The proposed project will create a restoration/rehabilitation plan for the recently relocated Stagecoach Inn, which was built ca. 1850 and is tied for oldest surviving structure in Round Rock. The Inn's new location is in a heritage - themed future public park, closer to other buildings of similar age and to the Williamson Museum on the Chisholm Trail (a living history facility). Together they present an opportunity for cultural education about Round Rock's pre - railroad founding period, and about the overall process of settlement and development. The City of Round Rock purchased the Stagecoach Inn in 2013 as part of right-of-way acquisition for a major TxDOT road project. A great deal of public interest was generated after the Historic Preservation Commission denied a demolition permit in 2016, eventually resulting in the founding of Round Rock's first preservation nonprofit, Round Rock Preservation. Since the road project would not allow the Inn to remain in place, the City contracted with architect and preservation consultant Architexas to conduct a feasibility study for relocating it. The study determined that the physical relocation was feasible, recommended a receiving site, and estimated the costs of relocation, mothballing, and later restoration. The City committed $830,000 for the relocation contract but stipulated that in return restoration would be completed with private funds. = The relocation of the Stagecoach Inn was officially completed October 2, 2018. This grant would fund the creation of a restoration/rehabilitation pian including material specifications, architectural drawings, engineering and construction documents, so that work may begin as funds become available. Having a specific restoration plan will greatly facilitate budgeting and fundraising efforts. 2. Project Need (15 Points): How did the CLG identify the need for this project? Has the need been documented? If so, how? The City agreed to relocate the Stagecoach Inn in response to public interest in saving it. The 2016 feasibility study included recommended restoration measures for the purpose of evaluating the viability of the relocation project but did not determine a specific restorationlrehabilitation program. The Council specifically conditioned that it would pay for the relocation if restoration funds were provided by the private sector. In order to prepare for the restoration (and fundraising) the project requires a plan for what that restoration will include. How was the project initiated? (City Council, the public, preservation commission, etc.) The commitment to restore the Inn came with the City's commitment to fund its relocation. Since the relocation was completed October 2, 2018, attention can now focus on how to restore the building's historic integrity and bring it into a useful condition. How does the project address a goal of the local government's preservation program or a specific preservation need? Creating a restoration/rehabilitation plan for the building defines the scope of work for reviving the Inn and is essential for budgeting, bidding, and fundraising as well as construction and engineering. Restoring this property strengthens the set of historic resources relating to Round Rock's founding period in "Old Town." 3. Project Objective (15 Points): Define the objective for the proposed project. To create a restoration/rehabilitation plan for the Stagecoach Inn, including construction and engineering documents. The restoration/rehabilitation aims to restore the exterior to its condition ca. 1900 and to make the Inn functional for educational and community purposes discussed in project summary while expressing historically appropriate building techniques. Identify the steps the applicant and/or the consultant must take to accomplish the project objective. • Continue research with previous owners and owners of similarly -constructed properties to determine the Inn's historical construction as closely as possible. • Stakeholder visioning to determine permanent use for building and establish needs of building program. • Create restoration/rehabilitation plan, including material specifications, architectural drawings, engineering and construction documents. 17 What is the estimated timeframe to accomplish each of these steps? Research and visioning to be completed by Spring 2019. Restoration/rehabilitation plans to be completed by Fall 2019. Who will be leading the project? What qualifies this person to lead such a project? Resumes must be provided. Principal Planner Joelle Jordan will lead the project. She has been the City's project manager for the Stagecoach Inn Relocation Project to date, including the relocation feasibility study, architect selection and contracting, competitive sealed proposal for the general contractor, as well as the relocation itself. She has served as the City's HPO for 15 years. 4. Significance and Impact (16 Points): Does the project involve a threatened or potentially threatened resource? The Inn would have been demolished if it hadn't been relocated. The Council specified that if the City paid for the relocation, private donations would fund the future restoration. Will the project result in a National Register nomination or Surveyllnventory? The Stagecoach Inn was an RTHL from 1963 to 1994, when the roof and windows were replaced, but it has retained its local designation. The intent of the restorationtrehabilitation plan is to restore the exterior to its original condition, and National Register is desirable, if the building is eligible. Does the project directly address a deficiency in the local preservation program? The restoration will make a particular resource more accessible to the public and strengthen the concentration of pre -railroad resources in Round Rock's Old Town area. Together with the Bathing Beach Park, the area is expected to become a feature destination. How will the project reach and inform broad sectors of the public? The Inn's new location strengthens the historic character of Chisholm Trail Road and Old Town. Its proximity to other buildings of similar age, including the Williamson Museum on the Chisholm Trail, offers significant educational programming possibilities. 5. Public Involvement and Benefit (13 Points): Will the public be involved in the proposed project? How? The stakeholder groups, including Round Rock Preservation, the Williamson Museum and the Parks Department represent a variety of public interests. Local groups have helped with non-professional tasks, such as a Boy Scout troop that moved paver bricks from the stagecoach Inn's original location to the new site and plans to set the pavers in the area around the inn when it's safe to do so. The City and Round Rock Preservation have kept their social media followers informed about progress on the relocation project; Round Rock Preservation has posted photos of the project on its Facebook page almost daily. Does the project address or benefit an underrepresented group within the community? No more than the community as a whole. How will this project enhance public and private support for local preservation? It was public advocacy that led to the Inn's relocation and to the creation of nonprofit Round Rock Preservation. The physical relocation also generated significant public interest, and it is hoped that keeping the project moving will help with fundraising for the restoration. Will this project result in educational publications or activities? The Stagecoach Inn's new location is at the heart of Round Rock's founding settlement (including the Round Rock itself, which marked a low water crossing where a Military Road crossed Brushy Creek) and presents opportunities for education regarding early Texas history and the process of settlement itself. As noted in the summary, the Williamson Museum purchased a nearby building in 2017 for use as a living history site, and it is expected that their activities will extend to the Stagecoach Inn and Brushy Creek. 3 6. Budget and Cost Effectiveness (15 Points): How necessary are CLG funds in order to accomplish the proposed project? The City Council has spent nearly a million dollars to relocate the Inn but stipulated that the restoration rely on private funds. It is necessary to determine a specific restoration/rehabilitation plan both for budgeting/fundraising purposes and to be ready to begin construction when funds become available. The grant would help stretch the funds available during the design phase so that fundraised dollars can go directly to physical work. How did the applicant develop the project's budget? (research, past experience, etc.) Architexas has provided an estimate of $25,000 for design services, for which a $15,000 grant is requested. Architexas conducted the 2016 relocation feasibility study, created foundation plans and drawings for the relocation, and served as project architect for the relocation. What is the applicant's source and commitment of matching funds? The matching funds include $5,000 from the City of Round Rock as the full amount of an annual budget item earmarked for grant -matching. Nonprofit Round Rock Preservation has pledged $5,000 of the funds it has raised to the grant match. $5,000 in in-kind contributions of staff and volunteer time are allocated for project management, stakeholder coordination, public outreach, etc. Is the proposed project the most cost-effective way of addressing those needs? Yes — each stakeholder group has contributed to the match, and the restoration plan must be completed for the project to progress. The plans require the services of a preservation consultant that can produce engineered construction drawings, which cannot be done by staff. Fundraising for the restoration is much more effective when there is a specific restoration plan in place. ATTACHMENTS: Please include all applicable attachments to the grant application.

STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE PRESERVATION PLANNING PROCESS (11 Points Total): CLG funded projects should meet at least one of the goals outlined in the THC's Statewide Preservation Plan. Please select the Statewide Preservation Plan Goals addressed by your project and explain how they are addressed. It is not necessary for your project to address all the goals listed in the Statewide Preservation Plan. 4 ❑ SURVEY AND ONLINE INVENTORY: Texans undertake a comprehensive survey to document the state's diverse historic and cultural resources resulting in a publicly accessible online inventory. ® EMPHASIZE CULTURAL LANDSCAPES: Preservation practices are enhanced by emphasizing cultural landscapes. ® IMPLEMENT POLICIES AND INCENTIVES: Cities, counties and the state implement preservation policies and incentives to effectively manage historic assets. ® LEVERAGE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TOOLS FOR PRESERVATION: Communities leverage preservation -based and traditional economic development tools to revitalize historic areas. ® LEARN AND EXPERIENCE HISTORY THROUGH PLACE: Texas residents and guests learn and experience the state's diverse history through formal education, recreation, and everyday interactions with historic places. ❑ CONNECT PRESERVATION TO RELATED FIELDS: Preservation is connected and integrated into related fields and activities, building a broader, stronger, and more diverse community. ® CULTIVATE POLITICAL COMMITMENT: Political commitment is cultivated for historic preservation. ® BUILD CAPACITY OF PRESERVATION COMMUNITY: The existing preservation community develops its capacity to function more effectively and efficiently. Please summarize how your project addresses the goals selected above: To provide historical context, the Inn's old and new locations are both within Round Rock's original settlement area known as Old Town. The settlement grew where a stagecoach route crossed Brushy Creek at a low water crossing marked by a large round rock. The town served as a rest stop for travelers and as a trading center for local farmers. After the Civil War it was part of the great Chisholm Trail cattle route. Old Town began to decline in importance when the railroad drew commercial activity away from it and declined further when the highway bypassed the old stagecoach road. The effort to save the Stagecoach Inn generated a great deal of public interest in preservation. Public interest convinced the City Council to commit almost a million dollars of economic development funding from the City's hotel/motel occupancy tax to save the Stagecoach Inn from demolition, which otherwise would have occurred to make way for a TxDOT road improvement project. Public interest also prompted the creation of Round Rock's first nonprofit preservation organization. Round Rock Preservation has greatly increased the visibility of local preservation issues, with projects including a cemetery cleanup and upcoming historic homes tour. Several heritage -themed projects were planned in the area well before the Stagecoach Inn was threatened. • Chisholm Trail Crossing Park celebrates the cattle trail phase of Old Town's history. • The Brushy Creek Regional Trail is a major recreational trail that will eventually run through several counties. In the Old Town area near the Round Rock the trail will cross from one side of the creek to the other. • Bathing Beach Park will revive an Old Town swimming area that was used from 1917 until the 1930s. The park will incorporate a log cabin ruin and a livery as well as the Stagecoach Inn. • Heritage Trail Park will be the part of Brushy Creek Trail that passes through Round Rock, with informational kiosks describing eras of Round Rock's history. The trail will begin with its founding in Old Town and will continue east through more recently developed parts of the city. • The Williamson Museum recently purchased a nearby historic property for use as a living history museum Together they present an opportunity for cultural education about Round Rock's pre -railroad founding period, and about the overall process of settlement and development in Texas. 5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS - By checking below the applicant acknowledges: ® One electronic copy of this request must be received via email by the Texas Historical Commission no later than 5 p.m on Monday, November 5, 2018 in order to be considered. ® One signed hard copy of this request must be received (hand delivered, US Mail, UPS, FedEx, etc.) by the Texas Historical Commission no later than 5 p.m. on Monday, November 5, 2018 in order to be considered. ® Consideration for funding is based on the demonstrated need, a compelling explanation of how the expanded project scope of work will benefit the CLG, and the applicant's ability to match the funds being requested. ® Commencement of grant -funded work may not begin prior to receipt of a signed grant contract between the THC and the grantee, and participation in a grant orientation meeting. ® Verified by the signature below, the chief elected official of the CLG is aware of this application and supports the proposed project. ❑ For requests involving construction projects, the property owner will be required to file a preservation easement for the property that will run with the land for a specific period of time based upon the amount of the final grant award. ® The applicant hereby acknowledges that the information provided on this application is accurate to the best of their knowledge.

(AT) was hired by the City of Round Rock to develop a feasibility study for the relocation of the Round Rock Stagecoach Inn in order to make way for the new RM 620 improvements. The purpose of this study was to evaluate two potential relocation sites for the Inn and establish a planning strategy for the preservation of the structure. The findings and recommendations can assist with decision-making, fundraising, and implementation of priorities for important work to stabilize, relocate, rehabilitate and restore this highly significant structure. The limits of the work for this study include the visible components of the interior and exterior of the structure and its immediate site. The City of Round Rock provided assistance with preparing the historical research about the structure, site and context. City staff also removed some of the Inn's later finishes to reveal historic conditions. This report includes the following: • Research and review of the history and chronology of the structure to understand the original materials, architecture, and modifications over time. • Collection of photographs showing historical elevations, subsequent alterations and existing conditions. • Preparation of base drawings from field measurements to include a site plan with two (2) relocation options, existing and historic floor and roof plans, existing and historic exterior elevations, a demolition plan, and mothballing/stabilization annotated exterior elevations. • Preparation of exterior and interior conditions analysis to include a brief description of assembly, notes on existing conditions, photographs of damaged or deteriorated materials, and recommendations for repairs or future rehabilitation. • Evaluation of two (2) relocation sites and a phasing strategy for the preparation of the existing and new site, relocation of structure, stabilization and mothballing of structure, and full rehabilitation. • Recommendations were developed for the stabilization/ salvage/removal of existing elements and for a mothballing strategy to implement while the building is inactive. • Cost estimate for proposed scope of work in four phases. The recommendations in this report are based on the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring and Reconstructing Historic Buildings. The Stagecoach Inn Relocation Feasibility Study was prepared by ARCHITEXAS under the direction of Stanley O. Graves, FAIA, Senior Principal, with the assistance of Izabella Z. Dennis, Architectural Conservator, of ARCHITEXAS. DALLAS - www.architexas.cam AUSTIN Executive Summary The Stagecoach Inn, constructed from 1848 to 1853, is one of the oldest buildings in the City of Round Rock, Texas. It was built by John J. Harris to service the stagecoach route from San Antonio to Waco and is situated on a hilltop at the intersection of Round Rock Avenue and Chisholm Trail, just south of Brushy Creek. Originally, the Inn served as a horse -changing station and rest stop, hosting the occasional overnight guest on his or her way to Austin. Over the past 160 years, it has served as a rest stop for travelers, a private residence and a restaurant. Today, the Inn is located in a commercial development known as "the Commons" and is in the path of upcoming Ranch -to -Market (RM) 620 improvements. ARCHITEXAS (AT) was hired by the City of Round Rock to conduct a study to determine the feasibility of relocating the Stagecoach Inn to a new site. The City of Round Rock has identified two possible relocation sites: 1. The Commons Site, to the south of the current location 2. The Park Site, north on Chisholm Trail in the proposed Bathing Beach Park In this report, AT evaluated the historical and physical integrity of the Inn and provided recommendations for a phasing strategy to relocate and stabilize the building. In addition, AT evaluated the two potential relocation sites with regards to impact on historical integrity, visibility and accessibility to the public, site location, programming potential, and cost. ti Site Pian %AY ♦ISN to l RM 620 Improvements Figure 1.

