Historic Landmark Sub-district requests HL22-03 and HL22-04 were submitted by Ronny
Park and Bob Green with Rylor Group, LLC for properties located at 211 and 215 East
Wall Street. The applicants propose to expand an existing single-family detached
building and construct a detached garage located at 211 East Wall Street. At 215 East
Wall Street they propose to demolish an existing metal Butler building with metal storage
building and replace it with a new single-family detached residence and detached
garage. The applicants are asking to postpone consideration of the request to the
October 18 meeting so that their rezoning request to a residential zoning district can be
heard concurrently with the Historic Landmark Sub-district requests.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Historic Preservation Commission approve the proposed Historic
Landmark Subdistrict overlay to the Grapevine Historic Preservation Ordinance 91-73
(Appendix G — Grapevine Code of Ordinances), as amended for following property
addressed as:
211 East Wall Street, legally described as LEONARD, ARCHIBALD F SURVEY
Abstract 946, Tract 40A ABST 946 TRS 40A, City of Grapevine.
BACKGROUND:
On June 22, 2022, Ronny Park of The Rylor Group, LLC, submitted an application for
Historic Landmark Overlay #HL22-03 for property owned by Rylor Group and GR8 Green
Properties, LLC located at 211 East Wall Street, City of Grapevine. The property contains a
2,404 square foot minimal traditional style house built in 1950 by Eula and Tommy Thomas
as their family home. The property was once a part of a much larger property owned by
James Joseph Thweatt in the Archibald Leonard Survey.
The main body of the house has a hip roof with a deep roof overhang, providing shade for
the window opening. There is a connecting wing to a one -car garage to the west. On the east
side of the house a master bedroom was added in 1963 expanding the width of the house.
The exterior of the house has a brick wainscoting of red veneer brick approximately four feet
high, running the entire perimeter of the house. Above the wainscoting is wood siding and
wood trim. The windows are aluminum. A large projecting porch welcomes visitors to a
spacious interior containing three bedrooms, two baths, living room, dining room, eat -in style
kitchen and a large family room connects to a large covered porch facing the rear of the
property. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing addition and construct a new
addition to rear of the house and construct a new two -car detached garage.
Staff recommends approval of the Historic Overlay #HL22-03 to record the history of the
property and to allow the Historic Preservation Commission to have input in the future
development of the property. A set of the proposed Design Guidelines for the property are
attached.

husband, H. E. “Tommy” Thomas. The 211 East Wall Street property was their homeplace; next door
at 215 East Wall Street was their family business site, Appliance Service Company.

SITE
Retain the historic relationships between buildings, landscaping features and open space. Avoid
rearranging the site by moving or removing buildings and site features, such as walks, drives and
fences, that help define the residence’s historic value.
SETBACKS
Building setbacks should be consistent with adjacent buildings or with the style of the building.
Setbacks are an important ingredient in creating an attractive streetscape. Buildings should be
set back to a line that is consistent with their neighbors and land use. For example, a residential
setback should retain the setback of adjacent and nearby structures, with landscaping along the
street right-of-way.
Residential buildings with a commercial use in residential areas should be set back in a manner
consistent with setbacks of neighboring or similar residential structures.
Maintain building orientation pattern, with the front facade facing the street. Maintain spacing
patterns between buildings.
DRIVEWAYS, PARKING LOTS AND VACANT SITES
Driveways should be located perpendicular to the street; no circular drives shall be allowed (unless
proven with historic documentation) in front or corner side yard, so that the character of the
landscaped yard can be reinforced.
New parking lots for commercial uses should not be located adjacent to sidewalks in the district.
Off-street parking lots should not be allowed to interrupt the continuity of landscaped front or corner
side yards. This is important to both the preservation of historic character, and to the strengthening of
the residential district.
Screen existing parking lots from streets and pedestrian areas in the Historic District. Existing parking
lots located adjacent to streets and sidewalks may be screened to the height of car hoods. This will
provide a certain level of continuity of the building façade line; it will screen unsightly views; and it will
provide a level of security by allowing views to and from the sidewalk.
