A Gainesville real estate and insurance firm got the city planning board’s blessing Tuesday night to convert a duplex near its main office off historic Green Street into additional office space. The Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board recommended approval of W.L. Norton Agency’s request to rezone the nearly half-acre site on Boulevard from primarily residential to residential-office. The OK comes with several conditions, including that the property has no more than 13 parking spaces.