Relocation and Phasing Strategy The relocation of a historic building should only be considered as a last resort and is typically reserved for buildings that face demolition. In order to successfully provide recommendations that prioritize preserving the integrity of this historic resource, ARCHITEXAS has followed strategies set by the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring and Reconstructing Historic Buildings. Although the building is no longer determined eligible for state significance by the Texas Historical Commission, it is a local historic landmark, and remains an important piece of history for the local community. The Secretary of the Interior's Standards recommend identifying a clearly definable and finite "period of significance" when historic events or activities occurred. The proposed period of significance for the Stagecoach Inn has been determined to be the "pre -railroad" years of Round Rock, dating roughly from 1848, when construction on the building began, through 1876, when the railroad line came to the city. The majority of the structural systems, materials and character -defining features should be true to the period of significance so that the building is clearly identifiable as a product of the time. The proposed relocation and future rehabilitation of the Inn should comply with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. The Standards for Rehabilitation recommend that "the historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved" but recognize that some changes are required for a structure to be functional for contemporary use. Under these Standards, a complete "restoration" to the original building is not required, but the retention of original materials, craftsmanship and character is highly encouraged. Any new changes or additions should be compatible with the historic building, and repair of materials is preferable to replacement. Although additions and renovations to the Stagecoach Inn have occurred, the historic footprint and chimneys are intact. The modern additions are easily identifiable and removable. It is recommended that only the existing elements of the original structure be moved and that additions be demolished prior to this. The north, south, and west walls will require immediate stabilization after the move to seal up the building until a full exterior and interior restoration can be undertaken. The historic integrity of the Stagecoach Inn can be preserved through sensitive rehabilitation and interpretation at its new site.

Ran of Ex=sling Building, showing historic walls (Drawing by ARCHITEXAS, 2016) DALLAS www.architexas.com AUSTIN i 1 A Executive Summary, Structural relocation is a complex process and AT is recommending a four-part contd. phasing strategy for relocation and basic rehabilitation: • Phase 1 Initial Work: The historic building should be prepared and stabilized for relocation. Non -historic additions and finishes should be removed, and building materials may be selectively salvaged. • Phase 2 New Site Preparation and Relocation of the Historic Building: The new site must be prepared with a foundation and necessary site work (landscape and grading), and the building will be jacked up and moved by a qualified structural mover. • Phase 3 Stabilization of the Historic Building at the New Site and Mothballing of the Structure: Immediate stabilization of the structure will be required for the long-term preservation of historic materials. If the building is not fully rehabilitated following the move, it can be mothballed to preserve it in an inactive state for up to 10 years. • Phase 4 Basic Rehabilitation of the Structure: The basic rehabilitation of the historic building will generally include: (1) reconstruction of the historic windows, (2) replacement of doors, (3) mortar, masonry and chimney restoration, (4) interior wall construction and (5) floor installation. Depending on the determined use of the structure, MEP systems and ADA modifications may be necessary. Relocation Sites and Estimated Costs The bulk of the cost for the structural relocation of the Inn will be spent on getting the building on and off the moving vehicle, and, therefore, the distance to the Park Site only adds $20,000 to the estimate. There are significant additional costs for preparing the railroad tracks and Brushy Creek bridge (+$50,000) as well as for integrating the building into the new Bathing Beach Park site (+$30,000). The integration cost includes integration, interpretation and landscaping but not any redesign fees. The Commons Site will allow the Inn to retain the highest degree of historical integrity, due to its proximity to the original location and its comparable setting; however, the obstruction of visibility and access due to the new nearby overpass may make educational and public programming options more challenging. The estimated cost for the relocation to the Commons Site through a full rehabilitation is $614,722. The Park Site will be more visible to and easily accessible by the public. This relocation is more expensive at $758,107 due to the complexity of the travel route and the undeveloped site. The Park Site would allow the Inn to join a collection of comparable historic resources on Chisholm Trail. It would be ideal for public or educational programming options, but may be less appealing to potential commercial owners.

DALLAS www.architexas Ccirn AUSTIN Executive Summary, Relocation Project Scope c O n t' d . The first three recommended phases of the project are necessary to stabilize the building and ensure long-term preservation. Mothballing the building is highly encouraged if a full rehabilitation cannot be undertaken immediately. It will protect the building for up to 10 years and allow the building to function as an inactive historic artifact. The fourth phase, which includes a basic rehabilitation of the exterior and interior of the structure, will complete the exterior envelope and apply basic interior finishes. A programming use should be determined prior to the full rehabilitation. There is a cost savings of approximately 20% to 30% off of the total cost estimate if Phase 3 is forgone and the building is immediately rehabilitated after relocation. Additional Considerations At the completion of this report, AT identified various elements relating to the site and rehabilitation that should be considered but are outside the scope of this study. These elements are described below: There are several site components that were constructed after the proposed period of significance, including the stacked rock walls and well. The City of Round Rock shall determine if these materials should be salvaged and repurposed at a relocation site or alternate public space. The City can also determine if there are elements of the relocation project, in particular relating to salvage, that may be undertaken by volunteers. After a structural mover and mason have been selected, the City can work with the mason and mover to determine the exact costs and feasibility of salvaging masonry material. With limited historical documentation of the interior plan, the City of Round Rock or new owner can work with a preservation architect to devise a historically appropriate interior influenced by the intended use. Interpretation of the interior plan and building elements, such as the possible enclosed doorway to the south in the entryway, should be considered. Generally, the full interior rehabilitation will cost $100 to $200 per square foot and may include the construction of partition walls and doors, as well as the restoration of the fireplaces and reconstruction of mantels. Feasibility ARCHITEXAS has worked with two separate structural movers to estimate the cost and feasibility of the move. They have both confirmed that the building can be stabilized and moved in one piece to either location. The movers have also confirmed the feasibility of moving the building across the railroad tracks and bridge. AT has confirmed with Union Pacific that it is possible to move the building across the tracks. Findings and relevant logistics are included in this report for the City of Round Rock to reference.

Earnest known photograph of the Stagecoach Inn (Source: City of Round Rock) Figure 4. 1990s Restoration showing evidence of pole rafters and demolition of flooring (Source: City of Round Rock) Figure 5. 1990s Restoration showing earlier fireplace and previous casement windows (Source: City of Round Rock) DALLAS Located near the Round Rock, where Chisholm Trail crosses Round Rock Avenue, the Harris Stagecoach Inn is a remaining part of Round Rock's earliest founding. It was built before the settlement was named Round Rock, and even before Williamson County was established. John J. Harris built the Stagecoach Inn over five years, from 1848 to 1853, making it one of the three oldest surviving buildings in Round Rock. The property became a Registered Texas Historical Landmark (RTHL) in 1963, less than a year after the landmark program was established. Round Rock grew to serve travelers along one of the state's most important north -south roads, with regular stagecoach services from Brownsville to Salado and from San Antonio to Helena, Arkansas. The Inn served mainly as a horse - changing station and rest stop. Because it was close to Austin, overnight lodging was usually only necessary during bad weather or when the creek was high. Mrs. Susannah Elizabeth Tisdale Harris was proud that every room had its own feather bed, courtesy of the flock of geese the family kept. A neighbor recollected that the geese would honk loudly when a stagecoach was about a mile away, alerting the townspeople to meet the coach and see if they had received any mail. The 36' square, one-story, side -gabled masonry structure is typical of a 19th century Texas vernacular hall -and -parlor building, sometimes referred to as "pre - railroad" style. The 14" thick limestone walls were constructed from stone quarried from the hill on which the building stands and the original chisel marks are still visible on the historic stone faces. The Inn had ten six -over -six double hung wood windows and a unique, wide, recessed front entryway which provides shelter to the east -facing main double doors. The outline of a single door in the recessed entryway to the south of the main doors is visible in the masonry wall. Historic photographs show single doors at the south and west sides of the building. The broken -gabled roof has a masonry chimney at each end. There is a segmental arch above each interior fireplace. Little historical evidence is available regarding the interior of the structure and the original floor plan, but it is thought that there was an entry hall with cedar flooring. Placement of exterior doors can help to understand potential interior spaces and can assist with creating a conjectural historical plan. A historic photograph of the west elevation shows a flue at the northwest corner of the building, indicating an early kitchen in this space. Although there have been a number of additions to the Inn over the years, its owners have made a consistent effort to avoid major exterior changes to the original structure. In the 1910s or 1920s, the dry -stacked limestone walls were added to the site. In the 1930s, a west addition with modern plumbing was added and the window openings were enlarged to accommodate casement windows. The cedar flooring was covered with oak flooring in the 1950s and, in the 1960s, the Davol family added to the south end of the structure. The additions are compatible to the historic structure with slight variance in material. The south addition is connected by an arched doorway that appears to be slightly west of the original entryway. During the 1980s, the site was redeveloped into a retail and office complex known as "The Commons" and, in 1994, a new metal roof was installed and all of the windows were replaced with single lite fixed windows. Since then, small entryway additions have been added for the north and southeast entries to the building. The Inn was originally in operation for 30 years, until the International & Great Northern Railroad extended a line into Williamson County, drawing travelers and merchants to the depot and the new town around it. The Inn became a tavern, then a residence for about a century, and, lastly, a restaurant from the mid-1990s to 2012. It has remained a significant and visible symbol of Round Rock's history and, although it is no longer RTHL eligible, the building was honored with the 2013 City of Round Rock Local Legend Award and is designated as a local historic landmark.

