Unfortunately, Amber was mistaken in her assessment, likely due to the complex nature of the site and its unit numbering; she did not consult with our team about either the property’s referral potential or about your communication with her. I recently performed a site visit to this property and determined that the mid-century building located between Windsor and East Windsor roads, previously owned by the Trueman O’Quinn family, would require Commission review due to both its contributing status in the historic district and its potential eligibility as a historic landmark. While Amber is no longer with the City of Austin, please know that I have escalated this issue to our division manager, Zoning Officer Joi Harden, who is also copied on this e-mail.

I visited the property several times. Amber Allen, a Planner in Historic Review, made it clear in writing that the house was not a Contributing Structure and that it would not have to go before the HLC. I know that Mr. Caplan based his decision to purchase the property on her assertions. In my professional opinion as a builder for over fifteen years in Austin, the existing house, a 75 year old simple home, is not a candidate to remodel.

Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Sam, We are writing to Object to the demolition of 2307 Windsor Road - Unit 2, GF 24-030562 . This contributing property was purchased and built by Truman Edgar O'quinn Sr. He was the city attorney, as well as the Travis County, Democratic Chairman and legal counsel for the University of Texas. He was appointed to the Third Court of Civil Appeals and is also known for his role in acquiring the land that later became Bergstrom Air Force Base. Mr. O'Quinn's life as an outstanding citizen of Austin is impressive, but even more important is that the home requesting demolition is an exquisite example of mid-century, modern architecture that deserves to be preserved and restored. Can you kindly confirm who the architect was for this home? O'QUINN, TRUEMAN EDGAR, SR. (1905–1990).Trueman O'Quinn, attorney, judge, and historian, was born in Leesville, Louisiana, on May 7, 1905, to Dallas Patrick and Florence Isabelle (O'Connor) O'Quinn. He was one of three children. In 1917 the family left Vernon Parish and moved to East Texas. As a child, O'Quinn was active in Boy Scouts and eventually became an Eagle Scout. He graduated from Beaumont High School in 1922 and enrolled at the University of Texas that same year. O'Quinn supported himself through college by teaching fencing and writing syndicated news stories. He also served as editor of the Daily Texan, 1927–1928. After completing his bachelor's degree, O'Quinn studied law and passed the bar in 1932. He remained in Austin, where he opened a private practice. O'Quinn's interest in law led him to politics. He was elected to the Forty- Second Texas Legislature and served the 1931–1932 term as a representative for Jefferson County. In 1936, O'Quinn was appointed assistant city attorney of Austin, and by 1939 was city attorney. With the exception of the years he served during World War II, he held the position until 1950. During the war, O'Quinn served in various capacities. He was a lt. colonel in the 101st Airborne Division and fought in four major battles. As Staff Judge Advocate, he supervised court-martial trials in Normandy after the Allied invasion. He also served with the army of occupation …
