ARCHITECTURE 2-story irregular-plan house clad in masonry and lap siding. Features include 6-over-6 wood-sash and casement vinyl-sash windows, a masonry chimney, and a covered porch and 2-story attached garage at the rear, facing Stark Place. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The project has four parts: 1) Replace all windows with 6-over-6 clad-wood windows; 2) Enlarge and replace the front entrance from a single door with sidelights to paired multi-lite clad-wood doors; 3) Replace two garage doors with one double-with roll-up paneled metal garage door; 4) On the north (rear) wall, remove covered exterior stairs and a small attached closet and RESEARCH at the ground floor. The house was constructed around 1937 by James G. and Ethel Umstattd, who lived there at least until 1970 with an interruption around 1949. In 1952 and 1959, the Umstattds shared the building with a renter in a rear unit. Dr. James Greenleaf Umstattd was born in 1896 in Missouri. After finishing high school, James taught at a local school while he earned a B.S. in education from Northeast Missouri State Teachers College. He enrolled in the U.S. Navy during World War I. Afterwards, he worked as a high school teacher and supervisor in West Virginia, while earning his master’s degree from the University of Missouri. He received a doctorate from the University of Minnesota, then moved to Detroit to teach at Wayne State University. In 1938, Greenleaf moved to Austin to teach in the University of Texas’s School of Education, where he remained until 1972. During World War II, he took a one-year break to teach at Biarritz American University in France, returning to the U.S. in 1946. During his time at UT, Umstattd published at least five books and received a teaching excellence award from the UT Students’ Association (1963). James Umstaddt died in Austin in 1988. Martha Ethel McNutt Umstattd was born around 1896 in Kentucky. She married James Umstaddt in 1918; the couple had two sons. She was active in the Delta Gamma sorority alumni chapter, the University Ladies Club, and the Austin Woman’s Club. Martha Umstattd died in Austin in 1970. C.6 - 2 STANDARDS FOR …

C.7 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS APRIL 27, 2020 NRD-2020-0019 613 WEST LYNN STREET WEST LINE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Construct a 2-story addition to a 2-story house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Remove deck and demolish rear wall. 2) Demolish shed. 3) Construct a 2-story rear addition. The proposed addition is clad in wood siding that mirrors the existing in orientation, material, and profile. All trim and windows, including the 9:1 screens, will match the historic building’s. The roof slope, metal finish, rear clipped gable, exposed rafter tails, and brackets at soffit will match the existing roof and decorative elements as well. RESEARCH The house was built between 1922 and 1924 by carpenter and contractor Carl Quick and his wife Dora. The Quick family lived there until 1937; they may have been acquainted with its new occupants, Eugene and Mary Bybee. Eugene Bybee, called Gene, owned a business selling coin- operated vending and slot machines at 209 Congress Avenue. After the Bybees moved, the home’s residents included various short-term renters. Among these were service station employees, a meter reader, and a clerk. During the 1950s, insurance agent Wilford Chapman and his wife Margaret occupied the home. 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. The proposed addition does not compromise the building’s character-defining features, spaces, or materials. 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 modifications remove minimal historic fabric from the rear of the building. New work is not visible from the street and is compatible with the massing, size, scale, and features of the historic building; however, the proposed addition may not be adequately differentiated from the existing. It may be appropriate to incorporate subtle design changes that distinguish new and old material, such as removing period-style decorative elements from the rear elevation or adding vertical trim between the addition …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS APRIL 27, 2020 612 EAST 6TH STREET C.8 - 1 SIXTH STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPOSAL Install a blade sign on a building located in the Sixth Street National Register Historic District. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed design features a projecting 3’-diameter circular aluminum cabinet, mounted to the building with aluminum brackets. The sign’s logo is made of flat white aluminum, illuminated with “faux neon” LED lighting. Routed letters below the logo are backed with white acrylic and lit by internal LEDs. STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Historic Landmark Commission applies the following standards when reviewing sign applications within National Register historic districts: Number of Signs: The Commission allows one sign per building, unless the building has multiple tenants; in this case, the Commission may allow one sign per façade module, if the façade modules correspond to tenant spaces. The Commission may also allow one sign for each street frontage if the building is at an intersection. A single directory sign is appropriate for a large building with multiple tenants. The proposed blade sign is the second sign advertising this second-floor tenant. The tenant’s previous flush-mounted sign was approved upon the condition that the applicant redesign the sign’s lighting and reduce its size. The proposed sign would be the fourth on the building. The existing first-floor tenant’s blade sign and flush-mounted sign