Significant aspects of the historic building's character, most importantly the integrity of its setting and its "sense of place and time", are often lost during the relocation. The original site of the Stagecoach Inn is integral to its original function. Selection of an appropriate new site is a significant factor in the long-term success of the relocated structure. When evaluating a relocation site for the Stagecoach Inn, a number of factors should be considered. 1. Can the building logistically be moved to the new site? 2. What type of preparation is required at the new site and for the transit route? 3. Is the new site easily accessible to visitors? Will it allow for a wide range of programming options, depending on the final use? 4. Is the site securable? Will the building be subject to further deterioration or vandalism? 5. How does the new context affect the interpretation of the historical significance of the building? 6. Will the building have a similar aesthetic relationship to the site? 7. How does the new site affect the overall integrity of the historic building? The US Department of the Interior assesses integrity of a historic property based on seven aspects: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. 8. What are the relative costs for the relocation and stabilization of the building? Preservation of the structure's integrity, an understanding of its history and significance to Round Rock, and a continued interpretation of the Inn as a "rest stop" for the City should be prioritized. There are two site options for the relocation of the Stagecoach Inn (see Site Plans on page 21). Option 1: The Commons mite The proposed Commons Site is south of the Stagecoach Inn's current location and the building would continue to face Chisholm Trail. The relationship between the Inn and its location is important to understanding why the building was constructed and what its original function was. The Inn was built on the hilltop Commons site to capture the view of travelers along the Chisholm Trail and to be visible to those incomers. The site is particularly important for recapturing the sense of historic events and historic use. Furthermore, the community already has a familiarity and association with the location of the building. The route to this site has minimal obstacles and site design would be least extensive, making the relocation approximately $100,000 less than the relocation to the Park Site. The building's setting would retain a high degree of integrity due to similar topographic features and vegetation, assuming they remain consistent. There is a material connection between the limestone blocks used to construct the building and the physical Commons site, which is the hill from where the limestone was quarried. Logistically, the site is securable and has access to utilities. The buildings at the west side of the Commons are planned to remain in active use, which will reduce the potential for vandalism. An active site is beneficial in case there is an issue or damage to a building because it may be spotted and remediated more quickly. Depending on the future programming requirements, infrastructure, such as parking and rest rooms, may be available or negotiated with the existing buildings at the Commons. The complex and site already have the potential for commercial or office use. The RM 620 project involves the construction of an overpass directly to the north of the proposed Commons Relocation Site. This would block views of the Inn from the road, and it could potentially disrupt traffic flow and easy access to the DALLAS - www.architexas.com AUSTIN 18 Comparative building. Because programming and future use has not yet been determined, this Evaluation Of Sites., factor has an uncertain effect. For instance, if an office takes over the building, the road construction may have little effect; however, if the building becomes Cont'd. an educational space, it may be difficult to find and potentially would have less organic traffic. Appropriate signage and marketing, coupled with successful landscaping could limit negative effects of the nearby road. The Commons Site would allow the Stagecoach Inn to retain the highest degree of historical integrity and is the less expensive option. Visibility and access will be limited by the new road and this may make successful long-term use more challenging for public or educational programming options. Option 2: The Park Site, north of Chisholm Trail near Brushy Creek The Park Site is north of the existing site on Chisholm Trail and is within the proposed Bathing Beach Park at Brushy Creek. The Inn would be placed in a grassy open space just to the south of the existing 1870s Sansom House at 750 Chisholm Trail. The main entrance of the building would continue to face east towards Chisholm Trail. The travel route for the relocation of the Stagecoach Inn to this site has been mapped through the east side of the Commons development, over the Union Pacific Railroad tracks and north on Chisholm Trail, cross ng the Brushy Creek bridge along the way. Structural movers have confirmed that is feasible and preferable to move the building in one piece. The building would be easily accessible and visible to visitors at this location. The stretch of Chisholm Trail between Sam Bass Road to the north and Brushy Creek to the south has a concentration of six historic buildings, as well as the Round Rock. The Stagecoach Inn could strengthen the compelling visual narrative of 19th century Round Rock on this street and be integrated into the new park. Marketing the area as a historic district for the City of Round Rock could enhance civic pride, educate the public and attract visitors to the historic buildings and new Bathing Beach Park. Moving the building across the railroad tracks and over the Brushy Creek bridge adds additional costs to the Park Site relocation. The structural mover would build a bridge over the railroad tracks to protect them from the vehicle and would most likely have to reinforce the bridge to support the weight of the building. Traffic would be detoured along vehicle route and a police escort would have to be retained. There would be a larger cost to integrate the building into the Park Site than at the Commons Site and infrastructure, such as parking and rest rooms, will be required. Until the Bathing Beach Park is completed, regular inspection and maintenance, as well as heightened security surveillance, may be required to prevent vandalism and to monitor the building for issues. The interpretation of the Stagecoach Inn and its place in Round Rock's history is be more challenging at the Park Site, and the relationship between the building and the hilltop site would be lost. Furthermore, the Sansom House is thought to have been constructed as a stagecoach stop or livery. Two stagecoach stops next to each other may compromise the integrity of both and may require education and interpretation of not only the Stagecoach Inn, but of the Sansom House as well. Although more easily accessible to the general public, the Park Site may be less appealing to potential commercial owners. The Park Site is the more expensive option, but it would allow the Inn to join a collection of comparable historic resources in the City of Round Rock.

Guidelines and recommendations from the National Park Service Phasing Strategy and the US Department of the Interior Technical Preservation Services Department were referenced to create phasing strategies that ensure the preservation of the historical and structural integrity of the building. Initially, the existing historic building should be prepared and stabilized for relocation. Second, the new site will be prepared and the building relocated. Third, the building can be stabilized using a method for deactivated buildings known as "mothballing" and, lastly, as resources allow, the historic structure can undergo a preliminary rehabilitation. ESTIMATED FINAL CONSTRUCTION COST PHASE COMMONS SITE PARK SITE Phase 1: Initial Work' $ 22,368 $ 22,368 Phase 2: New Site Preparation and Relocation of $ 300,588 $ 401,503 Historic Building Phase 3: Stabilization or Historic Building at New Site and Mothballing of Structure $ 81,456 $ 81,456 Phase 4: Basic Exterior and Interior Rehabilitation of $ 210,309 $ 252,780 Structure TOTAL $ 614,722 S 758,107 " Select costs in Phase t have been identified as demolition items that will occur whether or not the building is demolished and are, therefore, not specific to this project. These costs total $19,440 and they are itemized for reference but not included in the estimated total construction. Cost estimates for a full restoration to make the building interior functional will depend on programming needs and is beyond the scope of this report. For budgetary purposes, restoration costs can be estimated at $100 to $200 per square foot. The sources for this cost estimate include structural movers consulted about the Stagecoach Inn, resources included in the "Sources" section of the Appendix, and past comparable preservation projects undertaken by ARCHITEXAS. The estimated costs for the Stagecoach Inn relocation are intended for budgetary planning.

