HISTORIC PRESERVATION – BUILDING UNDER $5 MILLION EDIS COMPANY
The Coxe House Renovation
This renovation of this historic house
that has become an integral part of the urban fabric of Wilmington’s Market Street exhibited a wide array of creative concepts to be completed in a relatively short span of five months.
The biggest challenge for any renovation of a historic building is how to sensitively insert new heating, cooling, and life safety system into the historic fabric of the existing building. The care EDiS has taken to achieve this daunting task is evident in the clean and undamaged interior and exterior finishes
in the Coxe House, all while working under COVID construction limitations. Of special note is the brilliant idea of re-subdividing the Willingtown Square complex into
one tax parcel to allow only one main fire service tap and sprinkler manifold to eventually service all four buildings on the site at a future savings of approximately $85,000.
