-pane windows are arranged in a regular pattern at south and west elevations, while a single horizontal window appears on the east façade. 2) Construction of two shed-roofed pole barns. 3) Construction of a biofiltration pond. 4) Construction of a staff parking lot. 5) Construction of a chemical storage building and rainwater tanks. The storage building will be constructed of split-face concrete masonry units, with a metal shed roof. 6) Construction of a security fence. 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. No historic buildings, structures, or significant landscape features will be removed. 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 proposed new building is differentiated from historic park structures in its siting, materials, and form. While its massing, cladding, and roofline are at odds with the rustic setting and character-defining features of historic park buildings, it does not appear to be entirely visible from Columbus Drive, and will not be accessible to the public. The pole barns and other support structures are sited far back from the road and should not be visible from the street. Significant tree cover in this area will also shield the new construction from view of other areas of the park. 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 …

C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Potential comparable property There is a duplex on the same street at 1506 Hardouin. It has both doors together on left side. 1404 may have been the same way. Note the first floor central window does not align with window above. I am wondering if when the 1404 window was removed for the entry update, if it may not have aligned and have been shifted as well. 1404 front windows are not centered on the house - possibly because of left entrance location. This 1506 Hardouin duplex also is simple in its detail. No shutters or colonial revival features that I think were added to 1404. C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Area of Existing Alterations to South Elevation Alterations transition façade from duplex with simple detail and two front entrances to a house with more traditional detail and central formalized entrance. Second entry was on the left side of the elevation behind the tall plant. Circle drive, brick sidewalk and front yard fence are not original C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Fanlight over front door and front door do not appear to be original. Top of fanlight runs into crown molding. Fanlight over window may have been added. Window sills in front rooms of the house are different heights – originally they were probably the same heights. C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Clean line of concrete east (right) of entry Uneven line of patched / parged concrete west (left) of entry where second entry removed C.4 – 1404 Hardouin Ave Information provided by applicant Front porch appears to have been added at a later date. Brick detail on porch matches brick sidewalk next to circle drive that is not original.
