Quick answer
Mesta Park homes were built between 1906 and 1930, and the neighborhood became an Oklahoma City historic preservation district in 1994. We rewire these houses in planned phases, replace undersized panels, add grounded outlets and modern lighting, and keep any exterior change in line with the district review process. Permits go through the City of Oklahoma City.

What the housing looks like in Mesta Park
Mesta Park was built between 1906 and 1930, was listed on the National Register in 1983 and became an Oklahoma City historic preservation district in 1994. Most of its homes have passed through many owners over the past century.
Each owner tends to have fixed what was in front of them, so a typical house has a rewired kitchen, an original upstairs, an addition with its own wiring and a panel that has run out of room. A planned, phased rewire is usually the sensible way to bring it all to the same standard.

Because Mesta Park is a historic preservation district, any visible exterior change, from a new mast to a meter relocation, is planned with the Historic Preservation Commission review in mind. Inside, we work around original woodwork and plaster, use the attic and basement for new runs, and leave a panel directory that matches the house. Permits come from the City of Oklahoma City and OG&E handles meter pulls.
