Trinity School Patio Canopy in Midland, TX

Trinity School of Midland filed a TDLR registration for an exterior metal patio canopy at 3500 W. Wadley Ave in the Providence Park area. The project, listed as "Trinity School Patio Canopy," adds 1,900 square feet of covered space to the existing building. The estimated cost for this addition is $107,185, which calculates to $56 per square foot.

The construction window was scheduled to begin and conclude in August 2025, a 13-day build period. TDLR completed plan review in August 2025. However, the agency has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current physical state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The filing indicates the work is privately funded on private land for private use.

Project Scale and Cost Context

This project is distinct from the larger construction efforts recently registered in Midland County. Among 157 TDLR-registered additions to existing buildings in the county, the median estimated cost is $496,000 and the median size is 5,000 square feet. The Trinity School canopy project sits in the bottom quarter of the county cost range for this work type. Its $56 per square foot cost is below the county median of $133 per square foot. The 13-day scheduled build window is significantly shorter than the county median of 227 days for similar additions.

Trinity School of Midland is also the owner of record for another TDLR-registered project in the area: the Lower School, Chapel, & Entry Library. That separate project has an estimated cost of $34,316,000 and has also completed plan review. The patio canopy is a smaller, distinct scope of work focused specifically on adding exterior metal coverage to the existing structure.

The site is located in ZIP code 79707, an area with a population of approximately 39,881 according to U.S. Census estimates. The median household income in this ZIP code is $99,979, and the median owner-occupied home value is $382,400. Nearby businesses include H-E-B Fuel, Las Colinas Apartment Homes, and Dr Vinyl. The area is characterized by a mix of residential housing and commercial services, with housing that is mostly owner-occupied.

The registered accessibility specialist for this filing is Stephen D Macphie. The project was registered with TDLR in August 2025. Readers should note that the lack of a final inspection record means the completion status is not verified by the state, despite the scheduled completion date having passed.
