The Historic Preservation Board of the City of Coral Gables is reviewing an application for a Special Certificate of Appropriateness at 1137 Obispo Avenue. This property is a designated Local Historic Landmark. The proposal includes adding an addition and carport to the existing residence, along with alterations to the home and site improvements. A variance is also being sought for reduced east and west side setbacks for the new addition and carport. This item is currently under review. The project would involve site clearing and grading, followed by construction of the addition and carport, including framing, roofing, and exterior finishes. Interior work would involve plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems, as well as finishing trades. Final landscaping would complete the project. Contractors specializing in historic renovations, general contracting, site work, concrete, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, painting, and landscaping may find opportunities. Reaching out to the applicant or project team early, before final plans and permits are issued, could provide a competitive advantage.
