IAai AA I WEDNESDAY A2311.16. 2015 MIAMI HE RAIp FROM PAGE 1A PLAYHOUSE distrust includes the Grove, said of the preser- vationists. Brian May — chair of Miami-Dade's Cultural Affairs Council, the board that oversees county cul- tural programs and facil- ities — called the approval of the demolition permit "a turning point" in its long effort to reopen the playhouse, widely consid- ered an important cultural and architectural land- mark. "The preservation com- munity has a perspective on this which is respect- ed," May said in an in- terview. "But the commu- nity at large is longing for the day this playhouse will be restored and modern- ized and opened. They've been waiting almost 20 years, and that's far too long." In a news release, the county said the issuance of the permit puts work on track (or the new theater to open in 2027. The re- lease also includes state- ments of support for the start of work from Miami - Dade Mayor Danielle Levine Cava and Miami Commissioner Damian Pardo, whose district in- cludes Coconut Grove. "Today's permit marks decisive action forward on contentious community issue and by polarized debate. While it may not be the desired outcome for some, after almost 20 years of stagnation, we are excited to witness new beginnings," Pardo said. The release said a con- tractor for the demolition, John Bell Construction, has been hired, but May and Regalado said the zing of the auditorium wont begin immediately. Fast, they said, the county has to clean out the playhouse's remaining contents, which include debris as well asfurnish- ngs, papers and other materials left behind when it was abruptly shut down in 2006 amid mounting debts. Valuable items, puch as tames, were reviously put in safe storage. Some interior architectural elements, such as ongnal colons and portions of the stage and proscenium, will be incorporated into the new theater and are also being removed. Asbestos must also be removed and the front building has to be shored up before demolition of the auditorium can be cried out, they said. May said he doesn't expect demolition to begin for several months. The playhouse had a long and storied run be- fore closing. The nonprofit volunteer board that ran it was unable to pay cascad- ing debts or maintain the building as it struggled to fill seats. Designed by the famed architectural firm of Rieh- nel and Elliott and origi- nally built as a movie theater, the playhouse hosted many legendary stars after its conversion to live theater in 1956. 11s first theatrical production was the U.S. debut of the classic absurdist play "Waiting for Galot." Many audience members famously left well before the end. The county took control of the slate -owned play- house under a complex 2014 deal that allowed Florida International Uni- versity to lease the proper- ty fora nominal sum and have use of the planned new theater for student programs. The new playhouse would be managed and programmed by GableS- Sage, an award -winning small company that now operates at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables and would be renamed Grov- eStage. Citing the old playhouse operation's financial fail- ure, the difficulty in at- tracting large audiences to live theater in Miami, the inadequacy of the bat- like auditorium for mod- ern dramatic productions, and limited available pub- lic funding, county offi- cials developed a plan that they said balances historic and architectural preser- vation with heal and artistic prudence. The county's architectu- ral and theatrical consul- tants concluded that the playhouse's front building — which at various points housed the playhouse lobby, restaurants, offices and, on the third floor, apartments for visiting artists — should be reno- vated as a stand-alone structure. Miami -based Arquitectonica, mean- while, designed a separate new slate -of -the -art thea- ter that consultants said would be financially and artistically feasible. The plan includes sever- al other significant ele- ments, including a new parking garage on the property's existing parkin lot and dining spots or shops on the ground floor. The garage would be built An architectural rendering from a modified plan prepared under the guidance of Miami- Regalado shows the restored front building of the Coconut Grove Playhouse et left with shadier plaza and exterior for the freestanding modem theater et right. 46 THE PRESERVATION COMMUNITY HAS A PERSPECTIVE ON THIS WHICH IS RESPECTED. BUT THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE IS LONGING FOR THE DAY THIS PLAYHOUSE WILL BE RESTORED AND MODERNIZED AND OPENED. THEY'VE BEEN WAITING ALMOST 20 YEARS, AND THATS FAR TOO LONG. Brian Ma), dwlr o(.lnanrl-Dade: Cukurd Afl Ns Council, the board that oversees county cultural programs and facilities and managed by the city's semi -autonomous parking authority, and revenue from the operation would help cover the cost of renovating and maintain- ing the playhouse's histor- ic front building, which could also be converted to commercial use to sub- sidize the new theater's theatrical productions. Regalado said she has also insisted on the addition of a pocket park at the rear of the property to make it welcoming to residents of west Coconut Grove, the historically Black neighborhood whose residents were once barred from attending shows at the playhouse Other design tweaks in- clude more wood on the SOUTEAST avawroeALWAret WAVY tw/IYMIry t®lY6eIPpI 612MDy PLEASE ALL TAKE WAGE reeendCa,newonewAyer, MaeSouth- wag Oveverttin WecCorrevm.y rierlerefteenlApeller AEOPw CACI,e Owe re ell.

The county plan quickly ran into concerted opposi- tion from playhouse fans and some cultural figures who called its intimate new auditorium small and edambitious and demand- instead an altemative plan calling fora full res- toration capable of hand- ling big Broadway -style shows. Theft calls for a larger auditorium didn't go anywhere after prom- ised private fundraising failed to materialize. The final design for the site still requires approval from the city's historic - preservation board, where shifting membership over the years meant that votes on elements of the county plan have been inconsis- tent — favorable some- times and at other times not. Once design approval is in place, the county n Dade Commissioner Raquel a new. woodsier. greener and must also secure building permits from the city. That means it could be as long a a year before con- struction work on the new theater starts, May said. The years of delays also mean that the new thea- ter's original budget of S23 million, a combination of bond proceeds and grants, would fall far short of today's cost, county officials concede. New estimates are being drawn up, but the county has been allocating additional funds over the years in anticipation o(a signif- icant rise n construction costs and there should be no shortfall once construc- tion Is ready go to, May said. The city parking author- ity has told the county that it will be ready to build the long -planned garage as theater construction starts, May and Regaado said.
