Chapter 33, Section 33-222 of the Code of Ordinances, allows for City Council to designate a Landmark or Protected Landmark upon application by property owner.
The application for Protected Landmark designation of "The Zischang-Alvarado House" at 2011 Johnson Street was initiated by the owners David R. & Maria Alvarado.
A public hearing was held on October 21, 2021 by the Houston Archaeological and Historical Commission and there were no objections to the designation. The Houston Archaeological and Historical Commission determined that the application satisfied applicable criteria of the ordinance and unanimously recommended approval of the Protected Landmark designation.
A public hearing date on the designation request was held on Wednesday, April 20, 2022, 9:00 a.m., in the City Hall Council Chambers. Notice of the public hearing date was published in a local newspaper of general circulation.
The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council approve the designation of 2011 Johnson Street as a Protected Landmark.
