HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-1555-42 BRASS-MILAM HOUSE 1409 NEWNING 11.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolition and new construction of entryway door and surround. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Entryway fabrication to include non-original door replacement, transom repair, and side light alteration ARCHITECTURE & RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS 1409 Newning was designated a local historic landmark in February 1992. 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 at historic. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The project proposes to demolish and rebuild the historic main façade entry assembly. This approach would not only destroy the original historic design and fabric but the new design creates a sense of false historicism. 1.1 Do not remove intact historic material from the exterior of a building. 1.2 Always attempt repair first. Replacement should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary and for the smallest area possible. 1.3 When historic material must be replaced due to damage or deterioration, replacement materials should look the same, perform reliably within the existing construction, and, in most cases, be made of the same material. 1.4 Do not attempt to re-create an architectural detail or element without proof that it existed on the building historically. Documentation can be physical (traces on the building), written (such as building plans), or photographic. 5. Windows, doors and screens If the door is non-original it should be replaced with a new unit based on documentation of the historic door or a new design compatible with the historic opening. The same approach should be taken with the windows in the door assembly. Repairing rather than replacing the transom is appropriate. 5.1 Repair, rather than replace, historic windows, doors, and screens; and their trim, surrounds, sidelights, transoms, and shutters, unless they are deteriorated beyond the point of stabilization or restoration. Retain windows if 50% or more of the wood or metal sash members are intact. a. Using modern material in repairs and patches is a possibility if the material has proven appropriate and stable in similar uses. 5.3 If historic windows must be replaced, match the size and details of the existing window, including configuration, profile, and finish. Take into account elements such as frames, sashes, muntins, sills, heads, moldings, surrounds, hardware, and shutters. 5.5 Do …

13– 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR- 2022-156160 W. B. SMITH BUILDING 316 CONGRESS AVENUE PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a new tower addition to the W. B. Smith Building and adjacent historic age buildings. 1.Stabilize & preserve north & east (street facing) wall 2. Deconstruct & reconstruct portions of the south wall 3. Demolish the west (alley) wall. 4. Build a new tower construction setback 20’ from the historic façade. ARCHITECTURE The W. B. Smith building (316-318 Congress Avenue) was zoned a local landmark in 1982; Joseph Hume may have built it in 1883. W. B. Smith, a dry goods merchant, bought the property in 1884, and the family retained ownership until 1917. An Austin Up to Date, 1894 article describes W.B. Smith, dry goods as “a well-known old and important established business house of this City.” 1 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 at historic landmarks. The following standards apply to the proposed project: DESIGN STANDARDS Commercial additions 1. Location An addition should preserve the character of the historic building and site. Visual subordinance to and compatibility with the historic building can be achieved through location, scale, massing, design, and materials. 1.1 Locate additions at the rear and sides of historic buildings to minimize visual impact. 1.2 Set back additions from the front wall at a distance that preserves the perceived massing of the historic building, considering the pedestrian view from the opposite side of the primary street. a. Additions must be set back at least 20’ from the front wall of the historic building. 1.3 Minimize the loss of historic fabric by connecting additions to the existing building through the most noninvasive location and methods. 1.4 Additions are not appropriate for all historic landmarks and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The addition is located at the property’s rear and initially setback 20 feet from the historic façade. However, there is a significant or total loss of fabric in all other locations, including the rear and side walls. 2. Scale, massing, and height 2.1 Design the addition to complement the scale and massing of the historic building. 2.2 Design the addition to appear subordinate to the historic building. 2.3 Minimize the appearance of the addition from the primary street(s). …