were installed around 2016 without review by the Historic Preservation Office or Historic Landmark Commission. Sign Types: The Commission may allow window signs, awning signs, projecting signs, and flush mounted signs for most commercial buildings. The proposal is for a projecting sign. Sign Size: The maximum size for signs depends on the sign type. Projecting (blade) signs: 6 square feet. The proposed circular sign measures 3 feet in diameter. Its area is approximately 7.07 ft2. Sign Design, Coloring and Materials: Use simple shapes, such as rectangular or oval signs. The Commission recommends painted wood or metal signs with matte finishes for all signs; plastic, reflective materials, and unfinished surfaces are not allowed. Limit the colors used in a sign to no more than three. For sites with multiple signs, all signs should have corresponding or matching designs, coloring and materials. Signs should match or complement the existing color scheme of the building to the maximum extent feasible. Lettering: No more than two typefaces are allowed. Avoid lettering which appears too …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 23, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0045 1001 LOTT AVENUE D.1 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1975 church building. ARCHITECTURE One-story rectangular-plan church building with asymmetrical gabled roof and gabled portico. The building is clad in horizontal wood siding and brick, and features a breezeway supported by squared wood posts at the north elevation. Fenestration at the north and south walls consists of regularly-spaced aluminum windows, covered by decorative iron bars. RESEARCH The building at the corner of Lott Avenue and Prock Lane was constructed around 1975 for the Iglesia Apostolica congregation, and was later known as the Templo Maranatha. There few extant permits or biographical records for the church, though aerials and streetscape photos show several modifications from the original rectangular plan and signage suggests at least one name change. Between the 1970s and 1990s the breezeway and roof extension were added, and a series of sheds were constructed to the rear of the building. Repairs and remodels took place during the 2010s, including removal of latticework from the breezeway, deconstruction of a plywood rear addition and shed, and removal of the steeple. STAFF COMMENTS Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is under 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2- 352). The property does not appear to demonstrate significance according to City Code: a) Architecture. The building does not appear to convey architectural significance. b) Historical association. 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 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. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 23, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0067 3503 E. 17TH STREET D.2 - 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca.1965 church building, converted to a single-family residence in 2005. One-story rectangular-plan church building with gabled roof clad in composite shingles, with a gabled covered entryway supported by simple columns and a hip-roofed cupola that once featured a steeple. The building is constructed with CMU and has vertical wood accent cladding at its main façade. Sliding aluminum picture windows at secondary façades are interspersed with smaller fixed-pane and glass block windows. The metal door is flanked by three-paned sidelights. The building at 3503 East 17th Street was constructed in 1964-65 as a meeting and worship space for the Free Church of God and Christ in Jesus Name, a small Pentecostal congregation. Led by Bishop E. Evans of Dallas, the Austin congregation began meeting in 1962, with members periodically meeting at their homes, though the Free Church of God was officially chartered here in 1930. Elder T. Cleveland served as pastor. By 1973, the church had changed its name to True Pentecost Church of the Lord Jesus. In 2005, the Pentecostal Church sold the building, which was then converted to a single-family residence. STAFF COMMENTS Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2- 352).

ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story, rectangular-plan, front-gabled frame bungalow with a partial-width front-gabled partially-inset porch on plain, square wood posts; single and paired 1:1 fenestration. The house was built by local builder Frank Rundell in 1926; the first owners and occupants were Leslie and Orlean Stephens, who lived here until around 1928. Leslie Stephens was a clerk for the Southern Pacific Railroad. The next owners and occupants of the house were Alex K. and Ellen Abramson, who lived here from 1928 until around 1965. Alex Abramson was a city fireman until his retirement in 1955. Following the residency of the Abramsons the house was purchased by Santos and Anita Salinas, who lived here from around 1965 until their deaths. Santos G. Salinas was a maintenance man at the Scarbrough Building in downtown Austin. He passed away in 2004; Anita G. Salinas passed away in 2018. STAFF COMMENTS The house was recommended as contributing to the potential South East Austin historic district by the East Austin Historic Resource Survey (2016). 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 house is a vernacular bungalow. The house reflects a common style with no architectural distinction. D.3 - 2 b. Historical association. The house was the home of several blue collar working families over the years: a railroad clerk, a city fireman, and a maintenance man. 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 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.

