Building in New Smyrna Beach
Small mid-century beach houses on valuable lots get demolished and rebuilt at several times the size, and multi-unit and condominium buildings continue to go up along the shoreline. Both put substantial new construction into an environment that is hard on buildings, on lots where setbacks, elevation and coastal construction requirements shape what is possible.
The existing condominium stock is a market of its own. Buildings put up decades ago need work on roofs, envelopes, balconies and structural elements, and that work sits at the intersection of an association, its unit owners and a contractor, with genuine disagreement about who is responsible for what.
