HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION JANUARY 25, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-20-186435 1904 MOUNTAIN VIEW ROAD D.4 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1949 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story, irregular-plan brick house with a flat roof and metal-framed fenestration in a horizontal 2:2 configuration. The house reflects tenets of the International Style, made popular by the designs of architect Philip Johnson in the 1930s, and featuring a boxy composition, use of rectilinear forms, and a lack of surface ornamentation or decoration, in contrast with the Art Deco and Streamline Moderne styles popular at around the same time. The International Style was generally considered a style for commercial buildings, but there are also examples of the style applied to residential construction. The house was designed by prominent Austin architect Howard R. Barr as part of the Acme Ceramic Housing Project. Of the remaining test houses, this house appears to be the most intact. RESEARCH The house at 1904 Mountain View Road was one of six houses constructed as part of the Acme Ceramic Housing Project, a research endeavor conducted by the Bureau of Engineering Research at the University of Texas and sponsored by the Acme Brick Company. It compared houses of all clay tile construction with a control house of more conventional frame construction. The experiment sought to determine benefits of structural tile foundations in expansive soils and use the thermal storage capacity of masonry in conjunction with innovative heating and cooling systems. This test house was designed by Howard R. Barr as an associate architect at Giesecke, Kuehne & Brooks. Barr joined the firm following service in the Navy in World War II. He later became a partner this prominent Austin firm, known successively as Kuehne, Brooks & Barr; Brooks and Barr; and Brooks, Barr, Graeber and White before merging with 3D/International. Barr retired from 3D/I in 1978 and opened a private practice. Among his firms’ best-known works are buildings at Huston-Tillotson University and the University of Texas at Austin, including the Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library with Skidmore, Owings and Merrill; the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City; and the original complex of the Johnson Space Center in Houston. Additionally, this house on Mountainview Road was the last house in Austin owned by Edmond C. and Ruth V. Rather, who lived here from around 1951 at least until Edmond died in 1974. Edmond Rather was born in Kaufman, Texas in either 1897 or …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 22, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-2020-192534 503 E. ANNIE STREET D.5 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1931 house. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, side-gabled frame house with a central, front-gabled entry bay; paired 1:1 fenestration on the main elevation; single and paired 1:1 fenestration elsewhere; standing seam metal roof. RESEARCH The house appears to have been built in 1931, based upon city directory records and a sewer service permit issued for this address. The first owner and occupant was Elmer D. Wiginton, who may have moved in here as early as 1931 with a wife named Patricia (who only shows up in the 1932-33 city directory), or with his wife Lillian who appears in all later city directories; they married in April of 1932. Elmer D. Wiginton was an accountant for the City Auditing Department; he and Lillian lived here until 1940, when the moved to a house on Bonnieview in Fairview Park. The next owners and occupants, who lived here from around 1948 until at least 1974, were Tom B. and Rena Woodland. Tom B. Woodland was a retired farmer from Concho County, Texas; while living in Austin, he worked as a watchman. Rena Woodland was a saleslady in various hardware stores, including Woodland Hardware on South Congress Avenue, operated by Webb and David C. Woodland, Jr., possible relatives. STAFF COMMENTS The house is listed as contributing to the pending Travis Heights National Register Historic District. Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house, while clearly contributing to the pending historic district, does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The house is a ca. 1931 Craftsman cottage, typical of many in the neighborhood, and characterizing a large number of middle class residences in Travis Heights. This house does not reflect the architectural distinction necessary for qualification as a historic landmark under this criterion. b. Historical association. The house was first owned by an accountant for the city, and then by a retired farmer and his wife, who worked as a saleslady in a hardware store. There do not appear to be significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The house was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The house does not possess a unique …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 22, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-2020-192260 3404 GOVALLE AVE. D.6 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish frame portions