HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 2, 2024 HR-2024-111352 ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT 1003 EAST 8TH STREET 11.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a second housing unit. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS DESIGN STANDARDS Construction of a detached housing unit at the rear of the property to create a two-unit development on the plot. The second unit has a two-story design and is proposed to be located at the rear of the driveway at the southeast corner of the lot. The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction The design of the proposed second housing unit is contemporary, and generally blends well with the main house, which was constructed outside the period of significance for the neighborhood. Its location is at the rear corner of the lot, which creates a larger setback than its neighbors, but the proximity from building to building is a far enough distance to allow each to be read as separate, distinct and also does not read as an attached addition. Though the design can’t be described as compatible with historic resources in the district in terms of setback or material cladding, it does fit with the non-contributing main house. The second housing unit closely aligns with the ceiling height of the main house at both floors. The grade changes in this section of the district make it difficult to read even one-story contributing structures as being level, but the proposed floor grades are typical of neighboring properties. The cladding material is set at a vertical orientation, which is not typical among the surrounding properties. For entry and orientation, the unit faces the street, like the main house, and features a side porch that does not seek to inappropriately emulate a front porch that would be more fitting closer to the street. Summary The project mostly meets the applicable standards. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Per the local district design guidelines, a contemporary appearance is permitted, and, in this case, fits well with the main house currently on site. The design appears to be slightly tall, but it conforms to the 32-foot maximum height allowed by the design standards. Overall, a compatible design for this lot and size. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the application. LOCATION MAP 11.0 – 2 PROPERTY INFORMATION Photos 11.0 – 3 Google Streetview, 2024

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 2, 2024 HR-2024-122011 THOMAS CRANFILL HOUSE 1901 CLIFF STREET 12 – 1 Construct a rear deck, fireplace, and pergola. Infill one rear window. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Expand existing wood deck at south (rear) elevation. 2) Construct new metal pergola and outdoor fireplace at rear of house. 3) Infill existing window at south elevation. PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STANDARDS One-story Modern house with compound hipped roof, stained cedar board-and-batten siding, and undivided picture and casement windows of varying horizontally oriented configurations. 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: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project infills one historic-age window and replaces another with doors and a central full-height window. 4. Exterior walls and trim Proposed infill material will match the existing vertical siding. 5. Windows, doors, and screens The proposed project infills one rear casement window, a modification which does not appear to be required by the deck addition. A previously approved window modification at the south elevation compatibly converts a window to an access point for the deck, which enhances functionality while retaining the existing window rhythm of the house. Non-destructive, removable enclosure of the remaining window from the inside of the building should be considered if feasible. Residential additions 7. Porches and Decks The proposed deck is low in profile and will not be visible from the street. The proposed metal trellis does not appear to be visible from the street or above the house’s roofline. The proposed fireplace is detached and appears to be an easily removable site appurtenance. Summary The project mostly meets the applicable standards, except for the window infill. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the application but strongly encourage retention and/or non-destructive, removable enclosure of the rear window from the inside of the building rather than infill.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OCTOBER 2, 2024 HR-2024-121988 GRAVES HOUSE 2 GREEN LANES 13.0 – 1 PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS wraparound porch. ARCHITECTURE Construct a rear addition, restore fixtures to historic appearance, remove second floor addition and create balcony at front. 1) Demolish southwest corner of ground floor and rebuild with expanded footprint, creating a kitchen, family room, and 2) Demolish non-historic second floor addition above current garage. 3) Recreate elements of the 1937 design and construct a second-floor space at the front that adheres to historic drawings. 4) Restore all wood windows. 5) Replace garage doors with assemblies more aligned with original drawings. The Graves House is a 1938 Colonial Revival House designed by local architect H.F. Kuehne in the Old West Austin Historic District. Original drawings show a main symmetrical house with a center door along with a garage wing with a two-car garage and second floor featuring dormer windows above it. Later alterations saw a second floor constructed above the garage that eliminated the dormers and created a front facing gable, which is the current appearance. The main house has remained largely the same, with the center door bracketed by columns and shuttered windows. The second-floor features three windows matching those below. Exterior cladding is brick, and the main house has a side gabled roof clad in composition shingle. At the rear, a sunroom is present and in the original drawings, though the sunroom’s windows appear different and may have been replaced. The Graves House was designated historic by the City of Austin in 2004. 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. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards Alterations are proposed to the second floor of the garage wing’s front elevation, which are based off original design drawings from the architect. Aside from this major alteration, work proposed in this section is largely repair or replacement of non-original material with a more appropriate appearance. 