D.4 - 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APRIL 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0086 200-06 E. 4TH STREET PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1910 warehouse. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, flat-roofed brick commercial warehouse building with a raised concrete loading platform along the south (4th Street) elevation. The building has single, rectangular fenestration in segmental-arched openings; all windows have been replaced with plate glass. Each window opening has a rectangular transom above, with a raised brick sill and lintel. Above the transoms is a belt course of raised brick, tapering from top to bottom; above the belt course is a flat-topped parapet with a tablet defined by raised brick. The building has a non-historic continuous metal awning along the south (4th Street) elevation; it replaced a historic metal awning. There is a modern, one-story rooftop addition to the building, set back from the exterior walls. RESEARCH Marks Grain Company, a wholesale and retail feed, hay, and grain business, built this building in phases as its warehouse. At the time the first section was built, around 1910, at the northeast corner of 4th and Brazos Streets, the remainder of the block eastward on 4th Street was still residential; the 1900 Sanborn map shows a line of relatively large houses along the north side of E. 4th Street. Marks Grain Company was established by brothers Harry and Charles Marks before the turn of the 20th century. The 1909-10 city directory, issued just prior to their construction of this building, shows Marks Grain Company at 406 Congress Avenue and their warehouse at the southeast corner of 3rd and Brazos Streets, a block south of the current building. Around 1912, their business address changed to 200-04 E. 4th Street, indicating an expansion to the building. No residences remained to the east of the building along E. 4th Street. By 1920, according to the city directory of that year, the business address for Marks Grain Company was 200-08 E. 4th Street, indicating an additional, and final expansion of the warehouse. Both Harry and Charles Marks died in 1924, within a few months of each other. The business continued out of this building, with James S. Howse as the manager, until around 1931. Lolla Marks, the widow of Harry Marks, is listed as the president of the company in the 1932-33 city directory, the last that the company is listed. Between 1924 and 1931, the Marks successors began leasing …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APRIL 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0095 601 W. 26TH STREET D.5 - 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 …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APRIL 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0123 2513 EAST 4TH STREET D.6 - 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE Demolish a ca. 1939 house and garage. One-story rock veneer residence with gabled roof covered in composition shingles. Shallow triangular arches surround the covered porch, and decorative iron security bars cover the 6:6 vinyl replacement windows. The street-facing gable end is clad in vertical wood siding. RESEARCH STAFF COMMENTS The home was built in 1937 by developer M.E. Chernosky. Matilde Briseno and his wife Maria purchased it shortly after their marriage in 1939. That same year, Matilde filed a permit to apply the home’s existing rock veneer. Matilde Briseno worked as a groundsman and garage employee of the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company. The Briseno family lived at the home until at least 1959. The house and garage are not recommended for local or National Register designation in the 2016 East Austin Historic Resource Survey. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate integrity. 3) Properties must meet two historic designation criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2- 352). The property does not appear to demonstrate significance according to City Code: a) Architecture. The building does not appear to convey architectural significance. b) Historical association. The building does not appear to have 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.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION MARCH 23, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0139 1519 E. CESAR CHAVEZ STREET D.7 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1904 commercial building with a ca. 1939 addition. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, flat-roofed painted brick commercial building with two sections, the eastern half being the older (ca. 1904) of the two, and characterized by a raised brick elongated tablet in the front wall. The western half of the building appears to date from around 1939, and differs from the eastern half in its lack of ornamentation. All original windows and doors on the building have been replaced with modern, aluminum- framed units. The window openings all have raised brick sills. Along the east elevation is a double row of 3 small, rectangular, fixed-sash windows forming a sort of clerestory; each window also has raised brick sills. RESEARCH The section of the building on the corner was built around 1904 as the grocery store of Ernst F.A. Martin, who immigrated from Germany and had previously had a neighborhood grocery on E. 4th Street. Around 1904, he moved his operations to this site, and built this brick store building along with an attached residence to the west. He stayed in business here until around 1911, when he sold the property to William C. Blundell. Blundell also operated a grocery store here and lived in the adjoining house with his family. Blundell stayed in business here until around 1939. He and his wife then moved to 38th and Speedway, and he became an assistant postmaster