Owner’s representative and project manager in West Palm Beach

The city has many local historic districts, including El Cid, Flamingo Park, Grandview Heights, Old Northwood and Prospect Park. Exterior work on homes there generally goes through the Historic Preservation Board process. Many of these houses are 1920s Mediterranean Revival, Mission and frame vernacular homes, where windows, roofs and additions need care.

Downtown and along Flagler Drive, larger projects go through city development review, including the Downtown Action Committee in the downtown master plan area, the Planning Board and the City Commission. Recent office, residential and medical construction can make experienced contractors and long-lead materials harder to get, so procurement and contract terms matter.

Palm Beach County is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, but high-wind and wind-borne debris rules apply. Intracoastal properties bring seawall, dock and flood elevation questions, and many older homes need electrical, plumbing and structural updates once walls are opened.