3. Roofs Current roof is composition shingle, and the application proposes replacement in-kind due to deterioration. Replacement of roof eaves, where needed, are in-kind and will not change their appearance. 4. Exterior walls and trim Brick is proposed to be patched and repointed, in keeping with Standards …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 2, 2204 SB-2024-086522 / SB-2024-086516 CONGRESS AVENUE HISTORIC DISTRICT 312 ½ CONGRESS AVENUE 14.0 – 15.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Install several types of signage on a contributing building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Install signage on the Congress Avenue-facing elevation of a two-story commercial building that contributes to the district. The signage types and locations are the following: 1) Cabinet sign above the ground floor and between medallions, installed into masonry. Non-illuminated. 2) Blade sign at ground level, installed at transom height and projecting out towards Congress Avenue. Non-illuminated. 3) Vinyl signage attached to all second-floor windows, fit around muntins. 4) Vinyl signage attached to storefront and transom window on one bay of ground-floor. ARCHITECTURE The Downtown Austin historic resource survey calls the building at 310-312 Congress Avenue an Italianate commercial structure and part of a two-part commercial block. The design is simple and straightforward, with façade split into three bays. The middle bay serves as a recessed entry with large, glazed storefront windows on either side. Above, the second- floor features three large 4/4 windows that appear to be operable and likely either original or based heavily on an original design. The cornice line features modest dentils and brick patterns that very slightly project from the rest of the façade below. Between the two floors, metal medallions in the shape of lion’s heads are present that may have previously anchored an awning or sidewalk covering. DESIGN STANDARDS The City of Austin Signage Guidelines are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 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 Commission and HPO allow one sign per building unless there are multiple tenants. The two-story design of this building implies a two tenant, upstairs/downstairs type of use, so more than one sign may be approvable. However, all signage proposed is for one tenant. While two of the signage types are vinyl and attached to the windows, the cabinet and blade signs are proposed to …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS OCTOBER 2, 2024 HR-2024-097641 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 1703 NEWNING AVENUE 16.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a residence on a currently empty lot. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposal is construction of a new, single-family residence on a previously subdivided lot. RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS The lots now listed as 1701 and 1703 Newning Avenue were subdivided in 2010 for the purpose of constructing two single- family houses. Previously, a single residence was constructed in the mid-1940s, and demolished in 2006. Since that time, the land has remained undeveloped, with remnants of the original slab foundation present. There are records of renters living at this address as early as 1916, but no record could be found about buildings or structures on the site. 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. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The street setback is generally consistent with the neighborhood, and although several structures on the street in the immediate vicinity are non-contributing newer builds, the proposed structure is in line with them. 2. Orientation Proposed construction is oriented towards the street, similar to contributing buildings in the neighborhood. The front door faces the street, though it is inset from the front carport, which dominates the right half of the front elevation. 3. Scale, massing, and height Many of the structures on the block, which are recent construction or are non-contributing, are two stories in height, like the proposed design. However, this height is not consistent with the larger neighborhood, which is largely single-story. Contributing houses are generally simple and rectangular in plan, often with rear additions for additional square footage. Due to the elevation changes in the neighborhood, second floors aren’t uncommon, but they are commonly found in the form of basements or lower floors at the back of a property. The design of the proposed project is not consistent with this, with the two-story section projecting towards the frontmost part of the house. An attached carport is attached to the side, and a rooftop shade assembly increases the maximum project height further. 4. Proportions District character is horizontal in detail, with lapped siding and wide front elevations with modestly pitched gable- or hipped- roofs are typical. The …

Learn why this is External Email - Exercise Caution Hello Historic Landmark Commissioners, My husband and I, Marc St Raymond, wanted to write to you in support of the project that has been proposed on the vacant lot at 1703 Newning Avenue. Several years ago we bought a home on Academy Drive, one of the cross street’s with Newning. While we appreciate many of the historic properties within Travis Heights, we were attracted to the Travis neighborhood in part due to its mix of residential styles and evident investment that people are putting into this community. We believe that the mix of old homes and new, with varying styles of each, adds to the visual character of the neighborhood and serves it better than lots sitting empty or older homes being neglected. With respect to the new homes, we much prefer the unique styles this builder has taken with each of their projects we have seen within the neighborhood. We have no doubt that the quality of their projects contributes positively to the value of surrounding homes. Although not an historic design, we believe this project would be a welcome addition to the area and see no reason why it should see any delay in being built, especially given it sits on an empty lot between other new homes. We’d much rather have their beautiful new design as a neighborhood than an empty construction site. Thank you for your consideration, please let us know if you have any questions!