for the Texas House of Representatives. He sold the grocery business to Thomas and Mamie Beatty, who are believed to have been the ones to enlarge the store, reducing the size of the attached dwelling unit (although it may have been W.C. Blundell, as there is a water service permit to him dating from 1939). Thomas and Mamie Beatty are listed in the 1940 city directory as living on this site, but that is the last directory to indicate a residential use by the owners of the adjacent store. After a few short-term grocery owners after the Beatty Food Store, Benjamin Anderson’s grocery store here became a Red and White Grocery Store franchise around 1954, and remained in business here until around 1958. The building was then occupied by City Auto Parts, a retail auto parts store operated by Charlie C. Rogers and Thomas Landford at …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APRIL 27, 2020 DEMOLITION AND RELOCATION PERMITS HDP-2020-0153 311 W. 6TH STREET D.8 - 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1927 commercial building. ARCHITECTURE One-story, rectangular-plan, flat-roofed brick commercial building with a decorative stepped parapet and raised brick belt courses in the front wall and corner posts; modern, replacement metal and plate-glass storefront. The original ca. 1927 building has a ca. 1991 addition to the right, which resembles the original building in materials, scale, and ornamentation, but is set back from the façade of the original building. RESEARCH The building appears to date from ca. 1927, and was first the home of a Maytag appliance store, which was in business here until around 1931. Interestingly, prior to the construction of this building, the Salvation Army Hall was on this site, reflecting that this section of downtown still had its rough edges as a part of the city’s old red-light district, with saloons, gambling halls, and warehouses dominating the neighborhood to the south. Italian immigrants Onorato del Curto and Pasquale Caruso opened the Standard Market delicatessen here in 1931; Caruso and his family lived in the house just south of the building for many years. Caruso became the sole proprietor of the business around 1933 and changed the name to Caruso’s Café and Delicatessen, and was one of a very small number of Austin restaurants serving Italian food at the time. Caruso dropped the delicatessen aspect of the business in the mid-1950s; Caruso’s Café was in business here until he passed away in 1966. The building has had several subsequent restaurants since Caruso’s closed, and remains a restaurant space today. There is a ca. 1991 addition to the west of the original building. STAFF COMMENTS The building was listed as a Priority 2 for research in the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984). Staff has evaluated this building for designation as a historic landmark and has determined that the building does not meet the criteria for landmark designation as set forth in City Code: a. Architecture. The building is a one-story brick commercial building with some ornamental brickwork in the raised bricks forming patterns in the storefront and the stepped parapet wall; however, the storefront has been modified with the installation of a modern metal-framed window and door system. The building reflects a common type and does not appear to have the architectural distinction to qualify as a historic landmark. …

PROPERTY OWNER: Hilltop Venture SH (TX) LP (Edward Johnson) AGENT: Johnson Trube and Associates (Edward Johnson) CASE MANAGER Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommendation is to grant commercial-liquor sales – mixed use - historic landmark – neighborhood plan (CS-1-MU-H-NP) combining district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION: April 27, 2020 PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: MAY 26, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 11, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES No issues have been identified for this request. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject historic building is surrounded by a new eight story student housing building on the northwest corner of West 24th Street and San Gabriel Street, addressed as 2402 San Gabriel C14-2020-0032 2 Street. The two-story limestone building, is a designated Austin Historic Landmark known variously as the Austin Gold Dollar building, Reverend Jacob Fontaine building, Franzetti’s grocery store and Freedman’s building. The request is for a building footprint rezoning of 0.083 acres (3,621square feet) to permit a cocktail lounge/restaurant in the historic building. Several new, midrise residential buildings have been built north of West 24th Street. Some of the new buildings are mixed use with ground floor retail and personal service uses. There are wide sidewalks and under-building parking. These features make the neighborhood walkable. Much of the demand for goods and services in this mixed-use neighborhood will come from the residents and workers within the neighborhood. The stone structure built in 1869, is the last remaining building from Wheatsville, an African- American neighborhood. The building was the home of Rev. Jacob Fontaine, a Baptist minister and former slave known for his community leadership and newspaper publishing. In 1876, Fontaine founded and published the Austin Gold Dollar, a weekly newspaper from his home, the two-story, limestone building. Austin Gold Dollar was the first black newspaper west of the Mississippi River. Fontaine also established the New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in the building in 1887 and later operated a laundry and grocery in the building. The Franzetti family purchased the building in the 1920s and added a wooden porch to the façade in 1923. Members of the Franzetti family lived in the building until the …
