A local developer invested the former Eckhardt building on Broadway into a multimillion-dollar project to bring affordable housing to the City of Buffalo.
New York State announced it would give $10,000,000 from the Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) to revitalize the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood in 2021.
The deadline for organizations to apply for New York State's $10 million prize to revitalize the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood has been extended to May 13th.
Developer Kevin Dagher, Cedarland Development Group vice president, said his company’s $9 million renovation of the Eckhardt’s building could begin in early 2022.
