Two storefronts immediately next to the historic Williamsville Water Mill have been leased by restaurant operators.

Michael Shatzel, owner of three restaurants in Buffalo, leased a 1,482-square-foot space at 78 Spring St., which he plans to convert into a new craft beer bar, said Lida Eberz, a broker at CB Richard Ellis who handled the lease with partner Steve Blake for both Shatzel and the building owner.

The veteran business owner’s plans are still unfolding, so it’s not yet clear if the bar will also offer food, she said. Shatzel already owns Cole’s and Blue Monk restaurants in the Elmwood Village and Liberty Hound on the waterfront.

“The concept will work well with the ongoing development in that corridor and in the Village of Williamsville,” Eberz said. “It’s a vibrant, walkable area.”

Shatzel and business partner Dino DeBell also bought five buildings on Allen Street in Buffalo earlier this year, including the former Quaker Bonnet Eatery at 175 Allen, as well as a former Quaker meeting house, an adjacent wooden house, a carriage house and a storage garage. The two plan to convert the former restaurant into a burger place and will fix up the meeting house later.

Eberz and Blake also helped Bryan and Tara Bryndle, owners of Tabree Restaurant in Snyder, to lease the former Coffee Culture space at 5590 Main St. The couple plans to open another restaurant, “probably an oyster bar,” Eberz said.

The coffee shop closed Wednesday, but the 1,900-square-foot space received “numerous inquiries” in a matter of days, Blake said. “This will be an exciting addition to the village,” he said.

Benderson Development Co. has confirmed its long-rumored plans to put up a new CVS Pharmacy store on the site of the former Paula’s Donuts on Kenmore Avenue, replacing a dated store down the street.

Benderson, which acquired the property at 392 Kenmore from Valu Home Centers owner Michael A. Ervolina Jr. for $1.35 million earlier this year, has already demolished the former plaza that housed Paula’s, which moved to a larger location at 2319 Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda.

Benderson Vice President Eric Recoon said plans call for a new pharmacy of about 15,000 square feet in size on the site near Englewood Avenue. That would replace an older store at 465 Kenmore.

A pair of businessmen have restored one of the brownstone mansions in the “Midway” block of Delaware Avenue in Buffalo, returning it to use after years of decay, and positioning it to house a law or professional services firm.

The four-story Colonial Revival home-turned-office building at 491 Delaware Ave., near Virginia Street, has been completely refinished, repaired and upgraded during the past year, as owners Walter McFarlane and Lenny Alba renovated both inside and outside the stone-and-brick structure.

Built in 1898 along with other neighboring Midway homes on the site of the former Cornell Lead Works, the house was originally owned by a civil engineer named Charles Miller Morse and his family. It was later owned by a doctor and then by a photographer, but had long since deteriorated. It went through five owners in the past 20 years, and one foreclosure.

The original hardwood floors were ruined, the central staircase had been cut in half, wood molding was missing in places, the carpeting was old and worn, fluorescent lighting was everywhere, the windows were badly in need of repair, and it hadn’t been maintained or updated for modern use. “It simply showed more than a century of use,” McFarlane said.

McFarlane and Alba purchased the property in April 2013 through Castle Jane LLC, paying $302,500, after McFarlane stumbled on photos of it online while he was house-hunting. “I went to see it just out of curiosity as it seemed to have a lot of character even though it was in very tough shape,” said McFarlane. He and Alba “fell in love with its charm and wanted to be a part of its restoration.”

Twelve months later, the century-old building now has new heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, new humidifier and sprinkler systems, a re-coated roof with new flashing, and a new security system. It also has four new bathrooms.

The owners installed a custom-designed stained-glass central skylight above the central staircase, incorporating the Morse family crest into the center of the glass as a tribute to the home’s history.

They also installed new hardwood floors, carpeting and ceramic tile, as well as new recessed ceiling lighting and wall sconces.

Outside the 6,104-square-foot structure, the facade and chimney were repointed.

Now they want to sell it and start all over with another one. “It’s been a ton of fun and we hope it’s new owner will enjoy occupying it as much as we enjoyed restoring it,” said McFarlane, calling it satisfying “to leave something better than we found it.”

The renovation project was the first of its kind for McFarlane, who retired as chief financial officer of a food-manufacturing company after 12 years in that role, and for Alba, who owns Alba Coatings. But McFarlane said it won’t be the last.

“It is great to see all the investment that is happening downtown right now both in large projects and small ones like ours,” he said. “We enjoyed it so I can imagine we will keep going with it. We hope to do one building at a time, choosing a property with some architectural significance.”

The effort by the owner of Key Center at Fountain Plaza to block Delaware North Companies’ move to a new building on Delaware Avenue fell short Thursday after a state court ruled in favor of the Erie County Industrial Development Agency.

State Supreme Court Justice John A. Michalek, in a ruling he read from the bench, rejected the entire lawsuit by Key Success LLC, which had sought an injunction to overturn the $8.42 million in tax breaks that the ECIDA granted to Uniland Development Co. in December.

Uniland has said the tax breaks are an essential piece of the $93 million project to build a 12-story office and hotel tower at 250 Delaware Ave., at the corner of Chippewa Street. Uniland has already demolished the century-old Delaware Court Building at that site, and is preparing the site for the new tower.

The ruling by Michalek, at the end of an hour-long hearing, followed oral arguments by the two sides, ends the legal challenge by New York City-based Key Success. It also represents a vindication of the actions by ECIDA, which had been under intense scrutiny for several months in the fall, while the incentive applications by Uniland and Delaware North were under consideration.

“The agency acted within its legal authority, and the judge agreed,” said Richard T. Sullivan, an attorney at Harris Beach, who argued the case for ECIDA.

Key Success managing member and owner Erwin Zafir said he hadn’t seen the written ruling yet, “so we’ll reserve our comments on anything until we see the full ruling.” He said he has not decided whether to appeal.

Zafir has owned the Key Center since 2000, when he built the South Tower specifically to house Delaware North. He later bought the adjacent Bank of America Building in 2007, and has invested millions of dollars in both buildings for improvements and renovations. The buildings are managed by Ciminelli Real Estate Corp.

“We were disappointed in the judge’s decision, and it’s a matter that we’re going to take up in detail with our client to determine what, if any, action we may take in regard to an appeal of the decision,” said Thomas J. Casey, a Williamsville attorney who was part of Zafir’s legal team.

Delaware North plans to move its corporate headquarters and 350 jobs to the new 472,320-square-foot building from Key Center, where it has been housed since 2000. The hospitality giant will occupy about 109,000 square feet at 250 Delaware, roughly the same as what it now holds a few blocks away, and will create 65 new jobs.

The new building will also feature a 119-room hotel that Delaware North will manage, in part as a training facility, and a four-level, 380-space parking ramp for employees and hotel guests.

But the departure of the company from Key Center means that complex’s South Tower will be 80 percent vacant, and the overall facility will be half-empty. That poses a threat to its viability, Key Success has said, although documents have shown it was already trying to re-lease the space last summer.

Key Success had sought an order “vacating and annulling” the ECIDA’s Dec. 16 vote to approve the property, mortgage and sales tax breaks. The investor had asserted that the ECIDA had acted illegally and in violation of its purpose and policies, but Michalek didn’t buy the argument.

“It was evident that the ECIDA staff and board acted within the accordance of the law and our policy, and took all the right steps in performing due diligence and made all the right decisions,” said ECIDA President and CEO Steven Weathers, adding that the agency had been “very confident in how this would turn out.”

“This was probably one of the most diligent projects that’s ever been reviewed by the staff and the board, and discussed in public,” he said.

The downtown building that was formerly home to Roxy’s, a well-known gay and lesbian bar, has been acquired by a Lewiston money manager and real estate investor, who wants to shift the property’s focus toward the nearby Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus.

Russ Conrad, founder and managing director of Princeton Equity Partners LLP, bought the property at 884 Main St. for $490,000. The seller was an investor group called Bilkim Holdings LLC that included William E. Regan. Conrad, whose minority partner on the project is Ron J. Rubino Jr., acted through Gemini Realty LLC.

Conrad, who has been investing in Lewiston real estate for some time, now plans to convert the three-story building into a mixture of residential and commercial space that would be “geared toward the medical campus in one way, shape or form.

“It’s not going to be Roxy’s again,” he said. “I got stopped by a lot of folks that said, ‘We’d really like to see you open it again.’”

He is planning loft apartments on the top floor and medical offices on the bottom two floors, noting that the 6,824-square-foot mansion-turned-lounge and nightclub building is directly across Main Street from the medical campus itself, and just two doors down from the renovated ZeptoMetrix headquarters. It’s also down the street from several other renovation and adaptive re-use projects, including First Amherst Development Group’s Granite Works and Jim Swiezy’s Bosch Building.

“All the people I know in New York City that are very successful in real estate have done it around jobs and health care, and both are in that area,” he said. “Both are going to propel the real estate values over the next 10 years.”

Conrad said he doesn’t know how much he’ll invest in the project, but “we’re working with architects and builders and stuff right now, to figure out what we have.” He plans to market it to a potential tenant base in the area, and will probably “build to suit” to meet a tenant’s needs.

Built in 1883, the red-and-white building with a black awning is in the Allentown Historic Preservation District.

Conrad, 42, a Buffalo State College graduate, is a financial adviser whose firm specializes in alternative investments for clients. His firm has offices in Texas, California and Florida, and serves high net-worth clients with average wealth of about $20 million.

Besides his professional firm’s office at 716 Center St. in Lewiston, Conrad’s other Lewiston properties include the Village Bake Shop building at 417 Center, an old garage and service station at 800 Center, which he plans to convert to a high-end martini bar or other restaurant, and an 1840s-era home at 120 North Seventh St. that he converted to four luxury apartments.

“I’m new to Buffalo as far as real estate,” he said. “All my projects so far have been in Lewiston.…I thought Buffalo was a great opportunity, especially that block.”

Buffalo’s Rand Building and four other major office buildings in the heart of downtown are suddenly for sale, as their longtime owner seeks to retire from the real estate scene.

David Sweet, a fixture downtown since the early 1970s, is selling his commercial real estate holdings along Main Street. That includes such well-known properties as Rand at 14 Lafayette Square, the Main Seneca Building at 237 Main and the Main-Court Building at 436 Main, as well as two smaller adjacent office buildings at 241 and 251 Main, the Roblin and Stanton buildings.

Buffalo’s commercial real estate market has been heating up, driven by new development at Canalside and the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, historic renovation and adaptive reuse projects, and the state’s Buffalo Billion initiative.

But much of the new activity involves housing, retail, medical office, culture and entertainment.

By contrast, the downtown office market has been more slack, with little new growth, significant vacancies in certain areas or buildings and the looming uncertainty over the future of One Seneca Tower, the city’s tallest building.

Still, “for the right buyers, it’s probably attractive,” said Shana Stegner, a broker at CBRE in Buffalo. “Buffalo for the most part is a stable market. We don’t see the big swings and dips that other large markets do.”

It’s the first time in decades that some of the buildings have gone on the market. Sweet bought the first of them over 40 years ago.

“I discovered the other day that I was 84 years old. It came as a surprise,” Sweet said wryly. “Nobody in my family is interested in taking over this five-building group, so I’m looking into it.”

Sweet has three daughters – Kathleen, Susan and Laura – who co-own the properties with him, but they work in other fields and are not interested in managing them.

The oldest building, the Stanton, was built in 1873, while the Main Seneca Building dates to 1902 and Rand to 1929. Main Court and Roblin were built in the 1960s.

The five office buildings have 760,137 square feet of rentable space on 64 floors in total, but they are not fully occupied. The Rand Building, the flagship of the group, is about 80 percent occupied, while Main Court is “nearly that,” and the others are “a little less,” Sweet said. “We’re keeping our nose above water.”

Sweet won’t disclose the selling price, but the five buildings are assessed at $12 million in all. He confirmed that “we’ve got somebody that’s looking” at them but wouldn’t disclose the potential buyer’s identity.

Sweet’s Main Seneca Corp. and Carl and William Paladino’s Ellicott Development Co. are the two biggest owners of “Class B” office space in downtown Buffalo and often end up trading tenants back and forth. Sweet and the elder Paladino “are great friends,” said William Paladino, Ellicott’s CEO, but his firm isn’t interested in buying Sweet’s properties because it already has enough in that price range.

Nevertheless, he said, Sweet shouldn’t have a hard time finding a buyer. “He’ll get a lot of interest in them. He’s got some nice properties. I think he’ll do all right,” Paladino said. “I think there’s a lot of interest in downtown right now.”

Sweet has played a major role in solidifying downtown Buffalo, managing his buildings through a difficult era when the Main Street corridor lost some of its marquee tenants, and city landlords battled for clients with suburban office parks.

