There was no litigation filed by the City of Miami regarding the Coconut Grove Playhouse by the Third Court of Appeals-extended deadline of June 6, 2022. Consequently, the Court’s ruling in favor of Miami-Dade County is the final action and provides the go ahead for work to begin on the construction phase of the Playhouse project.

The next steps include finalizing the permit with the City of Miami to begin work necessary for the existing building.

Additional news will be posted on this site when it is available.
