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 …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS /DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 PR-2024-159632; GF-2024-161879 WEST LINE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 705 WEST LYNN STREET 7.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1895 house. ARCHITECTURE The house located at 705 West Lynn Street is a single-story, center passage house with a side gabled roof set at a moderate- to-high pitch. The single front door is centered on the house with one 2/2 window on either side. There is a front porch that extends across the entirety of the front façade, supported by four columns. Due to the elevation of the site, the porch sits nearly at grade towards the front of the lot, but at the rear of the property is a full height unconditioned crawlspace or basement. While the footprint of the building may read as a simple rectangular center hall design, the rear extends further back into the lot, including an enclosed porch. There is also a small frame shed on the site, which is also proposed to be demolished. The shed is not mentioned in the West Line National Register nomination. RESEARCH From its construction around 1895 until 1962, the property was owned by the Quick family. John Quick, a carpenter originally from Sweden, was the first listed owner, and later married a woman named Helen, who was also a first-generation Swedish immigrant. Newspaper records indicate that Helen’s sister immigrated to Texas around 1893, though it is unknown whether the sisters arrived together or separately. The Quicks were involved with the local Methodist Church, with the address on West Lynn hosting a circle of the Women’s Society of Christian Service. John Quick died of natural causes in 1945, and Helen occupied the house until her passing in 1962 at the age of 91. The house was left unoccupied for several years after, but by the 1970s, it was occupied by renters. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the West Line National Register district, and the nomination further lists the property as eligible for individual listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high-to-moderate 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 …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed two-story dwelling unit is located at the rear (west) of the property and accessed via the alley. It is clad in stucco and vertical wood siding and has a flat roof at the first floor and a low-slope hipped roof at the second. A second- story balcony overlooking the front elevation features simple metal guardrails. Fenestration includes undivided fixed windows at semi-regular intervals at all elevations except for the south, and fully glazed doors at all balcony and ground- floor entrances. 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 unit is located at the rear (west side) of the property, behind the main contributing house. 2. Orientation The proposed two-story dwelling unit is accessed via the alley. 3. Scale, massing, and height Though the new building is two stories in height, its location at the back of the lot and low-profile roofline mitigate the height difference between the main house and the new rear unit. Its floor heights appear somewhat aligned with the main house, and the design features wall-plane offsets that appear to reduce the visual weight of its massing at the main elevation. However, the lack of stepback at the Brackenridge elevation may make it appear monolithic if it is visible from the street. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s proportions are mostly compatible. 5. Design and style The proposed new building’s design is mostly compatible, though horizontal wood siding would be more appropriate than vertical. 6. Roofs The simple low-slope rooflines appear compatible. 7. Exterior walls See 5. 8. Windows and doors Proposed fenestration is mostly compatible, though adding windows at the Brackenridge elevation would increase transparency and offset the potential for a monolithic appearance from the main street. 10. Chimneys The proposed boxed chimney does not meet the standards. 11. Attached garages and carports The proposed attached garage is oriented toward the alley, appropriately for the district. Summary The project mostly meets the applicable standards. …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 HR-2025-003360 OLD WEST AUSTIN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1807 WEST 30TH STREET 9.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct two residential units. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS After a previous approval to demolish a property listed as non-contributing to the Old West Austin Historic District, the applicant is seeking to construct two housing units on the property. Both units are two-stories, with the rear unit including a garage accessed from the side via Oakmont Boulevard. Front and side setbacks are at similar distances to the previously demolished 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 Setbacks nearly match those of the previous house and are very similar to other buildings in the district. Specifically, the rhythm of the new construction fits with the surrounding contributing buildings. Standard 1.3 calls for accessory buildings to follow historic setbacks and locations. While the second structure proposed at this property is a full second housing unit, it does conform to the standard. 2. Orientation The property is located on a street corner, with the new house facing the same street (West 30th Street) as the previous house. The rear house will be accessed from the side street, but this access is to be located at the rear of the property. 