Plans to convert Miami’s historic Inspiration Addition School into new housing for workers, first presented in 2019, moved ahead again last month, with Town Council approval of a resolution adding the project to the Colonias Rehabilitation Program.
“Our goal is to take the empty Inspiration building and, between rehabbing it and new construction, create 40 housing units for working families,” said Miami Junior/Senior High School Principal Glen Lineberry. Miami Unified School District owns the three-story Inspiration School building, which was built in 1916.
