Kudos to Douglas Jemal s successful Richardson Hotel project, though recognition of the previous owners and their contributions is warranted. The Hotel Henry was acclaimed internationally, a must-visit in Buffalo.
One of Buffalo's most iconic structures is now the focus of a renewed redevelopment effort. Plans continue to revive the Richardson Olmsted Complex at Elmwood and Forest in Buffalo.
But, due to the pandemic, this never really played out. The Hotel Henry had an agreement with the Hilton with them ending business operations here at the Richardson Olmsted Campus that agreement does not translate to us as the Richardson nor does it translate to a future operator, Mortenson said.
As for all the money the state invested here, 2 On Your Side s Jeff Preval asked, Does any of that need to be paid back? No we ve been working with the tax credit investor and my understanding is that no that was an investment made to restore and reuse a historic landmark and that was accomplished, Mortenson said.