3. Scale, massing, and height Houses in this section of the district are generally single-story in height. However, numerous new construction has been approved, including immediately across the street, which is two stories in height. However, the northwest corner of the proposed front house, which comprises half of the footprint of this unit, will be a single story. This is a section of the property that is most noticeable from a distance, so it conforms to the standards. The rear unit is subordinate in height and footprint to the front unit, which satisfies Standard 3.6. 4. Proportions As mentioned in the section above, the front unit includes a two-story and a one-story section. The one-story section is compatible with the dimensions of original houses in the district, and the two-story section is more in common with recent infill and new construction. While not ideal in meeting the Standards, this …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 DA 2024-165526; GF-2024-165917 2600 EAST MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. BOULEVARD 10 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1972 auxiliary hospital building to construct a new mixed-use development. The Capital Area Research and Radiation Center building is a one-story Mid-century Modern health service facility designed by Page, Southerland, and Page and constructed by J. C. Evans Co. The building is horizontally oriented, with a dramatic carport extension at the Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard elevation and a largely windowless street presence. It is concrete with applied stucco. Concrete walls seven feet thick and ceilings four feet thick were engineered to shield physicians and technicians from the radiation equipment within. Holy Cross Hospital, the first hospital to allow Black doctors in Austin, was originally constructed on East 11th Street in 1940 to address the burgeoning disparity in care between black and white hospitals in segregation-era Austin. It was relocated to East 19th Street—now Martin Luther King, Jr., Boulevard—in 1951. The new hospital was designed by Charles Henry Page, who would later help to found Page, Southerland, and Page.1 Though the main hospital was demolished in 1991 and replaced by Campbell Elementary School, its site received a Texas Historical Commission marker in 2021, an effort spearheaded by historian and Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross resident Berri McBride. “At the time,” recounts McBride in an interview with WhatOnceWas.org, “it was the only major hospital where African Americans could receive medical services that were affordable. But at the same time, the services provided by the hospital were complete, they were thorough, and they were first rate provided by superb doctors, including African American doctors.”2 As desegregation slowly took hold in the city, Holy Cross further distinguished itself as a progressive establishment by earning grants for new hospital buildings, innovative treatments, and cutting-edge equipment. In 1965, Page, Southerland, and Page designed the hospital’s iconic five-story circular nursing facility. The separate cancer center, operated by the Capital Area Research and Radiation Foundation and also designed by Page, was approved for installation five years later following the approval of federal funding for a regional radiation facility in Austin. The new cancer center, first called the Regional Research and Radiation Center and then renamed Capital Area Research and Radiation Center, was selected to house Central Texas’s first cobalt-60 radiotherapy device and a linear accelerator designed to treat deep tumors with …

From: To: Subject: Date: Historic Preservation Office Against Review Case DA 24-165526 Monday, December 30, 2024 2:14:19 PM You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Dear Sam Fahnestock, I am writing to submit comments for the Historic Landmark Commission, regarding Review Case DA 24-165526 for the commission's consideration in advance of the January 8, 2025 meeting when this case will be discussed. I am a resident living within 500 feet of 2600 E. MLK Jr Blvd., which is the subject of DA 24-165526. I am AGAINST the proposed demolition of this building, which is the last surviving structure associated with the Holy Cross Hospital, the city’s first hospital for Black patients that was recently granted a historical marker through the Texas Historic Commission's Undertold Markers program (https://austin.towers.net/marking-the-medical-history-of-east-austin-at-holy-cross- hospital/). Preservation of this structure would honor the significant cultural history that it represents, while also building on the efforts of the immediately adjacent Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District in demonstrating the determination and success of the African American community in Austin. I am also concerned about broader plans for the development of this property following demolition, as this permit is one part of a proposal that involves converting the property from civic to mixed use zoning, including density bonuses (Zoning case C14-2024-0111 / Plan Amendment case NPA-2024-0008.01). The preservation of this structure would maintain a street-facing scale and style that is compatible with and complimentary to the adjacent historic residential neighborhoods, as well as other historically significant structures along this stretch of MLK, including David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church, the Della Phillips House, and Fuller-Sheffield Funeral Home--all located less than 500 feet on either side of the property, and characterized by horizontal massing and low slung roofs similar to the style of this structure. Maintaining the stylistic features of the surrounding area at this particular, prominent corner is important and meaningful for this community's and our city's identity. Thank you for your attention to these concerns and consideration of protecting this culturally and historically significant structure.

