D.9 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MAY 24, 2021 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS PR-2021-055337 2807 BONNIE ROAD PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1937 house with a ca. 1985 two-story addition. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, hipped-roof stone veneered frame house with a projecting front- gabled street elevation containing a round-arched inset entry portico and two 1:1 windows with decorative wooden screens and a prominent attic vent; large one- and two story stucco non-historic addition to the rear right of the original structure. RESEARCH The house was built during the winter of 1936-37 by a local contractor who built a number of stone cottages in West Austin. The first owners and occupants were Bob and Ethel Dalton, who lived here from around 1937 until around 1948. Bob Dalton was a retail clothing salesman for a tailoring company out of Cincinnati, Ohio. He later opened a custom tailor shop in Austin; his wife Ethel was the co-owner of the business. After the Daltons moved to a house on Meadowbrook Drive in 1948, this house was purchased by Alton K. (Bill) and Marguerite Jarrell, who lived here at least through 1959. Bill Jarrell was in the home insulation business. STAFF COMMENTS The house is beyond the bounds of any City survey to date. Staff has evaluated this house for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the house does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The original part of this house is a stone 1930s cottage, which was a style prevalent in this Tarrytown neighborhood, but which is rapidly disappearing. The original part of this house is intact, and could qualify for landmark designation under the architectural criterion, but the structure was added onto in the 1980s, according to city building permit records, significantly compromising its integrity. b. Historical association. The house had two owners during the majority of the historic period; the first was a clothing salesman who later established a custom tailor shop in Austin; the second was the owner of an insulation company; 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 original house was a stone cottage dating to the late 1930s, and is characteristic of the early phases of construction in Tarrytown, but …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-063830 1113 E. 9TH STREET JOBE HOUSE / ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT B.8 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a 1-story side addition. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW Residential Additions Location The addition is set back approximately 27’ from the front wall and has a footprint of 331 square feet. It is clad in 12” horizontal hardiplank siding, with 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows. The addition is capped by a combination side-gabled and hipped roof, with a shallow flat roof over the entry; the hipped roof’s slope matches that of the historic house. Metal stairs on the primary (north) wall access a paneled, partially-glazed door. One-story, modified L-plan building capped by a combination pyramidal and flat roof, with horizontal wood siding, wood- sash windows, gabled dormers, a corner porch, and interior chimneys. The building is designed in the Queen Anne style. The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate proposed changes to historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the project: 1.1 Locate additions to the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. The proposed addition is located at the side of the historic building, 27’ back from the front wall. The project meets this standard. 1.5 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the least possible invasive location and means. The proposed addition is connected to the side of the existing building behind a projecting bay. The short section of wall includes a window opening. The project meets this standard. 1.6 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Staff believes that the proposed addition is compatible with and differentiated from the historic building. Scale, Massing, and Height 2.1 Design an addition to complement the scale and massing of the historic building, including height. The addition must appear subordinate to the historic building. The proposed addition is one story high, with a ridgeline that is the same height as the adjacent side gable and substantially lower than the principal ridgeline of the historic house. The addition’s plan and massing echo the L-plan and roof shape of the principal house and its gable ends. The project meets this standard. 2.2 Minimize the appearance of the addition from the street faced …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS MAY 24, 2021 HR-2021-063882 ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT 810 LYDIA STREET B.9 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a 1-story accessory dwelling unit (ADU). PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed project is a 1-story ADU clad in horizontal hardiplank siding and capped by a cross-gabled roof covered in asphalt shingles. Features include fixed and single-hung 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows and a fully glazed front door with a bracketed gabled hood. The ADU has a footprint of just over 1,000 square feet. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: New construction shall have the same street orientation and distance from adjacent buildings as the contributing buildings in the same block. The building is located behind the principal building and oriented towards the alley. The project meets this standard. Setbacks for new construction shall be consistent with setbacks of the district’s contributing buildings. The building’s setback is similar to other secondary buildings in the district. The project meets this standard. Design new buildings so that they are compatible with and differentiated from historic buildings in the district. The building’s scale, massing, design, and materials are compatible with nearby historic buildings. Elements such as the roof form, gable-end bargeboards, and 1-over-1 window configuration are notable for their simplicity and compatibility. The project meets this standard. New construction should have floor-to-floor heights and roof heights that are the same or similar to those on contributing buildings throughout the district. The building’s roof height of 18.5’ matches the roof height of the principal building on the property. The project meets this standard. Select materials for new construction that are the same as or similar to those found on contributing buildings existing in the district. The building uses horizontal hardiplank siding compatible with horizontal wood siding found on contributing buildings. Vinyl-sash windows are not typically found on contributing buildings, but the ADU’s location at the rear of the property minimizes the windows’ visibility. The project partly meets this standard. The project generally meets the standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the plans.

