Renovation of Key West Historic Homes
Historic properties in Key West If you are planning on purchasing a property with historic Key West architecture, you will have to have all improvements to the property approved by the Historic Architectural Review Committee (fondly referred to as HARC).
There are a few grant programs available for Historic Restoration. With these programs help, we can better preserve and restore historic buildings today to pass onto the next generation tomorrow.
The Old Island Restoration Foundation offers grants up to $10,000 for the rehabilitation, restoration, and reconstruction of historic properties in Key West. For more information, call 305-294-9501, or go to www.oirf.org.
A second source for grants is the State of Florida, which has two programs. Historic preservation grants are available up to $50,000. Special Category Grants are available up to $350,000. For further information on these grants, go to www.dhr.dos.state.fl.us/grants or call (850) 245-6333.
