ARCHITECTURE Two-part commercial block ca. 1888. 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 at historic landmarks.

9 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 6, 2024 HR-2024-005147 SIXTH STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 603 RED RIVER STREET PROPOSAL Remodel a ca. 1889-1900 building from a bar to a restaurant. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Repair and repaint the existing brick façade. 2) Remove non-historic accretions and connections at secondary elevations. Add a new shade structure and plantings at the north elevation. 3) Add brick detail on the west façade. 4) Retain the existing openings and replace the storefront. Reopen infilled openings at secondary elevations. 5) Replace awning. One-story masonry garage building with two bay doors, a metal awning with enlarged brackets, simple cornice detailing, and infilled arched openings at secondary elevations. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH The building at 603 Red River Street, alternately addressed as 601 and 605 Red River Street, was most likely first constructed as a one-bay frame structure with a stovepipe visible on 1889 Sanborn maps. By 1900, the building was reclad, and a masonry addition had been built to add the second (northernmost) bay. It appears to have been built and used as a blacksmith shop until 1920, when it was converted to an auto service station; by 1935 an addition had been constructed. A motorcycle and automobile repair shop shared the building until 1927, when both halves were occupied by Raven’s Garage. Raven’s stayed in business until at least 1959. Jesse L. Raven, a World War I veteran who enlisted at eighteen, opened the shop upon his return from the war. Raven was also an officer of the American Legion and executive officer of the Texas State Rifle Association; he remained a nationally recognized top marksman for much of the early twentieth century. According to a 2015 staff report by Historic Preservation Officer Steve Sadowsky for the Raven family home in Travis Heights (which was later demolished, despite the staff recommendation for landmark designation), the Raven’s Garage legacy continued after its days as a functional garage ended: Jesse Raven, along with his brother, Louis, grew up in Austin and were auto mechanics from a very early age. They opened Raven’s Garage at 605 Red River Street in the early 1920s and were in business at that location until around 1980. The building on Red River Street was then a live music club called Raven’s Garage for a couple of years in the 1980s, and later became Emo’s, the stalwart of …

March 05, 2024 Re: 4601 Chiappero Trail renovations David and Emily Tucker: Thank you for recently sharing your latest remodel/renovation plans for our old family home at 4601 Chiappero Trail in Austin that you purchased from us a couple of years ago. We can see that you have again invested considerable time, energy, and passion into your plans to modernize the home to accommodate your family's needs, while paying tribute to our father's original 1960 Mid Century Modern design. We especially are in favor of keeping the front elevation mostly true to the original design. Our preferences would be to retain all the original ledgestone and redwood siding on those portions of the house visible from the curb. As discussed, my father's original intention was to leave the redwood untreated and allow it to naturally weather to a gray color. Unfortunately the original builders errantly applied a "redwood" stain to the redwood. The effects of the stain can be mitigated by following recommendations from the California Redwood Association (attached). We are in favor of your plans to retain the ledgestone planter and chimney, as well as to retain the ledgestone on the interior walls (entry/dining and the hearth wall). And we would also be in favor of retaining the original jalousie windows on the living room wall facing the street, acknowledging that they are not energy efficient. In regards to the spiral staircase on the front of the house, our parents added it as a cosmetic feature in the mid-1990s, so it is neither part of the original design nor MCM. Repurposing the staircase to the backyard studio concept or elsewhere would be appropriate in our opinion. Best regards - Robin Willhoite. cell (936) 462-34