From: To: Subject: Date: Historic Preservation Office Case DA 24-165526 Demolition -Support for Demolition Monday, January 6, 2025 8:29:02 AM You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Attn: San Fahnestock I am writing to express my support for the proposed demolition of the property located at 2600 E Martin Luther King. . As a property owner at 2503 E MLK], I believe that the removal of this structure would greatly benefit our community for several reasons: 1. Safety Concerns : The current state of the building poses significant safety risks to the neighborhood. It has become a site for illegal activities, and its dilapidated condition could lead to accidents or injuries. 2. Aesthetic and Property Values : The property detracts from the aesthetic appeal of our neighborhood. Demolition would not only improve the visual environment but potentially increase property values for surrounding homes by removing an eyesore. 3. Urban Development : The demolition would open up opportunities for new development or green space, which could revitalize the area. This could align with broader urban planning goals such as increasing community spaces or supporting new housing projects. 4. Health and Environmental Issues : There might be health hazards associated with the current state of the building, such as mold, pests, or asbestos. Demolition would address these issues, ensuring a healthier environment for residents. 5. Community Sentiment : From discussions within the community, there seems to be a general consensus that this property should be removed. This move would be in line with the community's wishes for a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant neighborhood. Please consider this letter as my formal endorsement for the demolition of the property at 2600 E Martin Luther King Jr. BLVD.

Our Historic District just received images today and time is needed to consider the project. This project has great ramifications to our Historic District, and we are very concerned about granting demolition permits and re-zoning before concerns are addressed: It is adjacent to an elementary school; height of building will impact the elementary What is the number of units planned, amount of parking, entrances and exits? Have environmental studies been completed? What will the impact be on well established entities like the funeral home, hospice facility and the Rogers- Washington-Holy Cross Historic District? So many concerns that have not been given time to discuss. Please do Not allow this project to move forward with demolition and re-zoning.

11 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS FEBRUARY 5, 2025 DA-2024-088952; GF-2024-147530 8401 HATHAWAY DRIVE PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolish a ca. 1952 school and associated outbuildings. A 1960 Statesman article describes architect J. Roy White’s design for Burnet Middle School, then Lanier Junior High School, in detail: The sprawling, modern school will contain 49 teaching stations…on a 25-acre site, properly oriented for adequate cross- ventilation in all areas. A feature of the plan involves the gymnasium stage which can be viewed from [the] interior…or from a large outdoor courtyard…classroom areas can be locked off making it accessible for school and community use at night. An off-street driveway…allows students to be discharged under covered passageways…the administrative office is centrally located with the cafeteria and gymnasium on one side and three classroom wings on the other. These parallel wings are connected by covered walkways which create four courtyards. The first of the classroom wings is two-storied…the design of the school is contemporary with the exterior red face brick with aluminum windows and doors…The sloping, gabled roof was designed to give the school a homelike feeling, blending with the residential neighborhood.1 RESEARCH As Austin’s postwar population swelled and suburban neighborhoods crept northwards during the mid-twentieth century, new schools were required for the next generation of Northwest Austinites. This demographic and development change ushered in a new wave of Modern designs by innovative architects taking advantage of new technologies and design sensibilities, often on sprawling new campuses. David G. Burnet Junior High School, originally Sidney Lanier Junior High School, was designed by noted Austin architect J. Roy White during his tenure at Kuehne, Brooks, and Barr (later Brooks, Barr, Graeber, and White). Cottingham and Hale Engineers completed the structural design, and B. L. McGee was the general contractor. The school was contracted by AISD in 1960 and was initially intended to house both junior and senior high school students until a larger school could be built to relieve crowded McCallum High. When Lanier High School, designed by Fehr and Granger, was completed in 1966, 8401 Hathaway Drive became Burnet Junior High. Primary architect J. Roy White graduated from the University of Texas in 1929 and practiced in Austin until his retirement in the 1980s. White’s work often focused on institutional and civic buildings: he designed the original Austin Public Library in 1933 as part of Kuehne, Brooks, and Barr, and worked for …