The period of significance for the Stagecoach Inn has been determined to be the "pre -railroad" years Phasing Strategy of Round Rock, dating roughly from 1848, when construction on the building & Estimated Costs began, through 1876, when the railroad line came to the city. Based on research from available historical sources, a conjectural plan and set of elevations for the original building have been prepared (See Historic Elevations on pages 48-49 and Conjectural Historic Plans on page 46). Any additions outside of this time period and all interior fixtures or furnishings (which are nonhistoric) should be removed to lighten the load for the move. The existing roof structure, windows and doors should remain until the full rehabilitation is possible in Phase 4. Where removed additions have left gaps in exterior walls, temporary braced walls should be installed to stabilize the structure for transit. Minor patching to the roof will most likely be required after the additions are removed. The structural mover will advise on which landscape features, including trees and pathways, require removal to create a path for the truck and building. The stacked rock walls on the Stagecoach Inn site were installed during the 1930s. They are not historic to the building nor part of the proposed period of significance, but may provide useful building material at the new site or other public sites. The City of Round Rock shall determine if the stacked rock walls should be salvaged and reinstalled based on potential future programming or interpretation. The City of Round Rock can work with the masonry contractor to determine the feasibility of salvaging any nonhistoric limestone from demolished additions and the interior masonry wall at the south wing to use for the reconstruction of masonry walls in Phase 3. The City may consider inviting volunteers to assist with salvaging the stacked rock walls, salvage and/or resale of fixtures/furniture, and removal of window awnings. Interim storage for any salvaged materials shall be arranged by the City of Round Rock. Phase 1: Initial Work 1. Hire a hazardous materials abatement specialist to evaluate if hazardous materials are present and require abatement. 2. Salvage or demolish stacked rock walls, based on new site needs. 3. Demolish pathways, as needed. 4. Remove nonoriginal additions in order to restore the structure to its 19th century period of significance. See Demolition Plan in on page 37 for detailed information about additions. S. Remove necessary trees and other site elements that obstruct the relocation vehicles and building path. This will be determined by the structural mover. Depending on circumstances, tree and building addition removal may be accomplished by the contractor responsible for clearing the path for the new road construction. 6. Install temporary walls at north and west sides where additions have been removed to stabilize structure for relocation. 7. Salvage large stones from nonoriginal masonry partition wall in south room and from exterior walls of additions to reuse in reconstructed walls. 8. Salvage large paver stones from the entryway and porch. 9. Repair and stabilize the metal roof at west side where addition has been disconnected, as necessary. 10. Remove all window awnings. 11. Demolish and remove all modern light fixtures, furniture, mill work, and built-in elements. The City of Round Rock can choose to salvage and resell these items or not. 12. Evaluate and remove any unnecessary MEP systems. DALLAS www.architexas.com AUSTIN 2B PHASE 1 Potential Expenses Not Included! in Cost Estimate 1. If hazardous materials are present, additional costs for abatement will be Phasing Strategy incurred. This cost is variable and will depend on the type, complexity & Estimated Costs, and quantity of hazardous materials. 2. The City of Round Rock should determine the extent of salvageable conts d masonry with the contractor, who can advise on feasibility, exact costs, . and practicality. This will also depend on how many phases the City of Round Rock plans to undertake at once. 3. Certain items in Phase 1 will be required regardless of whether the building is demolished or relocated. For this reason, they are not project - specific and are isolated from the total estimated costs.

The new foundation should be constructed of engineered concrete footings. It is preferable to move the building in one piece to preserve Phasing Strategy the historic and material integrity. Dividing the building would involve splitting the structure across the ridge line and most likely require a new roof and repaired & Estimated Costs roof structure after relocation. The structural movers consulted have advised that it is feasible and preferable to move the 100 -ton building in one piece. The structural moving costs are similar for the Commons and Park site. The majority of the expense is for getting the building on and off of the vehicle. For the Park Site, a railroad and low water crossing bridge must be crossed via the travel route north on Chisholm Trail. The mover will work with the railroad and bridge authorities to get appropriate permission and permits, cover and protect the rail road tracks, and reinforce the bridge. All moving permits should be the responsibility of the mover and included in the cost. It is ideal to use a structural mover who includes Phase 1 and Phase 2 as a "package" along with the relocation of the structure. Phase 2: New Site Preparation and Relocation of Historic Building I . Provide clear path for moving truck to access historic building and the new site. Based on the advice of the structural mover selected and their capabilities, this may include infill to create a pathway to the structure or new site. 2. New Site Preparation a. Site work • Level the grade. • Provide access for the building to move to the site; temporary infill for the truck may be necessary. • Pour engineered concrete footing and slab to serve as the building foundation. • Depending on the use of the site after relocation, access to utilities may be necessary. b. Drainage • If the site has negative drainage, swales should be created at sides of the structure_ • Install splash blocks below downspouts on structure to move water away from the building. c. Landscaping • No trees, tree branches or shrubs should be within 10' of the building envelope. d. Electrical • Temporary power connections and security lights 3. Park Site Only: Construction of a ramp over the railroad to protect the tracks. The structural mover will provide this. 4. Park Site Onlv: Install temporary bracing underneath bridge for additional support. The structural mover will provide this. 5. Park Site Only: A police detail may be required for traffic control during transit. 6. Building relocation via truck in one piece.

A detailed procedure for mothballing Phasing Strategy based on recommendations for the preservation of historic architecture by the Department of the Interior is included in Section III. During the stabilization of & Estimated Costs the building, the existing windows and doors should remain. It is recommended that the masonry walls be reconstructed at the north, south and west elevations where additions have been removed. At this time, historic openings for windows and doors in these new walls should be constructed. The historic window openings are smaller than the existing windows. Until Phase 4, these window openings can be boarded up and temporary doors can be installed. Wh le a qualified mason is working on the walls, it is also recommended that the exterior mortar joints, many of which are incompatible in color, texture and material, be raked out and repointed. By the end of this phase, the building will be stable for up to 10 years, with monitoring and periodic maintenance, and, visually, it will be a historic artifact. Phase 3: Stabilization of Historic Building at New Site and Mothballing of Structure 1. Build/repair`fill masonry exterior walls to match historic material at the south, west and north elevations where additions have been removed or leave temporary wall in place until full restoration. New limestone blocks should have a similar color, texture and tooling as surrounding material. Create openings where windows and doors were historically located. a. Patch openings created by beams used for moving the structure and repair/extend the foundation, as needed. b. Create two (2) new door openings in the new masonry at the west and south elevations based on historical location. Secure with temporary plywood sheets until Phase 4. c. Create four (4) new window openings in masonry at south, north and west elevations based on historical location. Secure with temporary plywood sheets until Phase 4. 2. Reconstruct wood porch at east entrance. 3. Repair roof and drainage system, as necessary. 4. Mothball structure (see "Mothballing of Structure" in Section III). 5. Interpretation and Signage a. Install interpretative signage of history. b. Install interpretative signage with narrative of relocation and future rehabilitation. 6. Regular Maintenance a. Monitor roof conditions and check for leaks on the interior. b. Monitor and clean out gutters and downspouts. c. Trim vegetation. d. Implement a regular pest and moisture management strategy. Potential Expenses Not Included in Cost Estimate 1. Optional, but recommended: hire an architectural conservator to conduct mortar analysis and determine original mortar mixture and color. (approx. cost: $2,500) Potential Saving in Immediate Rehabilitation 1. The savings in going straight to a rehabilitation would be approximately 20% to 30% of the total cost. Savings come from temporary doors and window covers, miscellaneous site work, drainage system repair, temporary lighting, passive louvers and dehumidifier. There is also potential cost savings in labor for only one phase, rather than two.