FENCES
Historically, fences around historic houses defined yards and the boundary around property and
gardens. Wood picket fences, wood rail fences and barbed wire or decorative wire fences were the
common fence types in Grapevine. Traditionally, picket fences surrounded the front of the house
while rail and wire fences surrounded the agricultural portions of the property. Maintain historic
fences.
New fences. Simple wood picket fences, wood and wire and wrought iron fences are appropriate.
Avoid chain-link fences, privacy fences and concrete block fences for the street sides of property.
Wood privacy fences may be allowed when installed in the rear yard and behind the front façade of a
property. Utilitarian/privacy fences should not be installed in front of a historic building or beyond the
line of the front façade of a historic building.

Replacing fences. If replacement is required due to deterioration, remove only those portions of
historic fences that are damaged beyond repair and replace in-kind, matching the original in material,
design and placement. If replacement is necessary for non-historic fences, or new fences are
proposed, locate and design the fence in such a way that will compliment the historic boundary of the
property without concealing the historic character of the property.
SERVICE AND MECHANICAL AREAS
Service and mechanical areas and equipment should be screened from the street and other
pedestrian areas.
All garbage and equipment storage areas should be screened from the street.
Mechanical equipment, including satellite dishes, shall not be located in front or corner side yards or
should be set back from the edges of roofs, and screened so that they are not visible to pedestrians
and do not detract from the historic character of buildings.
BUILDING FABRIC
PRESERVATION
Preserve, stabilize, and restore original building form, ornament and materials.
Any missing or severely deteriorated elements may be replaced with replicas of the original. Ensure
that roof, window, porch and cornice treatments are preserved, or when preservation is not possible
duplicate the original building element.
When rehabilitating, remove non-historic alterations.
Often, "modern" renovations conceal the original facade details. If not, the original style may be
recreated through the use of historic photographs.
Where replication of original elements is not possible, a new design consistent with the original style
of the building may be used.
Reconstruction of building elements should reflect the size, scale, material and level of detail of
the original design.
Preserve older renovations that have achieved historic significance. Older structures or additions
may have, at some time, been renovated with such care and skill that the renovation itself is
worthy of preservation. Usually, such renovations may date from before 1940.
EXTERIOR FINISHES
Original wood finishes should be maintained and painted or, when necessary, replaced in kind.
Modern synthetic siding materials such as vinyl or metal bear little resemblance to historic siding
materials. The application of such modern synthetic materials often involves the removal of original
decorative elements such as cornice, corner boards, brackets, window and door trim, etc. New
synthetic siding shall not be installed; removal of existing such materials is not required, but strongly
encouraged, to restore historic patina, finish and appearance.
Original asbestos siding should be maintained and painted, or when necessary, replaced with
synthetic siding to match the existing asbestos siding. The removal of asbestos siding over existing
Page 6
wood siding is not required, but strongly encouraged, to restore historic patina, finish and appearance.
Original masonry surfaces should be maintained and not be painted, unless severe deterioration of
the brick or stone can be shown to require painting. If the color or texture of replacement brick or
stone cannot be matched with existing, painting may be an appropriate treatment.
Paint colors should be complimentary to each other and the overall character of the house. When
possible, research the original paint color and finishes of the building's historic period; the right colors
respect the historic building.
The Historic Preservation Commission shall adopt, as necessary, a paint palette(s) appropriate to
the district’s character, which may be proposed and approved through the Minor Exterior
Alteration application process. Any colors proposed outside the adopted palette may be reviewed
by the Commission in the regular Certificate of Appropriateness process.
WINDOWS
Original window framing and lites (panes of glass) configurations should be preserved and
maintained or replaced in kind.
When replacement is necessary, do so within existing historic opening. Replacement of non-original
windows should consider the use of historically appropriate wood windows. Use same sash size to
avoid filling in or enlarging the original opening. Clear or very slightly tinted window glass may be
used. No reflective or heavily tinted glass shall be used.
Should the owner wish to install security bars, they should be installed on the interior of windows
and doors.
Storm windows. The use of interior storm windows is encouraged. Storm windows are available
which can be installed on the interior of windows. This helps to preserve the exterior historic
character of the building.
Should storm windows need to be installed on the exterior of the historic windows, storm windows
constructed of wood and configured to match the historic sashes (i.e. one over one sashes) are
recommended.
If metal storm windows are installed, paint to blend with surrounding elements.
EMBELLISHMENTS
AWNINGS-CANOPIES
New awnings and canopies should not be installed above windows or doors.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Lighting is an important element in residential areas. Fixtures should be consistent with the
historic character of the house.
Page 7
Appropriate incandescent light fixtures to the style of the district should be used.
Avoid exposed lighting of any kind unless part of a historic fixture.
NEW BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
INFILL
The Secretary of the Interior's guidelines for new buildings in historic districts encourage similarity
of form and materials, but not actual replication. New construction proposals and the
rehabilitation of non-historic buildings will be reviewed based on these Criteria. Judgement will be
based on the compatibility of the design within the context of the property's adjacent and nearby
historic buildings.
The design of new buildings should have key elements of the building’s historic period of significance
including massing, scale, fenestration and materials.
Infill buildings should not be absolute reproductions, and appear as clearly contemporary. Only
when a previously demolished historic Grapevine building can be accurately replicated may a
reproduction be considered.
Infill buildings between historic buildings should be similar in setback, roof form, cornice line and
materials, to one of the adjacent buildings. Relate height of new building to the heights of adjacent
structures. Avoid new buildings that tower over existing ones.
Horizontal wood siding (novelty, tongue and groove, shiplap or equivalent) and brick are appropriate
exterior building finishes for the historic house. Fake brick or stone or gravel aggregate materials
shall never be used.
ADDITIONS TO HISTORIC BUILDINGS
Additions to historic buildings should replicate the style of the main building if possible; otherwise
they should adhere to the general style with simplified details.
As a minimum, new additions should reflect the massing, roof shape, bay spacing, cornice lines
and building materials of the primary structure.
All new wood or metal materials should have a painted finish except on some 20th century buildings
where the use of unpainted aluminum or steel was part of the original design and should be
maintained.
A new addition should, if at all possible, be located at the rear of the historic building. If this is not
possible, the addition may be added to the side if it is recessed at least 18 inches from the historic
building facade or a connection is used to separate old from new.
New vertical additions should be set back from primary facades so as not to be readily apparent
from the facing street.
When reproducing elements that were originally part of a historic building they should be replicated
when evidence of the actual detail has been documented by photographs, drawings, or remaining
physical evidence. If no evidence exists, elements typical of the architectural style may be used.
Historic photographs can provide information on the original elements of the building.

Preface
215 East Wall Street – site of Appliance Service Company
The property contains a 1,450 square foot Metal Butler Building that was constructed in 1966 by H. E.
“Tommy” Thomas to house the Appliance Service Company operations, the family business. A long
metal storage building 1,530 square feet in size was added to the rear of the building for storage of
appliances undergoing repair. There is also a small 200 square foot detached storage shed near the
rear property line currently in disrepair. The applicants propose to rezone the property to residential
and replace the Metal Buildings and storage shed with a new period-style house.
Historical Significance
The property located at 215 East Wall Street was owned by Eula E. Thweatt Thomas and H. E.
“Tommy” Thomas. The 211 property was their homeplace; the 215 was their business site, Appliance
Service Company.
Retired Fire Chief and also former Parker Appliance Company salesman Bill Powers remembered
that Mr. Thomas was about the only appliance repairman in the area at that time. “What we could not
fix ourselves at Parker Appliance, we always took to Mr. Thomas and he could make the repair,” Bill
said.
The 215 East Wall property is shown on the historic tax card along with the 211 East Wall property as
belonging to James Joseph (J.J.) Thweatt and his wife Blanche Cook Thweatt and Eula E. Thweatt
Thomas, J.J.’s youngest sister. In 1963, the property was acquired by Eula E. Thweatt Thomas. Eula
was married to H. E. “Tommy” Thomas in 1946. In July 1966 the Thomas family received a loan in
the amount of $10,862.00 from the First National Bank of Grapevine, likely for the construction of the
metal building for Appliance Service Company.
Eula’s grandparents were Joseph Thomas Thweatt and Sally Elizabeth Whitley who came to the
Grape Vine Prairie in 1860 by covered wagon from Iowa. They had five children. Two of them were
Robert Whitley Thweatt and Richard Lee Thweatt. Robert Whitley Thweatt had a son, Frank Leon
Thweatt, who operated a service station on Northwest Highway behind this property location. His
wife, Bernice Lucas Thweatt, was a member of the Bay View Club. Richard Lee Thweatt had a son
and daughter, James Joseph Thweatt and Eula Elizabeth Thweatt who had the property at 211 East
Wall Street. Robert Whitley Thweatt was one of Grapevine’s Ice Men who delivered blocks of ice to
Grapevine homes from the Grapevine Ice Company. He was also a hunting companion of Gordon
and Bill Tate and other Grapevine community leaders.

SITE
Retain the historic relationships between buildings, landscaping features and open space. Avoid
rearranging the site by moving or removing buildings and site features, such as walks, drives and
fences, that help define the residence’s historic value.
SETBACKS
Building setbacks should be consistent with adjacent buildings or with the style of the building.
Setbacks are an important ingredient in creating an attractive streetscape. Buildings should be
set back to a line that is consistent with their neighbors and land use. For example, a residential
setback should retain the setback of adjacent and nearby structures, with landscaping along the
street right-of-way.
Residential buildings with a commercial use in residential areas should be set back in a manner
consistent with setbacks of neighboring or similar residential structures.
Maintain building orientation pattern, with the front facade facing the street. Maintain spacing
patterns between buildings.
DRIVEWAYS, PARKING LOTS AND VACANT SITES
Driveways should be located perpendicular to the street; no circular drives shall be allowed (unless
proven with historic documentation) in front or corner side yard, so that the character of the
landscaped yard can be reinforced.
New parking lots for commercial uses should not be located adjacent to sidewalks in the district.
Off-street parking lots should not be allowed to interrupt the continuity of landscaped front or corner
side yards. This is important to both the preservation of historic character, and to the strengthening of
the residential district.
Screen existing parking lots from streets and pedestrian areas in the Historic District. Existing parking
lots located adjacent to streets and sidewalks may be screened to the height of car hoods. This will
provide a certain level of continuity of the building façade line; it will screen unsightly views; and it will
provide a level of security by allowing views to and from the sidewalk.
FENCES
Historically, fences around historic houses defined yards and the boundary around property and
gardens. Wood picket fences, wood rail fences and barbed wire or decorative wire fences were the
common fence types in Grapevine. Traditionally, picket fences surrounded the front of the house
while rail and wire fences surrounded the agricultural portions of the property. Maintain historic
fences.
New fences. Simple wood picket fences, wood and wire and wrought iron fences are appropriate.
Avoid chain-link fences, privacy fences and concrete block fences for the street sides of property.
Wood privacy fences may be allowed when installed in the rear yard and behind the front façade of a
property. Utilitarian/privacy fences should not be installed in front of a historic building or beyond the
line of the front façade of a historic building.
Page 5
Replacing fences. If replacement is required due to deterioration, remove only those portions of
historic fences that are damaged beyond repair and replace in-kind, matching the original in material,
design and placement. If replacement is necessary for non-historic fences, or new fences are
proposed, locate and design the fence in such a way that will compliment the historic boundary of the
property without concealing the historic character of the property.
SERVICE AND MECHANICAL AREAS
Service and mechanical areas and equipment should be screened from the street and other
pedestrian areas.
All garbage and equipment storage areas should be screened from the street.
Mechanical equipment, including satellite dishes, shall not be located in front or corner side yards or
should be set back from the edges of roofs, and screened so that they are not visible to pedestrians
and do not detract from the historic character of buildings.
