The general commercial services district (CS) is intended predominately for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature having operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments. The purpose of the conditional overlay (CO) combining district is to modify use and site development regulations to address the specific circumstances presented by a site. Use and site development regulations imposed by a CO combining …

02 NPA-2024-0019.01 - Red River; District 91 of 3 02 NPA-2024-0019.01 - Red River; District 92 of 3 Hi Maureen and Marcelle, I heard from another party that this case was placed on the agenda for the July 8th planning commission, but I did not receive any notice of this. My contact information is correctly recorded for the Hancock Neighborhood Association in the city's community registry, and the property concerned falls within our association boundaries. I've also been told by people who did receive the notice that the phone number for the applicant on that notice was not that of the applicant but instead that of an unrelated medical office. If the applicant's contact information was indeed incorrect, would it be possible to postpone this case to the July 22 planning commission meeting so it can be re- noticed correctly to give everyone affected an opportunity to contact the applicant if they want to? Natalie Deller from council member Qadri's office has been informed of this potential notice issue and may be contacting you about it also. She is CC'ed on this message. Thanks for letting me know what's possible.

03 C14-2024-0121 - Red River; District 91 of 4 “…does not promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. This area of Red River is low-slung, primarily single family or townhome-type density with some limited sites zoned for and being used as neighborhood commercial uses. It is not a transition area of sites developed for dense and intense multifamily uses also situated in tall (greater than 40 feet) buildings.” The same remains true today with the amended application and proposed CO allowing a building as tall as 50 feet. Such a tall building is incompatible with our neighborhood. (3) Although the requested zoning classification allows for a commercial-mixed use building, the applicant has stated on several occasions that their intention is to limit the project to all-residential units. This limitation, combined with the proposed CO that would limit construction to 16 units, means that the property would be exempt from otherwise applicable side compatibility buffers and setback requirements. This last aspect of the application is what makes it so destructive to the neighborhood. As noted above, a 50-foot building would be problematic in any event due to its disproportionate size in relation to the surrounding mostly single-story bungalows. This problem would be greatly compounded by the absence of any side compatibility buffers or setbacks, which would create an overwhelming building façade right on the property line of the adjacent SF-3 lots that have only a 5-foot setback. This tall structure, even if limited to 40 feet, would loom over the neighbor's homes with an oppressive and devastating effect. The redevelopment of this site should not be allowed to have such a destructive impact on other people's lives. Such a tall building should be subject to side compatibility buffers and setback requirements regardless of whether it is all residential or mixed use. (4) Finally, GR-MU zoning would allow for many uses of the property that would be inappropriate for our neighborhood. Yet the applicant has included in the proposed CO only a small number that would be prohibited. Many of the otherwise allowable uses should be prohibited because they would bring an influx of vehicular traffic (as opposed to neighborhood pedestrian traffic), and a consequent demand for parking. Red River is narrow on this block, with just one lane in each direction and no on-street parking. East 44th Street is even narrower and with limited on-street parking that is often used by …

From the outset, OWANA has been focused on ensuring the scale and design of this important site are compatible with the surrounding historic neighborhood while contributing positively to the urban streetscape and pedestrian experience. We appreciate Endeavor’s responsiveness to neighborhood concerns, particularly regarding building height, sidewalk width, and site access. These agreements are memorialized in a restrictive covenant between OWANA and Endeavor. Height and Massing Endeavor’s original proposal included a 143-foot glass tower. After 24 months of working sessions and feedback from residents and OWANA, the developer has significantly reduced and redistributed building height. The revised plan caps building heights at 112 feet along N. Lamar, with a thoughtful step-down to 62 feet along Baylor Street, offering an appropriate transition to the adjacent residential areas. Notably, the restrictive covenant outlines more nuanced height caps for sensitive portions of the site—ensuring building massing responds to both context and neighborhood priorities. See drawings below. Enhanced Pedestrian Realm OWANA also prioritized the pedestrian environment. Endeavor has now committed to generous sidewalk and planting zone widths along all three major frontages: • 18’ total along N. Lamar (11’ clear sidewalk + 7’ planting zone), • 7’ sidewalk + 7’ planting zone + 5’ bike lane along W. 6th Street, and • 12’ along Baylor Street, with a prohibition on vehicle drop-off areas to protect residential character. These changes will transform this highly visible corner into a more walkable and welcoming environment that complements the fabric of Old West Austin. Parking and Design Commitments Further commitments made by the developer include: • No surface or on-street parking on Baylor Street, and a minimum of 95% of parking provided below grade, minimizing visual and physical disruption to the streetscape; • Burying overhead utility lines along …

While OWANA is typically cautious about supporting LI-PDA zoning—particularly when paired with a CS base—we believe this project represents a unique opportunity and LI zoning already exists just across West 5th Street, directly south of the site. The current proposal reflects an extraordinary level of collaboration between OWANA, Manifold Real Estate, and the Griffith family. Together, we’ve developed a Restrictive Covenant that memorializes extensive community protections and shared goals, balancing smart urban development with respect for the neighborhood’s historic character. A Context-Sensitive, Forward-Looking Project The site occupies a prominent location on the east side of Walsh Street, between W. 6th and W. 5th Streets. Early versions of the project envisioned a single 90-foot structure. Through multiple design iterations and extensive feedback, all parties reached a consensus on a tiered approach: starting at 60 feet along W. 6th Street and stepping back to 90 feet, then 120 feet toward W. 5th Street. This strategy ensures compatibility with the Harthan and Castle Hill Historic Districts to the north and complements the scale and momentum of the Sixth & Blanco development across the street. OWANA was particularly impressed by the conceptual design, which embraces the urban fabric of our historic neighborhood while introducing thoughtfully scaled, pedestrian-friendly architecture. We view this project as the best and highest use of the site—a well-integrated complement to the mixed-use corridor emerging along West 6th. Key Community Benefits The Restrictive Covenant incorporates provisions that reflect the intent of DB90 and exceed its baseline requirements. Highlights include: • On-site affordable housing: 10% of units at 50% MFI or 12% at 60% MFI, with third-party audits and compliance oversight, and a 40-year minimum affordability term. • 75% active ground floor uses along West 6th and Walsh Streets, helping to foster a vibrant, walkable district. • 18-foot-wide sidewalk zones, providing generous pedestrian space and enhanced landscaping. • Height transitions and building …