There’s so much circumstantial evidence that I wish added up to a clear narrative supporting individual significance. The house is cool and unusual, but I’m struggling to come up with a clear argument that would convince the NPS staff of its individual significance. The archival record is incomplete and hard to reconcile with what we see today. I’m confident that the core house dates to the first decade of the 20th century at the latest. It was modified at some point with the application of stucco and the pop-up roof, and I don’t think these changes would prevent it from contributing to a district. The association with Hegman is sketchy, and even if it could be proven to have been his residence at some point, he lived in other houses as well. Is the house is significant under Criterion B for association with Hegman as a theater owner? The theaters themselves (the Ritz in particular) better represent this aspect of his productive life. Is it significant for its association with Hegman as the developer of a subdivision? I would think the house at 108 E. 48th Street, where he also lived at some point, seems like a better fit. I don’t understand why he would leave the 2-story brick house on a large lot in the heart of his subdivision for a older house immediately to the west. It doesn’t add up. I think the best shot would be Criterion C in the area of architecture, as a modified turn-of-the-century house (I’ll call it Queen Anne Cottage). The key to this argument would be to detail when and by whom the changes were made, AND argue that these changes themselves are architecturally significant. This case would be more easily made if the alterations were of a type that reflected changes in popular taste - we’ve done this in nominations where a house is substantially updated to reflect an entirely new style (often Beaux Arts after the Columbian expo, or an old plantation style perhaps popularized by Gone With the Wind). That’s not the case here, and we can only guess at …

PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The addition is set back approximately 27’ from the front wall and has a footprint of 331 square feet. It is clad in 12” horizontal hardiplank siding, with 1-over-1 vinyl-sash windows. The addition is capped by a combination side-gabled and hipped roof, with a shallow flat roof over the entry; the hipped roof’s slope matches that of the historic house. Metal stairs on the primary (north) wall access a paneled, partially-glazed door. ARCHITECTURE STANDARDS FOR REVIEW One-story, modified L-plan building capped by a combination pyramidal and flat roof, with horizontal wood siding, wood- sash windows, gabled dormers, a corner porch, and interior chimneys. The building is designed in the Queen Anne style. The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate proposed changes to contributing buildings. The following standards apply to the project: New additions should be compatible with the historic building by reflecting the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building, but differentiated enough so that they are not confused as historic or original to the building. If designing an addition in a contemporary style, reflect the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building; if designing an addition in a style that reflects the style of the historic building, differentiate the scale, massing, and/or materials, at least slightly. The proposed addition’s scale, massing, and materials are compatible with and differentiated from the historic building. Its simple style reflects the style of the historic building but will not be mistaken for original construction. The project meets this standard. Design new additions that are subordinate to and do not overpower the historic building. The proposed addition is subordinate to the historic building in terms of scale, massing, and location. Construct additions that avoid the removal or obstruction of any historic exterior features on the front of the building or the sides within 15 feet of the front. Set back a new ground-level addition a minimum of 15 feet measured from the front wall of the building (excluding the porch). The new addition is attached to the side wall and set back 27’ from the front wall. The project meets this standard. Modern materials such as fiber-cement siding are appropriate for …

Ruiz 1805 Waterston - Case No. GF-21060230 Monday, May 24, 2021 11:24:58 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Ms. Allen: I am sending you one copy of the below email, which I sent to all members of the Historic Commission. I didn’t want to fill your in-box with 11 emails. Thank you. Olivia Dear Historical Land Commission Member: Once again, a buyer buys into our Historical District and wants to building a monstrosity modern duplex. I am requesting that you respect the NRHD designation by denying the request to build new homes on the lot. I do not see any compelling reason to tear it down — it is stylishly remodeled both inside and out. Although, I do not appreciate the modern front windows. I bought a house in Clarksville because I want to maintain its historical character. By granting the developer’s request, you contribute to the minimization of the original Black landowners by worked so hard to build these historical houses. I hope and request that you vote against this change and show the original Black owners that their contribution to Austin continues to be appreciated. Thank you. Olivia Ruiz Olivia B.

I have lived in this neighborhood for 30+ years and am a member of the Clarksville Community Development Corporation Board of Directors. 1805 Waterston Avenue is an up-to-date, fully renovated property that recently sold for over $1 million dollars. There is no reason, save greed, for this house to be demolished. . Allowing this 100% livable property, which is also a Clarksville NRHD contributing property, to be demolished for the sole reason of putting something new, larger, and very likely at odds with the existing character of the neighborhood sets a dangerous precedent. Clarksville is a unique neighborhood, deserving of protection. I urge you not to approve this permit.

Paula Kothmann Preservation Chair, SRCC Historic Landmark Commission May 24, 2021 Preservation is better for the environment than demolition. Why don’t investors preserve rather than demolish? One of the biggest reasons that real estate investor seek to demolish their properties is because the property taxes are much too high for the income they can hope to get in residential rentals of older properties. Much more awareness of tax benefits may help stop some of the demolitions. San Antonio, for example, helps train property owners to apply for tax benefits when they preserve certain historic properties. Austin is supposed to be green! Demolition wastes a lot of energy and materials. Property taxes significantly increase holding costs. Recommendation: the property owner should endeavor to lower his taxes by: 1) Protesting his appraised values for the past two years 2) Requesting an income appraisal like that given to the nearby businesses w/ SF3 zoning. a. Why are residential rentals treated as commercial for tax appraisals? b. Why do residents pay such a higher price/sf than businesses? 3) Seeking tax credits for historic preservation because he is in a historic district and will be using the property commercially a. What is the cost to preserve vs rebuild if the owner no longer has to pay City and/or State taxes for 5-10 years? b. How quickly would he be able to get rental income if he preserved vs demolished? The subject property at 71 Rainey is grossly overvalued compared to nearby sites.
