13 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 6, 2024 HR-2024-001478 OLD WEST AUSTIN 1709 WETHERSFIELD ROAD Remove rear porch and deck and extend existing side gable to construct a new two-story addition. PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS 1) Demolish existing rear porch and partial addition. 2) Extend roofline of original building to construct a two-story addition. The proposed addition has horizontal fiber cement siding to match the existing siding, painted wood windows to match existing double-hung 6:6 windows, and a composition shingle roof to match the existing roof. 3) Remove and rebuild existing chimney. One-story Colonial Revival house with symmetrical plan, full-width porch, side-gabled roof, and 6:6 wood windows. The house at 1709 Wethersfield Road was constructed in 1936. It was primarily a rental house with short-term occupants for much of the early 20th century, though Alma Street Pitts and her husband, Norman, purchased the property in the 1950s. The Pitt family owned and operated the Street Furniture Company. 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: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project alters the existing roofline. 3. Roofs See 1. The proposed project extends the existing side-gabled roofline upward to accommodate the two-story addition. 7. Chimneys The proposed project removes and rebuilds the existing chimney. Residential additions 1. Location The proposed addition is located to the rear of the house, extending the existing ridgeline. 2. Scale, massing, and height The proposed addition is much larger in scale than the existing original house or addition, and the roofline modification may increase its visual weight. It does not appear to be stepped in from the original portion of the house. 3. Design and style The proposed addition’s design and style appear to meet the standards. 4. Roofs See 2. 5. Exterior walls The proposed exterior wall materials are compatible. 13 – 2 6. Windows, screens, and doors The proposed new fenestration appears appropriate. Summary The project meets some of the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Old West Austin National Register Historic District. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain high to moderate integrity. 3) Properties …

14 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 6, 2024 HR-2024-017536 SIXTH STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 600 EAST SIXTH STREET PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Rehabilitate building; add metal awnings; and add, replace, and repair windows. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS South Elevation: (6th Street) Add a new metal awning. Maintain the corner entry at 6th and Red River and reintroduce glazing on either side of the entry door. Replace the non-original storefront and clerestory windows. Repair and replace the second-level windows as needed. West Elevation: (Red River Street) Repaint and repair the stucco. The proposed awning wraps the corner to capture the corner entry, reusing existing eyebolts as connection points. Rework the secondary façade by adding new storefront openings along the first floor and adding new windows on the second level. Two-part commercial block comprising three original units. The building is clad in masonry at the main elevation, which appears to have been damaged during stucco removal; the secondary elevation still retains its stucco cladding. Fenestration includes replacement storefronts at the first floor, replacement windows at the second floor beneath paired masonry half- arches, and wood windows of varying dimensions at the secondary elevation. 600-604 East 6th Street first appears on the 1900 Sanborn map as a replacement for a smaller brick building with a single tenant space. It first served as the home of Caldwell-Murchison-Lee, a mercantile and grocery firm. By 1912, the Caldwell Brothers had taken over the grocery business at this location, and the Murchison-Lee mercantile had moved to East 5th Street. After a fire decimated the Muchison-Lee building in 1917, the Caldwells allowed the displaced Trade Union— second-floor tenants—to gather in their space to plan rebuilding. Tenants included a grocer, dry goods, and furniture store until the 1930s, when the Monterey Café, various hardware stores, a billiards club, and the Austin Exterminating Company moved in. By the 1940s, 600 and 602 were occupied by the Austin Auto Supply Company, with the Austin Barber College next door at 604. The Austin Auto Supply Company occupied all three units during the 1950s. DESIGN STANDARDS The design standards established by Ordinance No. 20230720-160 (July 2023) and based on the Citywide Historic Design Standards for properties in the 500 and 600 blocks of East Sixth Street apply. The proposed project was evaluated based on the following applicable standards: Rehabilitate and adaptively reuse contributing buildings, including at least the …

15 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 6, 2024 HR-2024-017546 SIXTH STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 709 EAST SIXTH STREET PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Rehabilitate building, add metal awnings, replace storefront, and repoint brick. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS North Elevation: Add a new metal awning to this building per 1970s photo. Repair and repoint the existing brick wall as needed and maintain the existing lighting on the storefront. Replace the existing storefront. One-story masonry commercial building with transom windows above awning, simple detailing at cornice, and a stepped walkway to a basement level at Waller Creek. The building at 709 East Sixth Street, addressed throughout the years as 705-709 East Sixth Street, was built around 1906. It first served as the grocery store of Abraham Tannous and his family, lauded as “the best-known Syrian” in Austin in his 1923 obituary. Tannous shared the space with a jeweler, a confectioner, and various private rentals at the rear of the shops. After his retirement, the building housed Mamie and George Hodges’ fruit stand and soda fountain, Charles Gregory’s jewelry store, and a variety of smaller groceries. By the late 1930s, Abraham Nassour and Namie Jacob had taken up the grocery businesses in the building, though by the mid-forties, Nassour transitioned his business to Abe’s Place, a package store. Nassour had previously run a saloon at 721 East Sixth Street alongside his brother, also a grocer. The brothers, born in Beirut, were also part of the larger community of Syrian and Lebanese merchants who helped to establish 6th Street as a bustling business district in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

16 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS MARCH 6, 2024 HR-2024-017548 SIXTH STREET NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 713 EAST SIXTH STREET PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Rehabilitate the building, repaint and repair gates, replace the storefront, and repoint brick. Repair and repoint the existing brick wall as needed and repair the existing entry stair. The proposed design includes replacing the existing storefront to fit within the existing masonry openings and repainting the existing gates on the front façade. No work is proposed for the back façade. Arched façade of a one-story masonry commercial building with a non-historic storefront and basement level beyond. The building at 713 East Sixth Street, known as 711 and 717 East Sixth Street, was built in 1894 as a grain and feed store. It was then used as a bakery by Mathias Grein before he moved to 722 East Sixth Street. From 1912 to 1937, Henry William Schlieker sold furniture from the building, sharing tenant space with watchmaker G. L. San Miguel. From 1941 to 1952, the building housed the Hong Kong Café, which changed hands several times before the building became vacant in 1955. The 1962 Sanborn map shows a vacant lot where the building appears to have stood; thus, the removal of the building behind the façade appears to have taken place between 1960 and 1962. 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. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Repair and alterations 1. General standards The proposed project does not remove any historic material. 4. Exterior walls and trim The proposal includes the repair of historic-age brick. 11. Commercial storefronts The proposed storefront is appropriate in scale and design for the district. Summary The project meets the applicable standards. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property is listed as contributing to the Sixth Street National Register district. The 2022 Sixth Street Snapshot resurvey recommends the property as contributing to the Sixth Street National Register Historic District. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain low integrity. Only the façade remains. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria …
