In plain language — from agenda source text
This is a historic landmark designation for the James Harvey and Pearl Caldwell House at 400 West 37th Street, just north of campus in the Waller Creek watershed. The owner is asking to add an "H" historic overlay to the property's existing family residence and neighborhood conservation zoning, which brings demolition and exterior alteration review through the Historic Landmark Commission. City staff, the Historic Landmark Commission, and the Planning Commission all recommend granting the change. A public hearing is part of the item.