For this study, the scope of the rehabilitation extends to the exterior structure and basic interior finishes. A strategy for a full interior restoration or rehabilitation should be determined after use and interpretation of the building are decided. Amenities, such as a restroom, may be necessary depending on the intended use, but we recommend this amenity be accommodated in a nearby structure in order to preserve the integrity of the historic building. The building would not, historically, have had indoor rest rooms Because historic interior photographs and documentation are not available for the building, interior wall materials and placement, as well as the roof construction, may depend on the use of the interior space. Phase 4: Rehabilitation of Exterior and Interior of Structure 1. Reconstruct and install ten (10) wood windows based on the original six - over -six wood windows. Narrow openings, as needed. 2. Replace all three (3) doors (one double door and two single doors) with new historically appropriate doors. 3. Replace roofing with cedar shingle roofing. 4. Rake out 50% interior mortar joints, as needed. Repoint with type N mortar. 5. Restore chimneys and add mantels. 6. Install interior cedar flooring. 7. Construct interior wall partitions based on programming needs and historic research. 8. Evaluate the need for new MEP systems. 9. Depending on function and accessibility requirements, ADA modifications to the structure may be necessary. 10. Due to the building's limited size, it is not recommended to add rest rooms inside the structure.

Mortar analysis may be undertaken before repointing. Roof: The standing seam galvanized roof was added in 1994 to replace a wood shingle roof. The metal roof is in good condition and can be retained during the move and mothballing stages, but should be replaced with a historically appropriate cedar shingle roofing once feasible. Drainage System: There is a system of painted metal gutters and downspouts throughout the building. The existing drainage system on the historic building can be retained during the move and mothballing stages. It should be checked and cleaned as part of regular maintenance at the new location. It should eventually be replaced with a historically accurate half round gutter system. Windows: The fixed wood windows were added in 1994. These windows can be retained during the move and mothballing stages but should be removed during the full rehabilitation and replaced with historically appropriate six -over -six wood windows (See Historic Plans and Elevations on pages 46-49). Doors: The existing historic structure has one original entrance, at the east elevation. These nonhistoric doors should be replaced during the full rehabilitation but can remain during the relocation and mothballing stage. They should be adequately secured. Historic photographs show doors at the west and south elevations. These elevations have been altered due to the 20th century additions and will require stabilization after relocation. An additional exterior door should be installed at the west elevation post relocation in the historic location. Currently, there are no interior doors in the historic building and none of the existing doors appear to be historic. Additions: All additions to the 19th century original building should be demolished. Exterior walls should be evaluated for salvaged historical material. Stone Walkways and Porches: The stone steps, platforms and inset pavers do not appear to be original. Depending on the landscape of the new site and ease of removal, they could be salvaged and reused. The large stones at the east entrance are particularly attractive. Stacked Rock Walls: The extensive dry stacked limestone landscape walls were installed between 1907 and 1932 and are not historic to the proposed period of significance. Their salvage needs to be determined by the City of Round Rock based on future programming for the structure and potential for reuse. MEP Systems: MEP systems should be evaluated by a MEP consultant to see if any can be salvaged and relocated with the historic building, but most likely they will need to be replaced. A/C ducts should be removed from the historic structure. Partitions and Interior Finishes: The modern interior partitions and finishes should be demolished or removed prior to relocation. Furniture and Fixtures: The City of Round Rock should determine if the furniture and fixtures should be demolished, salvaged or sold. Flooring: The carpet should be removed n its entirety. The or,ginal flooring is thought to be cedar. Cedar flooring should be installed during the rehabilitation. Lighting (Exterior and Interior): There are a variety of interior and exterior modern lights in the structure. All modern lights should be removed and replaced with historically appropriate alternatives after relocation. www.architexas.com A U 5 T I N 36 • 1�1 R c 0 0 E CD v rn C o � C � � N 7 (A U 2ccW cU N Q w� o rn C.9 RS CL m o� 0 of m 3 b7 !L 37 Z a W 7 a N V W N U, N 0 01 J, Z m m N o � Z W • 1�1 R c 0 0 E CD v rn C o � C � � N 7 (A U 2ccW cU N Q w� o rn C.9 RS CL m o� 0 of m 3 b7 !L 37 Relocation Logistics Historic Building Relocation A qualified structural mover should be retained to relocate the Stagecoach Inn. To preserve the integrity of the building, it is recommended that the building be moved in one piece and structural movers have confirmed that this is the most practical choice. Structural moves are complex and once a mover is selected, they can outline the exact plan for moving the structure. The structural mover will be responsible for permits and, in the case of the Park Site move, will be responsible for logistics of crossing the railroad tracks and bridge. Structural Movers To estimate costs, AT consulted the below structural movers. They are familia with the project and are recommended for the move. Emmert International Mark Albrecht 503-655-7191 ext. 250 malbrecht@emmertinti.com H. D. Snow and Son Moving, Inc. H. D. Snow 12155 Business Hwy. 287 North Fort Worth, Texas 76179 817-439-1999 Crossing the Railroad Tracks To reach the Park Site, the Stagecoach Inn must be moved across a railroad track at Chisholm Trail by the structural movers. The track is part of the Georgetown Industrial Loop owned by the Union Pacific Railroad. The structural mover will build a temporary bridge over the tracks for the vehicle and will coordinate with the railroad on timing and insurance requirements. For safety reasons, the railroad requires a Union Pacific flagger and police escort to be on site for the move. The move has been preliminarily approved by Union Pacific and there will be no costs other than safety support. 1. Ticket #2016-10-11-174 DPM should be referenced when contacting the railroad. 2. Union Pacific requires at least 72 hours notice for the move. 3. A Union Pacific flagger must be on hand for the move. The cost is approximately $2,000 and is included in the cost estimate as part of the railroad crossing to the Park Site. 4. For safety purposes, a police escort is required by the railroad for the move. 5. Union Pacific uses the DOT crossing numbers for the railroad tracks. The crossing at RM 620 is #439705H. For reference, the crossing to the south at Hester's Crossing is #439698A.

