Gov. Kathy Hochul announced the start of construction for 950 Broadway LLC in east Buffalo. The $13.5 million project, by Cedarland Development LLC, will renovate and convert a 50,000-square-foot, vacant and underutilized building in east Buffalo into a mixed-use development, featuring 28 affordable housing units, a free Head Start child education program, and a proposed indoor urban farm.
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.