16 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-146276 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1506 W. 32ND STREET PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Demolish a ca. 1938 house and detached garage and replace with new construction. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing house and detached garage. 2) Construct new residence. The proposed new building is two stories in height, oriented with the garage fronting on 32nd Street. It is composed of four hipped-roof rectangular masses, connected by hyphens. It is clad in unpainted cedar and stone, with fenestration comprising mostly fixed and undivided windows of various dimensions with regular rhythm at secondary façades. One-story Minimal Traditional house with cross-gabled roof, boxed cornice returns, arched front door, and brick veneer cladding. Replacement windows are 1:1. The house at 1506 W. 32nd Street, listed in City directories as 1508 W. 32nd Street, was constructed in 1938 for Jack Underwood and his family. Underwood, who worked as a salesman before serving in the Army during World War II, sold the house to William and Lillian Chenault in the late 1940s. Chenault worked as a farmer, and his two grown daughters, Polly and Sadie, lived at home while they worked and went to school. Around 1950, Ernest E. and Helen Hawkins purchased the property. Ernest Hawkins was a sales manager at Jack Stableford Pontiac. 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 building appears appropriately set back from the street. 2. Orientation The proposed building’s orientation is not consistent with the predominant orientation of contributing buildings on the same block. 3. Scale, massing, and height and 4. Proportions The proposed building’s scale, massing, and height are not consistent with the character of the surrounding district; however, much of the incompatible massing does not appear to be highly visible from the street due to lot topography. 5. Design and style The proposed building is acceptably differentiated from nearby historic buildings, but the design and style do not respond to the character of the district. 6. Roofs The proposed hipped roof forms are compatible. 7. Exterior walls The proposed masonry and wood siding are somewhat compatible, though brick is a more appropriate masonry choice for …

Historic Review Proposed Work Narrative 1506 W 32nd St We propose to build a new residence for a young family with generational roots in the Bryker Woods Neighborhood. The existing structures on the property are in disrepair and have been modified over time, presumably without permit and without regard to historical design standards. Little stewardship of the natural landscape has been undertaken and the site is in severe degradation from neglect. Our proposal is considerate of trees, topography, natural light, material, texture, scale, setbacks, development guidelines, soil conditions, efficiency and economy. The site contains Del Rio clay, arguably the most expansive clay in our area, dictating a pier supported foundation. The discreet rectangular forms allow for an economical layout and a limited required quantity of piers. These discreet forms are linked by simple bridge connections. The severe slope of the site, a desire to limit hardscape/ impervious cover and a Garage Placement overlay have positioned the garage at the front of the property while also providing the necessary width for side‐loaded garage access. The discreet forms step down along the descending natural grade to remain rooted into the site. To comply with the Visitability Ordinance, the entry to the house occurs at the mid‐point of the linear footprint, connecting to a centrally located stair with rooms radiating from the central stair core providing efficient circulation. The siting of the house is organized along a central spine allowing for generous natural buffer zones between the flanking properties, further diminishing the scale of the house at the street and providing spaces ripe for rich and textured landscaping. The forms, shapes, materials and finishes are free from particular stylistic reference, concerned more with a simple and composed elegance through careful and thoughtful detailing. The fundamental construction techniques present in the design can be traced back to a rich architectural history of pragmatism.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 2, 2022 HR-2022-152876 OLD WEST AUSTIN 2512 WOOLDRIDGE DRIVE 17 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1937 contributing house and detached garage and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Construct a two-story masonry house with attached carport. The proposed house’s fenestration includes divided-light windows and arched doorways. A one-story mass, connected via carport, extends diagonally from the house’s main two- story form. Two-story asymmetrical Tudor Revival house clad in stucco with faux half-timbering at gable ends and covered entryway. The house at 2512 Wooldridge Drive was constructed for Annie Beasley in 1937. Early residents included a rancher and his family and a University of Texas professor. The house’s longest-term occupants in the early and mid-twentieth century were Janice and Vernon McGee. Janice McGee, a violinist, was a charter member of the Austin Symphony and served on a screening committee for symphony hopefuls. Vernon McGee began his career as a Capitol reporter but later became the first executive director of the Texas State Employment Commission. McGee was later appointed staff director of the Texas State Legislative Budget Board, where he served until the late 1960s. He then worked as an administrative chief of staff under Governor Preston Smith. 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.mThe following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building appears to be appropriately sited and set back. 2. Orientation The proposed building’s orientation is consistent with the design standards. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s scale and height appears appropriate. While the diagonal massing of the one-story portion of the house is not in keeping with the surrounding district, it does not appear highly visible from the street. 4. Proportions The proposed building’s proportions, design, and style appear to somewhat reflect those of the surrounding district. 6. Roofs The proposed cross-gabled roof at the house’s main mass is compatible; while the flat-roofed porch and shed dormers are less so, they appear to help break up the monolithic massing at the two-story portion of the house. 7. Exterior walls The proposed masonry is mostly compatible with the surrounding district, though brick or stucco would be a more appropriate cladding choice. 8. Windows …
