Guthrie, Logan County
The Guthrie Historic District covers more than 2,000 late nineteenth and early twentieth century buildings and became a National Historic Landmark in 1999. Exterior work in and around it can run into historic district review, which is a scheduling question as much as a design one.
What Guthrie is actually like
Founded in a single afternoon when around 10,000 people claimed lots at the noon cannon on 22 April 1889. Territorial capital, then the first state capital until the seat moved to Oklahoma City in 1910. Losing the capital is precisely why the Victorian building stock survived.

Who issues a building permit in Guthrie?
City of Guthrie Planning Department on (405) 282-1110. Confirm the current requirements with them before you plan around a schedule, because counter hours and submission methods differ across this metro more than people expect.
Do you build in Guthrie?
Yes. Guthrie is about 16 miles north of Edmond, and distance affects the labour component of a quote rather than whether we will come. Tell us the address and what you are thinking about and we will give you a number.
What does an outdoor kitchen cost in Guthrie?
The planning ranges on this site apply across the OKC metro: an island structure at about $380 to $850 per linear foot before appliances, and a complete 8-foot cook station typically $8,500 to $11,500. Access and distance move the labour line, which is one of the things a site visit settles.
Does the permit rule differ from Edmond?
Guthrie runs its own building department, so its thresholds and its process are its own. The Edmond exemptions described on the permits page are Edmond's, and they do not automatically apply here.
