The city issued permits this week for renovations to the Wells Fargo Center lobby and the building’s first-floor Atrium Cafe & Grill as part of a $12.5 million project to update the 46-year-old tower.
Dav-Lin Interior Contractors Inc. is the contractor for the $1.935 million project that comprises $1.74 million for the lobby and $194,013 for the cafe. The city issued permits for the cafe May 17 and the lobby May 18.
Larry Chapman, managing director of landlord Miami-based Banyan Street Capital, said May 18 the timing for the work depends on when the contractor can assemble the materials on the site.
He said that with worldwide logistics issues affecting delivery of building materials, he expects construction might start in several weeks but no timeline has been established.