behind a 1955 masonry church. ARCHITECTURE The former Loyalty Missionary Baptist Church building is a front-gabled concrete masonry unit church with a projecting entry bay flanked by large buttresses on the front elevation and regularly spaced vertical windows between shallow buttresses on the side elevations. A rear frame portion abuts the north (back) wall of the masonry church. A taller gabled volume with paired wood doors on the east and three rows of windows on the west is intersected by a lower wing to the north. Both portions are clad in asbestos shingles and have Craftsman details including knee braces and exposed rafter tails. RESEARCH Govalle Baptist Church was a white congregation active from ca. 1939 to 1976. The church erected a two- story frame building at 3402 Govalle Road in 1939, consisting of an auditorium and seven rooms. Newspaper articles report PTA meetings held in the building’s basement. It is unclear whether this is the frame structure proposed for demolition; the applicant reports that the frame portions were moved to the site after the masonry church was built in 1955. The Govalle Baptist Church congregation merged with Beacon Ridge Baptist Church in 1976. In the same year, the newly formed Loyalty Missionary Baptist Church, an African American congregation, acquired this building. STAFF COMMENTS 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated this church for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that it does not appear to meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a) Architecture. While the church has a unique design, it does not necessarily qualify for historic landmark designation under this criterion. b) Historical association. While associated with two former churches, no significant historic events were identified. c) Archaeology. The church was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d) Community value. The church is not known to 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.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 22, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS GF-2021-015104 6800 WOODROW AVENUE D.9 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a 1956 church. ARCHITECTURE The First Cumberland Presbyterian Church comprises multiple interconnected gable-roofed buildings. The church sanctuary projects toward Woodrow Avenue, with a single lancet window in the end wall. The main entrance, set into a substantial Gothic arch surround, is under a dramatic, modern steeple set back and to the side of the sanctuary. Other wings have simpler architecture but are unified by their variegated orange brick cladding. RESEARCH First Cumberland Presbyterian Church was one of Austin’s oldest congregations, founded in 1846. The church was located at W. 7th and Lavaca streets from 1892 until 1955, when that building was demolished and a new church constructed at 6800 Woodrow Avenue. The new building included a sanctuary, fellowship hall, kitchen, and 15 classrooms. In 1968, the sanctuary was expanded and additional buildings constructed, including a gymnasium, chapel, and educational facilities. Architect Doyle M. Baldridge designed the 1956 building and six other Austin-area churches, including the Memorial Methodist Church (6100 Berkman Drive, 1958) and Ward Memorial Church (2105 Parker Lane, 1960), both extant. Baldrige practiced architecture in Austin from 1945 until his death in 1962, working as a designer at Giesecke, Kuehne and Brooks before establishing his own practice. From 1953–1957 he advised on all new construction and major repair projects of the University of Texas system. He served as treasurer of the Texas Society of Architects in 1956. STAFF COMMENTS 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated this church for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that it may not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a) Architecture. The church has a distinctive, midcentury modern design by local architect Doyle Baldridge and may qualify for historic landmark designation under this criterion. b) Historical association. Although associated with one of the oldest congregations in Austin, this building was constructed nearly 90 years after the church’s founding, and no significant events are known to have occurred at this site. c) Archaeology. The church was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d) Community value. The church is not …
Brentwood Neighborhood Association Serving Our Neighborhood from 45th St. to Justin Lane and North Lamar to Burnet Road Metcalfe Wolff Stuart & Williams, LLP March 5, 2021 To: Michele Rogerson Lynch Re: 6800 Woodrow Ave. Thank you for attending our March 3rd Steering Committee meeting to apprise us of the redevelopment plans for 6800 Woodrow Ave. As presented at that meeting, the prospective buyer of this property has submitted a Demolition Permit for the church property. Further, they intend to re-develop the existing platted lots (zoned SF-3) as single family residential (as allowed under the Land Development Code). No variances or waivers will be sought, per the Applicant. In addition, good faith efforts will be made to retain and protect the existing trees. This church (along with several others on Woodrow Ave.) has been in place for many decades, but we understand that its current use is no longer viable. And given that the church architecture is not historically significant, we further acknowledge that this transition to a new use is inevitable. Therefore, the Brentwood Steering Committee has voted to not oppose this redevelopment. It is our hope that the new houses will provide greater opportunity for other residents of Austin to make Brentwood their home. Sincerely, Kristine Poland, BNA President
