City of Austin Historic Landmark Commission Wednesday, October 1, 2025 - 6:00 P.M. City Hall – Council Chambers 301 W. 2nd Street Austin, TX 78701 RE: Review Case No. GF 2025-094899 902 W Johanna St, Austin, TX 78704 To whom it may concern, Our client, Frances Nahas (FEN Holdings LLC), has reviewed the options of rehabilitation, adaptive reuse, material deconstruction, relocation and maintaining the front façade as encouraged by the Architectural Review Committee and, due to the existing structural state of the house and the surgical nature of these approaches, determined them to be cost prohibitive and in the case of relocation, infeasible. We, therefore, on behalf of our client, and after careful review, thought, and with respect for the encouragement of the ARC, we propose to move forward with demolition of the existing home at 902 W Johanna St, Austin, TX 78704 in preparation for a future new construction home.

Austin City Council Members and City Manager Broadnax, February 14, 2025 On behalf of Rally Austin, I am proud to present the Fiscal Year 2024 Annual Report, a testament to our shared vision for an inclusive, culturally vibrant, and economically resilient Austin. This report highlights our collective accomplishments and demonstrates the positive momentum we’ve achieved together to advance equitable development while preserving the unique cultural identity of our city. This year, Rally Austin made significant strides, including:  Surpassing fundraising goals by 22% and securing $428,000 in investments and philanthropic contributions, empowering us to expand our impact across the community.  Cultivating a $152.2 million real estate portfolio, projecting 277,500 square feet of future affordable housing, cultural spaces, and shared-use areas designed to uplift local communities.  Supporting five creative and iconic venues, including the Museum of Human Achievement with $2.5 million in investments, reinforcing Austin's reputation as a hub for creative expression and innovation.  Advancing transformative development projects in the African American Cultural Heritage District, including Blocks 16 and 18, which will provide affordable housing, cultural hubs, and economic opportunities for the community. Looking ahead, Rally recognizes that the journey to create an equitable and thriving Austin is far from over. The demand for affordable creative and cultural spaces continues to grow, as does the need to address disparities across historically underserved neighborhoods. Rally Austin is committed to partnering with City staff to identify and prioritize new opportunities that will bring meaningful and measurable benefits to all communities. Additionally, our team is eager to collaborate with the City to:  Support the evaluation and implementation of large-scale catalytic projects that align with Austin’s growth priorities and deliver sustainable economic benefits.  Expand our efforts to preserve and develop affordable cultural spaces, ensuring that Austin’s creative identity remains accessible and inclusive.  Extend equitable development initiatives to other underserved areas, using the success of Blocks 16 and 18 as a model for future projects.  Explore innovative funding strategies and partnerships that diversify resources and reduce reliance on City funding, ensuring a regional approach and the long-term sustainability of our mission.

September 30, 2025 RE: Calhoun House Historic Landmark Designation Dear Chair Heimsath, Vice Chair Evans, and members of the Austin Historic Landmark Commission, Preservation Austin exists to empower Austinites to shape a more inclusive, resilient, and meaningful community culture through preservation. We write today in support of historic designation for 2401 Givens Avenue, also known as the Calhoun House, for its historic associations and community value. This home and the people who lived there embody the invaluable contributions Black Austinites made to our city during the 20th and 21st centuries. We are proud to partner with the home’s owner, our friend Ms. Patricia Calhoun, in preparing this much-deserved nomination. The Calhoun House was built in 1959 by Theodore “T.C.” Calhoun and Thelma Dotson Calhoun in the Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross neighborhood, one of Austin’s first suburban developments built by and for Black Austinites during segregation. The Calhouns were educators and civic leaders in Austin’s Black community during the mid-twentieth century, when “separate but equal” policies hindered Black prosperity. Mr. Calhoun was the longtime principal of Kealing Middle School, Austin’s only middle school for Black students. Mrs. Calhoun was a Jeanes supervisor for segregated rural schools and later a reading specialist. Both were active leaders of Ebenezer Third Baptist Church and held significant civic roles, including with the Austin Negro Chamber of Commerce and the Teacher’s State Association of Texas. T.C. and Thelma Calhoun created an enduring legacy and helped build community for Black Austinites, establishing a tradition of excellence in education and service that marks an inspiring chapter in Austin’s history. Their leadership lives on in their daughter Pat, who sees the Calhoun House as her personal legacy. Among her many accomplishments, Pat was a leader in the grassroots effort to designate Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross as a historic district and preserve this remarkable community’s story. Preservation Austin is honored to call Pat our partner and friend of nearly a decade. From early support for the historic district effort, to our documentary that tells the story of this incredible neighborhood, Pat’s partnership and generosity have made an indelible impact on our organization. We are thrilled and proud to support the designation of the Calhoun House as a City of Austin Landmark. Thank you for your consideration and your service to the City of Austin. Sincerely, Miriam Conner, President

