On June 3, 2021, the Appellate Division of the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit denied the City of Miami’s motion for a rehearing, leaving in place its ruling overturning the City of Miami Mayor’s veto of the County’s final historic preservation Certificate of Appropriateness for the Coconut Grove Playhouse project.