From: To: Subject: Date: Jennifer Awbrey PAZ Preservation Case Number GF 21-015104 - 6800 Woodrow Ave. Hearing Date Feb. 22, 2021 at 6 pm. Monday, February 22, 2021 4:44:13 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Mr Rice, I am writing to express our objection to the demolition of the Historic Landmark located at 6800 Woodrow Ave. My husband, Joseph Munden, and I are property owners within 500 feet of the subject property. We live at 1402 Ruth Ave. As I am sure you know, First Cumberland Presbyterian Church is one of the oldest congregations in Austin. When they moved the congregation from downtown to Woodrow in the 1950’s, they built a beautiful and architecturally interesting church as their new home, about the same time our home was built. It is sad that the church closed, however the building continues to add beauty and historical value to our area. Today, in particular, the steeple and spire stand out as a picturesque landmark in our neighborhood, with a stunning green patina on the spire. I am lucky to be able to gaze out my back windows and enjoy a view of the steeple and spire, which is often topped by one of our area's birds of prey perched on the cross surveilling its surroundings. It would be a shame to lose such a beautiful sight and popular bird perch to the pressures of development. Surely, at least the steeple and spire portion of the building can be preserved. What’s the point of a Historic Landmark designation if all it takes is money to destroy it? I won't go into more pressure on our infrastructure, more traffic on our narrow neighborhood streets, etc. I am certain you are well aware of those issues. I hope you find in favor of preserving this beautiful neighborhood landmark. Best regards, Jennifer Awbrey CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

Site plan for new build does not accurately show position of garage in back, which is 2.7 feet from the property line per the survey attached to demo plan. 2. Currently, the garage is 2.3 feet into the PUE, and 7.3 feet into the setback.3. The 1997 permit (application) to convert carport to a garage is likely the origin of the garage. That permit was never issued and is listed as VOID in the records. 4. Generally, we are strongly in favor of the house plan. Drainage across our property toward Harris can be managed. But the site plan should show the actual position of the garage, and doesn't.

I am president of its board of directors. We oppose the request of Paradisa Homes to demolish 1104 Toyath Street (Case # HR 21‐029755) because the house contributes to the Clarksville NRHD. Also, the house that Paradisa intends to build in its place is architecturally inappropriate for Clarksville. This case is Three members of the CCDC board of directors met with Luis Zaragoza with Paradisa Homes this past Tuesday to discuss a possible way to retain the house as a contributing structure. Our conversation was positive and as a next step, one of those board members ‐‐ an architect ‐‐ will meet with several Pardisa staffers next Wednesday at the company's office. I also put Luis in touch with Elizabeth Brummett so he could find out how much of 1104 Toyath can be removed without affecting its historically contributing status. Therefore, the CCDC would like you to delay any decision on Paradisa Homes' request to demolish 1104 Toyath until after the meeting next takes place next Wednesday and we have a clearer sense of what Paradisa wants to do.

ITEM D.1.0 – 5613 Patton Ranch Road Historic Landmark Commission March 22, 2021 I. Revised Proposal from St. Andrew’s School. After numerous discussions with City historic preservation staff, community historic preservationists, and neighborhood groups, St. Andrew’s has revised its original proposal regarding the log structures at this site. Originally, St. Andrew’s had proposed (with staff support and assistance) to deconstruct the log structures and deliver them to Pioneer Farms for reconstruction and public interpretation. After discussions with Oak Hill community members and preservationists, and after thoughtful consideration by St. Andrew’s, the school has revised its proposal as follow: A. Requested HLC Action. Grant a permit that will allow: (i) partial demolition of the more recent additions to both the main structure and structures that are comprised of log construction, and (ii) the relocation of the log structure portion of the main building, the log pole barn (or smokehouse) behind the main building and the log corn crib to one of the following potential site locations, at St. Andrew’s election, both of which are near the current site and are on the original Patton Ranch: 1. School Site Option.
