Ann Keyser
The Trailblazer Award

PIP winnnerWhile looking at property for redevelopment, Ann Keyser discovered a Spanish Revival two-story bungalow court, which she wanted to preserve by converting them to condominiums. At the Community Development Department she found that city rules would not allow apartment-to-condo conversions. With the help of staff and the Historic Resources Commission, Ann went through a long process to amend Coronado City codes to allow condominium conversion for buildings designated historic. She then obtained designation and approval for conversion. Ann and her partners have developed a beautiful project of tremendous historic and economic appeal. This is one of the single greatest successful applications of the City of Coronado Historic Resources Preservation program and has opened the door for more sensitive redevelopment.
