Building Permit Drawings in Whitby
Two historic downtowns, decades of family subdivisions and Brooklin's fast growth — permit drawings for every era of Whitby housing.
Two Downtowns and Everything Built Between Them
Whitby is unusual in Durham: it has two historic centres — downtown Whitby and the village core of Brooklin — with generations of family subdivisions filling the space between and beyond. Near the cores, the work is careful renovation of genuinely older homes. Across the 1980s-to-2000s stock, it's the region's staples: basement suites and additions. And in Brooklin's new phases, it's finishing and converting basements the builder left bare. Three eras, three kinds of drawings — all prepared for the Town of Whitby's review.
The century homes around both downtowns need documentation before design: measured existing drawings, honest structural assessment, then renovation or addition sets that respect the original building.