Park (see Appendix) outlines steps to protect inactive historic Structure After buildings for up to ten years with limited maintenance and monitoring. Vacant Relocation historic buildings cannot remain indefinitely, as materials inherently have a finite lifespan, but mothballing is a good option until it can be rehabilitated. Modern materials can be temporarily used for the process. 1. Document the structure at its new site with notes and photographs keyed to a site plan. • Document any revealed construction or material conditions exposed during relocation, such as original flooring or wall construction. • Inspect the interior flooring and foundation for evidence of historic interior wall partitions. • Reevaluate restoration plans based on any newly discovered evidence. • Due to the potential longevity of mothballing, maintain easily accessible and complete records of all data for future consultants, contractors or City officials. 2. Prepare a condition assessment of the building after relocation to ensure no damage has occurred and to document conditions prior to mothballing. 3. Stabilize the structure of the building. Refer to Stabilization Drawings on pages 41 through 44 for detailed information. 4. Eliminate and control pests including insects, birds and rodents. • The foundation and flooring should be inspected for any insect damage. • Close chimney flues with sheet metal caps to prevent pest intrusion. 5. Protect the exterior from moisture penetration. • Inspect entire structure, including roof and floor joists for any leaks or tears. • Ensure that site is draining appropriately away from the building envelope. 8. Secure the building and its component features to reduce vandalism or break-ins. • Mothballed buildings are often boarded up with exterior grade plywood boards to prevent broken window glass or forced entry. • The east double doors should be reinforced with strong locks. Per the Stabilization Drawings, a single door should be added to the west elevation and secured with strong locks. • The existing windows can remain until rehabilitation Begins and should be boarded up with exterior grade plywood. • Motion activated security lights can help to secure the area in the evenings. 7. Provide adequate ventilation to the interior. • The interior will require ventilation to prevent mold, rot and insect infestation due to rising humidity levels. • Passive, louvered panels should be installed per the Stabilization Drawings. 8. Secure or modify utilities and mechanical systems. • An evaluation of required utilities and systems is needed. • Generally, utilities should remain off if the building is unoccupied. 9. Develop and implement maintenance and monitoring plan for protection. • Regular monitoring for moisture intrusion, including leaks, biological growth on masonry or ponding near the structure. • Regular monitoring for evidence of pests should be implemented. • Monitoring of interior humidity levels. • Regular trimming of landscape.

Site Work • Plan and execute the successful integration of the Inn into its new site. • Landscape the immediate building site, taking care to keep vegetation at least 12" from the building envelope. • Create interpretation tools for the Inn, such as informative signage. • " For the Park Site, the Bathing Beach Park architect/planner should be consulted for the site work phase. 2. Masonry • Many of the interior mortar joints have been patched with mismatched or inappropriate mortar. Approximately 50% of the mortar joints require a mason to rake out and repoint with a type N mortar. Mortar analysis by an experienced architectural conservator to identify the historic mortar mix is highly recommended in Phase 3. • Narrow window and door openings to historic dimensions and patch with masonry, as appropriate. 3. Carpentry • Install historically appropriate interior flooring. Historical documentation references cedar floors. • Basic framed interior walls and doors can be installed based on functional needs. Two conjectural historical plans have been included on page 46. They are based on historical plans of comparable buildings. 4. Thermal and Moisture Protection • Replace the metal roofing with historically appropriate cedar shingle roofing. • Repair existing gutters and downspouts. 5. floors and Windows • Install historically appropriate windows. Based on historic photographs and existing wall openings, the dimensions are estimated to be 2'-2" wide by 3'-4" high with a 6" frame around the exterior. • Install historically appropriate doors. Based on historic photographs and existing wall openings, the west and south doors are estimated to be 3' wide by 7' high and the east double doors are estimated to be 5' wide by 7' high. 6. Finishes • Finish/stain the flooring. • Paint the partition walls, window trim/sashes and doors. 7. Additional Items • Implement an integrated pest control system. • Update mechanical and electrical systems, as necessary.

Many of of Structure these will depend on the long-term owner and determined use of the structure. 1. Replace gutters with historically appropriate half -round gutters only on the west elevation. 2. Interpret the evidence of an opening to the south of the main entrance doors. The use of the structure may dictate the interpretation of this element. 3. Interpret the interior plan. There are comparable buildings in Round Rack with masonry interior walls; however, there is no evidence on the interior masonry walls at the Stagecoach Inn or of detached walls. During relocation, evidence of wail footings under the floor slab may be revealed. Because the plan is entirely conjectural, programming may dictate the final interior configuration and wall type. 4. Restore the fireplaces and reconstruct historically appropriate wood mantels. 5. The original roof structure was most likely a pole and rafter system typical of 19th century construction in Texas. There is no evidence of the original structure and a reconstruction will depend on the building use. 6. Reconstruct flue at northwest corner of roof.

The inspection was done Analysis to note deficiencies, assess the condition of deterioration to damaged exterior envelope building elements and to provide preservation recommendations and a budget estimate to assist the City of Round Rock with initiating and completing a relocation and rehabilitation of the historic structure. The conditions of the building envelope were assessed from the exterior by visually reviewing the exterior envelope, windows, roof, and site. The exterior materials were visually assessed from the ground, with the use of binoculars where necessary for the upper portions of the building. The conditions of the building interior, including the finishes, floor, and fixtures, were assessed visually. The inspection, evaluation and recommendations were conducted based on a format that was established by the National Park Service and has been utilized as a standard system of inspecting and evaluating the condition of National Historic Landmark Buildings. Definition,, The findings of the investigation are organized into three general categories, Description/Construction, Existing Condition, and Recommendations. The following definitions were used to classify each building condition according to one of three categories. The element is structurally sound and performing its intended purpose, and there are few cosmetic imperfections. Repair is not needed or only minor routine maintenance is required. EAR The element shows early signs of wear, failure or deterioration but remains generally structurally sound and is performing its intended purpose. A failure of a sub -component may have occurred. Replacement of up to 25 percent of the element or replacement of a subcomponent may be required. The element is no longer performing its intended purpose, is missing, or has deterioration or damage affecting more than 25 percent of the element. The element may show signs of imminent failure. Major repair or replacement is required. DALLAS www.architexas.com AUSTIN 52 Existing Conditions Analysis & Recommendations DALLAS www.architexas.com AUSTIN Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ELEMENT TYPE ANALYSIS 1. SITE Description/Construction: The Stagecoach Inn is located at the northeast corner of the Commons development at the corner of Round Rock Avenue and Chisholm Trail Road. The site is generally sloping towards the northeast. Mature deciduous trees and ground cover are located around the perimeter of the building_ There is a semi -circle dry stacked limestone wall to the south of the building, and paths constructed of inset rough cut pavers lead to all entrances Based on historic photog.-aphs, the landscaping does not appear to be historic to the period of significance. Most of the landscape walls date from 1907 to 1932. In front of the main east doors, there is a 14'- 6 1/2" wide by 8' - 1/2" deep stone platform, Stacked rock wall at south side Existing Condition: Vegetation and mature trees at east side Large stones at entryway of east side Historic photograph showing stone porch at east side The dry stacked wall. pavers and front entry are in good condition. Recommendations: Many of the trees will need to be removed for access to prepare the building for relocation and for the road improvements. Depending on the new location, the dry stacked wall could be salvaged and reassembled at the discretion of the City of Round Rock. The pavers are set in a bed of concrete and will not be practical to relocate. The large stones in front of the east door should be salvaged and moved with the building. Historic photographs show a stone platform in front of this entry and the size of the stones and the large size of the stones indicate that they may be historic. DALLAS www.arch1texas.com AUSTIN 54 II. BUILDING EXTERIOR 1. Exterior Wall Assembly Change in stone from historic building (left) to new addition (right) at north side 2. Roof Construction & Drainage Painted gutters and downspouts at northeast corner DALLAS Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ANALYSIS Description/Construction: The exterior wall of the Stagecoach Inn is constructed of a roughly coursed V-2" thick wall of limestone set in a light -beige mortar. The limestone was quarried from the hill on which the building stands and many of the blocks retain original tooling marks. There are limestone fireplaces centered at the gabled ends of the historic structure constructed with the same rough coursing of stone. The limestone blocks used for the additions are a different size, in general thinner, than the historic building. Existing Condition: The original limestone walls appear to be in good condition. The mortar varies in color and is generally spread over the face of the limestone blocks at the mortar joints. Recommendations: The limestone on the additions should be surveyed and evaluated to determine if any was repurposed from demolished historical exterior walls. Anynewlimestone from the additions should be demolished. It is recommended that a qualified architectural conservator conduct mortar analysis to determine the color and composition of the original mortar for repointing. Generally, a type N mortar is appropriate for exterior limestone. Description/Construction: Each section of the structure (the historic building, additions and south wing) have a side -gabled, standing seam metal roof of varied heights. The historic structure has a broken gable with extending shed roof towards the west. Historic photographs show a wood shingled roof and it appears that the roof was wood until 1994 when the metal roof was installed. It was postulated in 1994 that the slope of the shed roof was too shallow for a wood shingle roof. There are painted gutters and downspouts along the perimeter of the building. Existing Condition: The roof and drainage system are currently in good condition. Recommendations: Ultimately, it is recommended that the roof over the historic structure be replaced with a wood shingle roof. The metal roof on the additions should be demolished with the additions_ The main metal roof can remain on the historic building during relocation. www.architexas.com AUSTIN 55 ELEMENT TYPE 3. Exterior Door Assembly Original door opening with modern doors at east elevation; Dotted red outline of possible historic door at left 4. Exterior Window Assembly New double casement windows Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ANALYSIS Description/Construction: The main entrance is through a set of double doors at the east side of the building. There are single doors at the north and south additions, and two single doors at the west side of the building. The east door is the only original opening and none of the doors appears to be historic. Existing Condition: The existing doors are on good condition. Historic photographs show single doors at the west and south sides of the building. These doors were removed when additions were added. There is an outline in the masonry of a single door opening to the south of the main doors. Recommendations: It is recommended that all of the door openings be restored when the building is stabilized after relocation. The new doors should be historically appropriate. In historic photographs, it appears that there may have been screen doors; although the historic doors are difficult to clearly see in photographs. The outlined door opening south of the entrywaymay be interpreted as historic and reconstructed. Description/Construction: The Stagecoach Inn has fixed wood windows that were installed in 1994. There are three (3) nine -lite windows and six (6) double nine -lite windows. The windows on the north and east side of the building have red awnings over them. At the west side of the building, there is a set of seven (7) fixed wood ribbon windows. Existing Condition: The windows are in good condition. Although some of the new window openings are in the same place as the original, none of the windows or the size of the window openings are original. There is evidence of an infilled window opening on the interior of the historic south wall. Recommendations: From historic photographs, it appears that originally there were ten (10) wood six -over -six windows approximately 2'-4" wide by X-4"high (see Historic Floor Plans on page 46). It is recommended that the historic windows be reconstructed for the building during the full rehabilitation. Initially after the relocation, original window openings should be reinstated when walls are reconstructed. Temporary exterior grade plywood can cover the openings until resources are available for new windows. The existing windows can remain until the full rehabilitation.

