HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS C.1 - 1 FEBRUARY 24, 2020 NRD-2020-0004 92 RAINEY STREET RAINEY STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1911-12 contributing bungalow and construct a new high-rise tower in its place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing contributing building. 2) Construct new 53-floor, 606’ tower, occupying two adjacent lots at 90 (now Container Bar) and 92 Rainey Street. The tower includes: a) Below-ground garage b) Commercial space (first and second floors plus third-floor bar area): i. Materials throughout include a transparent glass curtainwall system with metal mullions; simplified pilasters of textured stone at bay divisions; recessed mural panels with overhead lighting, and textured concrete cladding. Flat metal awnings above each tenant entrance at 1 and 1.5 stories are topped with lit signage. ii. At the east elevation, vertically-articulated panel systems of varying widths define tenant spaces. A metal shipping container with viewport projects from recessed bar space at the second floor, hovering above the streetscape. An angled precast concrete panel projects through both recessed bar spaces. c) Hotel and residential spaces: i. The tower is clad in a reflective glass curtainwall system throughout, with precast concrete accent panels on secondary facades. ii. Levels 8-52 are set back from the lower section of the tower (at roughly 177’). iii. 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 …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NRD-2010-0125 PROPOSAL 92 Rainey Street C.3. - 1 NOVEMBER 15, 2010 Rainey Street Modifications to the north, west, and south facades of the house; construction of a new walk-in cooler on the north side of the house, a wraparound deck on the south and west sides, a new separate restroom building in back of the house, installation of a steel trellis on the back of the house, and replacement of the composition shingle roof with a metal roof. 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. STAFF COMMENTS STAFF RECOMMENDATION The ca. 1927 bungalow is contributing to the Rainey Street National Register Historic District. Release the building permit after completion of a City of Austin Documentation Package consisting of photographs of all four elevations and a measured sketch plan to record existing conditions and for archiving at the Austin History Center. Staff requests that the applicant reconsider the installation of the steel-framed glass at the rear of the building in favor of an architectural feature more compatible with the Craftsman detailing of the house. Overall, the appearance of the house …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.1 - 1 MAY 18, 2020 C14H-1978-0033 LITTLEFIELD BUILDING 106 E. 6TH STREET Install a removable metal canopy along with 6th Street elevation of the building. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes a suspended metal canopy along the east portion of the 6th Street elevation of the building. The canopy will extend over the retail spaces to the east of the 6th Street entrance to the building. The canopy will be suspended from metal cables and will be constructed of welded aluminum with a sheet metal roof and a frosted plexiglass ceiling. The exterior of the canopy will be finished in black. The canopy has a modern design. The applicant’s drawings show signage to be installed on the face of the canopy but no application for signs has been submitted at this time. There is currently a metal canopy over the 6th Street entrance to the building, but canvas awnings over the retail space to the east. Historic photos show the metal awning and the entry on 6th Street but nothing over the current retail space to the east: B.1 - 2 B.1 - 3 B.1 - 4 STANDARDS 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) 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: There is no historic record of a metal canopy at this location on the building. 9) New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. Evaluation: If permitted, the new canopy will not mimic the historic style of the existing canopy over the 6th Street entrance (which is a modern reconstruction of the historic canopy), but will be compatible with the scale and materials of the existing canopies. B.1 - 5 10) New additions and adjacent or related construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.2 - 1 MAY 18, 2020 C14H-1994-0012 J.M. CRAWFORD BUILDING 1412 SOUTH CONGRESS AVENUE Repair and restore the west elevation of the building and install shutters and red cedar loading dock doors on the west elevation. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes to install a fixed hinged shutter and fixed loading dock doors out of western red cedar on the west wall of the building to cover areas that have been boarded up, and to repair the stuccoed west wall of the building. STANDARDS 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) 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. B.2 - 2 Evaluation: The proposed project will not remove any historic materials, but will cover over deteriorated and boarded-over sections of the west and north walls. 2) 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: The building was originally a feed store; the garage opening on the north wall was originally part of the building and had doors on it, but there does not appear to be any photographic record of what they looked like. Those doors have been lost over time and the opening has been boarded over. The proposed solution is a new fixed door constructed out of western red cedar. It is not known what the original door looked like, so this proposal is a modern solution to an unsightly opening on the building that is not trying to recreate a historic appearance. 5) Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. Evaluation: The stucco was applied to the building at an unknown date; the applicant proposes to repair failing stucco but to leave exposed brick exposed. 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. …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.3 - 1 MAY 18, 2020 C14H-1997-0008 NORWOOD HOUSE 1018 EDGECLIFF TERRACE PROPOSAL Restore main house and add a trellis to the rear of the building. Reconstruct the historic teahouse gazebo. Add a new storage building and auxiliary function building to the site. Remodel landscape. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Main house: Most structural members will be repaired or replaced to retain the building’s original form. It will be clad in running-bond brick with soldier and sill course detailing; river rock and limestone accents throughout define the house’s exterior openings, sills, columns, and chimney. Masonry elements will match historic photographs and samples found on-site. The roof will be retiled with Ludowici clay shingles, with finish and color matching original samples. Wood window screen frames, doors, columns, lanterns, frieze boards, vents, and timber framing will be restored where possible. Window screens will be replaced with non-reflective bronze screen. Wood window sashes will be replaced in- kind where deterioration precludes repair and rehabilitation; as most of the original glazing is missing, it will be replaced with energy-efficient double glazing. Façade variations are as follows: a) South: The main elevation will be rebuilt to match historic photographs of the building, with the addition of a brick and exposed concrete access ramp and exposed-concrete steps. b) East and west: Two windows will shift slightly from their original placement at the west elevation. c) North: The central windows will be enlarged and replaced with fixed, single-pane clear picture windows and two aluminum-clad doors. The positions of the existing door and window will be reversed. 2) Teahouse: The teahouse, a simple brick-columned structure with attached trellis, exposed rafter tails, and tiled hipped roof, will be constructed on the site of the historic teahouse. 3) Storage and support buildings: A CMU storage building with flat roof and fixed-pane windows will be set back from the main house. It is connected to the new auxiliary building by a walkway covered with a steel drill-stem pipe trellis. The auxiliary building, constructed with matching CMU and fenestration, features small skylights and solar panels on its flat roof. 4) Site work: The proposed landscaping plan for the event lawn follows the general design of the historic formal garden. A low concrete fountain will be installed at the site of the historic fountain, and a low brick retaining wall will define the lawn’s edge. STANDARDS …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS C.1 - 1 MAY 18, 2020 NRD-2020-0004 92 RAINEY STREET RAINEY STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1911-12 contributing bungalow and construct a new high-rise tower in its place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing contributing building. 2) Construct new 53-floor, 606’ tower, occupying two adjacent lots at 90 (now Container Bar) and 92 Rainey Street. The tower includes: a) Below-ground garage b) Commercial space (first and second floors plus third-floor bar area): i. Materials throughout include a transparent glass curtainwall system with metal mullions; simplified pilasters of textured stone at bay divisions; recessed mural panels with overhead lighting, and textured concrete cladding. Flat metal awnings above each tenant entrance at 1 and 1.5 stories are topped with lit signage. ii. At the east elevation, vertically-articulated panel systems of varying widths define tenant spaces. A metal shipping container with viewport projects from recessed bar space at the second floor, hovering above the streetscape. An angled precast concrete panel projects through both recessed bar spaces. c) Hotel and residential spaces: i. The tower is clad in a reflective glass curtainwall system throughout, with precast concrete accent panels on secondary facades. ii. Levels 8-52 are set back from the lower section of the tower (at roughly 177’). iii. 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 …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MAY 18, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0095 601 W. 26TH STREET D.1 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1890 commercial building. ARCHITECTURE Two-story, rectangular-plan brick commercial building with a decorated cornice; it appears that the ground -floor storefronts have been filled in with masonry; modern replacement windows and doors. RESEARCH The building appears to date from ca. 1890, when Carl Beryman opened a neighborhood store here. Before constructing this building for his store and upstairs residence, Beryman lived just to the south of the current building, and had his store at 325-27 Congress Avenue. His was a variety store, selling dry goods, furnishing goods, boots, shoes, hats, notions, groceries, and feed; he was also an agent for several steamship lines. Around 1904, he brought in his son, also named Carl, and changed the name of the business to C.W. Beryman and Sons. They listed fewer wares in their city directory listings after 1908, concentrating on dry goods and groceries. Around 1913, they listed their business as “general merchandise” after the elder Carl Beryman passed away in 1912. His obituary notes that he was a Swedish immigrant who had been in business in Austin for many years and very well-respected. His son, Carl E. Beryman, took over the store after his father’s death, and operated it out of this building until around 1915. A succession of owners of grocery businesses occupied this building, some living upstairs, until around 1919, when W.M. Powell opened the Powell Quality Grocery, in business until around 1926. After a short period of vacancy, there was another succession of grocery stores; around 1938, the building became Fowler’s Food Store, in business until the mid-1950s, the last commercial enterprise in this building. Carl and Marietta Fowler also had a café, and lived upstairs. Around 1955, the building was converted to four apartments. It is believed that the infill of the ground floor storefronts occurred at that time. An undated, but believed to be early 1960s photograph at the Austin History center shows the current appearance of the building. This building has a very unusual and tragic history – two of the owners of stores in this building died from exposure. Carl E. Beryman died in record cold weather in 1949; Carl L. Fowler wandered into a field in 1957 and froze to death. STAFF COMMENTS The building was listed as a Priority 2 for …