My opposition is based both on the buildings' historical value, and also my concern for damage to a number of protected heritage live oaks on the parcel. I would appreciate it if you circulated my views with the Commission members and entered my position in the record. Please advise me as this case evolves. Thank you.

My disapproval stems from the following items: The single family home is generally in a good state of repair and represents the style of home original to this neighborhood. I don’t understand the purpose of having a historic preservation area if we aren’t going to preserve history We live in a similar bungalow-style home on the same block which has been restored/renovated/added on to. No reason the same work can’t be done before demolition There are numerous BEAUTIFUL LARGE live oak and other native trees on this property that I would be very concerned about damage to. Especially given the location just across the street from the park, these trees are very prominent in the neighborhood The home directly next to this one (512 E Monroe) also had an application to be demolished. The commission heard similar arguments and the home was restored and is now occupied. That home was in significantly worse condition (i.e. hypothetically would’ve been a more reasonable demolition candidate) so I wouldn’t understand why this home would be treated differently There is limited affordable housing in this neighborhood, and this property has multiple units which I fear would be replaced. We should not be removing supply from the area Let me know if you need any other information from me. But I oppose this demolition.

Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution To Whom It May Concern, We, the owners of 2510 Wooldridge Drive, object to the application to demolish 2514 Wooldridge Drive. Like many of the beautiful homes on Wooldridge drive, 2514 Wooldridge was built in the 1930s and represents an excellent example of early Pemberton Heights architecture, worthy of preservation. Demolition of this historic home would be devastating to the architectural continuity and historic fabric of Wooldridge Drive. These homes are not just structures, they are artifacts of Central Austin’s early development and embody the charm, scale, and character that make our neighborhood unique. Preserving these homes safeguards the identity of Pemberton Heights and ensures that future generations can experience this rare and irreplaceable piece of Austin’s history. Additionally, the “streetscape” - the symmetry of the lots and homes on our block - is another example of what makes our neighborhood special and beautiful. Wooldridge is an old and historic street. The style and scale of the proposed new home does not fit with our block. If a new home is to be built in this location, we would hope it would fit more closely with the integrity of our streetscape.

This house is not demo worthy and destroys the fabric of the architectural heritage of one of Austin’s jewels in time. There are so many other options for home builders to purchase land sized to their desired larger home without destroying the beauty, warmth and history of our heritage homes in old Austin. These can not be brought back once demolished and history will be wiped away. I do not care how they redo the inside and addition to a home to suit their needs but should be required to leave the existing front of the home to be left as it was built and intended for Pemberton Heights history.

From: To: Subject: Date: Historic Preservation Office; Contreras, Kalan; McKnight, Kim 2514 Wooldridge Drive- request to deny application Tuesday, September 30, 2025 2:29:51 PM You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution To Whom It May Concern, I am reaching out as I object to the application to demolish 2514 Wooldridge Drive. As a designer, I believe something that is so beautiful and special about the neighborhood is that it’s kept the integrity of its original homes and storied past. I believe this house is worthy of preservation being built in the 30’s on one of the most prestigious streets in Austin. The scale of this home does not feel appropriate for the location. Please decline this application and keep this beautiful historic home. Sincerely, Kristen and Lee Nix 2409 Pemberton Place CAUTION: This is an EXTERNAL email.