Additions Description/Construction: South additions North and west additions Additions have been added to the north, south and west sides of the building. The historic west exterior wall has been replaced with what appears to be a partition wall, and two window openings on the historic south exterior wall were enclosed. There are small entry additions to the north and south ends of the building. The additions have limestone walls with distinctly different coursing from the historic structure. At the north end of the building, there is a distinct line between the historic roughly coursed limestone and uncut limestone on the addition exterior wall. Existing Condition: The additions are in good condition. Recommendations: The additions are not original and should be demolished. The interior west wall and the partition wall in the south room do not appear to contain original masonry, but the existing masonry can be selectively salvaged and repurposed for the reconstruction. The west interior wall is gone and can be stabilized with a steel wide flange beam and temporary wall bracing. DALLAS www.architexas.com AUSTIN 57 ELEMENT TYPE III. BUILDING INTERIOR 1. Interior Walls, Ceiling & Finishes Exposed steel I-beam, looking southwest Exposed roof construction at southeast corner of main room 1990s Restoration showing roof construction (Source: City of Round Rock) DALLAS Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ANALYSIS Description/Construction: The majority of the interior walls are exposed limestone and the partition walls are painted gyp board. The vaulted ceilings and duct work are also clad in painted gyp board. The broken gable of the roof structure is supported at the west side of the room with a steel I-beam and at the east side of the room with a wooden box beam resting on the two extruding masonry walls flanking the main doors. Existing Condition: The interior walls and finishes are worn but are in overall good condition. Upon selective removal of the gyp board, the exposed roof structure appears modern and no historical material was visible; however, the roof pitch does appear to be consistent with the historic roof. Recommendations: The modern roof construction can be maintained during the move and after relocation. The building most likely originally had a pole and rafter roof construction. Historical documentation mentions beams made of hand-hewn oak, The historic roof construction is beyond the scope of this report and its reconstruction is depending on future programming needs and interpretation philosophies, as they are determined. i 1990s Restoration showing roof construction (Source: City of Round Rock) www.architexas.com AUSTIN 58 ELEMENT TYPE 2. Flooring V Interior carpet at south elevation =44 .1e 1990s Restoration showing removal of flooring (Source: City of Round Rock) Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ANALYSIS Description/Construction: The interior is currently covered in a dark carpet. The original floors were cedar, hauled from Brenham in an ox -cart. This flooring was either replaced or covered with oak flooring in the 1950s. Since then, a concrete floor has replaced and reportedly the wood flooring and carpet installed on top of it. Existing Condition: The carpet is in poor condition. Photographs from the 1990s renovation appear to show that the wood flooring was completely removed. Recommendations: Any existing original or early wood flooring will not be salvageable underneath the concrete slab due to cost and likelihood of the wood having been removed prior to the concrete. A photograph from 1994 shows a masonry floor that has been demolished prior to pouring concrete. Most likely the wood flooring was removed at this point. During rehabilitation, cedar flooring should be installed throughout the interior. www.arrhitexas.com AUSTIN 59 ELEMENT TYPE 3. Fireplaces North fireplace with painted mantel and chipped masonry r WO a i i. South fireplace with red lines indicating the outline of an early mantel 4. Mill Work, Furniture & Fixtures Built-in bar at south side of historic building Existing Conditions Analysis and Recommendations ANALYSIS Description/Construction: There are fireplaces at the north and south ends of the historic structure. Modern painted wood mantels are affixed above them. Existing Condition: The fireplaces are in fair condition. There is a large chipped stone at the north mantel. There appear to be indications in the mortar joints of where an earlier mantel may have been. Recommendations: Afterrelocation, the modem mantels should be removed and eventually replaced with a historically appropriate piece. The fireplaces require cleaning. Metal chimney caps should be placed and maintained on the top of the chimney stacks to avoid water and pest intrusion. Description/Construction: There is a variety of furniture and fixtures within the building from its time as a restaurant in the 2000s. Existing Condition: The furniture and fixtures are in fair condition. Recommendations: All furniture, fixtures and modern mill work should be removed from the structure. 1)ALLAS www.arch1texas.com AUSTIN 143 Existing Plans & Elevations DALLAS www.architexaS.c0m AUSTIN m i a ral al cd r� P-4 M NO SLOPE 3d07S DN.

It is generally not preferable to disassemble Option: Disassembly historic structures during relocation because it can cause damage to the original materials and to the building's historic integrity. The total cost estimate for disassembling the Stagecoach Inn, relocating the materials and reconstructing the building at a new site is $147,000 for relocation to the Commons Site and $152,000 for relocation to the Park Site. This cost includes the following: 1. Demolition of original existing historical limestone walls and two chimneys. 2. Each stone will be hand cleaned of old mortar, labeled and moved on a pallet. 3. The historic structure will be rebuilt at the location. Reconstruction will include building the west elevation wall and the two fireplaces. This cost does not include engineering, permits, concrete foundation work, roofing, temporary water, rest rooms, electricity or dumpsters.
