Join Preserve the ‘Burg and Backstreets Capital for a tour and talk at the historic Cade Allen home on Mirror Lake that is currently undergoing a complete restoration.

Most recently used as an office space, the restoration team is returning the structure’s intended residential purpose while highlighting its historical and architectural significance. Cade Allen, for whom the Allendale neighborhood is named, built the family home at Mirror Lake in 1937. 

This project showcases the possibilities of new development working hand in hand with historic preservation. Backstreets Capital’s founder and president Will Conroy stated, “Our aim is to maintain and enhance the craftsmanship of the original interiors and exteriors while incorporating the modern amenities that today’s luxury homeowners expect. This home will be truly one-of-a-kind, offering its future owner a unique chance to own a piece of St. Pete history.”

The community conversation will be led by PTB Executive Director Manny Leto and include insights from Will Conroy (Backstreets Capital Founder and president),  local architect Elizabeth Hallock (EDAD Studio), Cassie Gardner (CEO, ALL Trades Historical Restoration), and leading general contractor Mike Fox (Fox Building Company).

Light refreshments provided and a donation bar is available courtesy of Backstreets Capital