“He’s very well-respected, and he has been a long-time building owner and developer downtown,” Stegner said.

His low-key and affable style has often distinguished him in a fiercely competitive crowd of developers and landlords. Even in today’s technological time of email, social media and texting, he prefers to send handwritten notes or typed letters.

A lawyer by training who practiced general law for 20 years, he learned real estate investing from his father, who bought and sold properties and grocery stores in Western New York and Florida for many years. Among his father’s holdings were 150 acres at Main Street and Transit Road in Clarence that he acquired in pieces for about $18,000 in all.

He eventually sold it for a total of $1.7 million. It’s now Eastern Hills Mall.

Sweet got his first chance when Marine Midland Bank built its 38-story office tower – the former One HSBC Center, now One Seneca Tower – in 1973 and moved much of its operations out of 237 and 241 Main.

The bank put the mostly empty buildings up for sale for $5 million. Sweet was interested, but the price was too steep. Marine sold them three years later for $2.2 million as part of a larger deal involving a big office tower on Park Avenue in Manhattan.

The buyer was more interested in the Manhattan site, so he sold the two Buffalo buildings to investors from the Bronx for a much lower price. But the assessment and taxes on them were much higher than the investors wanted to pay, so they sold the buildings to Sweet for $500,000.

He said he and his family then “just hit it very lucky and got a number of good tenants in a hurry” over the next few years, but they were still struggling to fill the buildings.

Then Marine ran out of room in the tower and leased a whole floor in its old building at 237 Main, followed by more floors in that building and also in 241 Main. Sweet then bought the old bookstore building at 251 Main, and the bank leased the entire structure.

He continued buying and selling other buildings, eventually reaping a big short-term profit on one deal. So he looked for another building to buy so he could postpone the tax bill on his gain and found that the Rand Building was available. He bought the mortgage on it for $3 million, foreclosed on it and took possession of the building.

Finally, the Main Court building came up for sale after Delaware North Companies – which was the biggest tenant and also held the mortgage – vacated the building and also foreclosed on the loan after the landlord refused to cut a deal on the lease.

On the day of the foreclosure sale, Sweet and one of his daughters went to look at the building on a spur-of-the-moment suggestion just an hour before the auction, and “I decided to bid on it.”

He heard bidding would start at $2 million, figured it would go for less than $3 million and took out enough money from the bank to cover the 10 percent deposit.

The price ended up exceeding that, so he scrambled to get some extra cash from the bank after winning the bidding.

“We got some pretty good tenants,” he said. “We had it lucky for a while ... We’ve managed to survive.”

Homebuyers who have seen glossy shots of a house often are shocked by the warts and quirks they experience on a tour – the backyard barbed-wire fence, the labyrinthine floor plan or the den’s 10-foot-high mural of a French porcelain doll.

What if buyers could cross off more homes before committing to tours? And if sellers could have a 24/7 virtual open house without the inconvenience of a real one?

A new Seattle real estate brokerage called Surefield hopes to improve the home-shopping experience by harnessing the power of video-game engines and computer-vision technology. Its service includes an online, 3-D, photorealistic model of the home that potential buyers can move through virtually.

Think Google Street View for homes – inside and outside.

“We want to give the homebuyer the ability to inspect down to the millimeter,” said Surefield CEO David Eraker, who in 2002 co-founded the real estate website Redfin. And by helping buyers become more selective about which homes they physically tour, home sellers “don’t have to live on eggshells to keep it looking like a hotel every day,” said Surefield COO and broker Rob McGarty, who led Redfin’s real estate operations before he left in 2010.

Current online listings for homes rarely offer a virtual tour. At best, real estate sites generally have a photo slideshow or a video set to soothing music – the buyer has no control over the experience.

Surefield, which launched its service last week, hasn’t handled any sales yet. Its founders’ strategy is to attract listings from sellers who expect the detailed online tour to simplify and speed the sales process.

“If they can pull it off, it’s going to be awesome,” said Trevor Smith, who has test-driven the technology and is managing broker of Locality, a boutique real estate brokerage that focuses on northwest Seattle.

A detailed virtual tour would save everyone – sellers, prospective buyers and their agents – time, gas money and frustration, he said.

At a typical Sunday open house in popular neighborhoods, it’s not uncommon for 150 people to walk through. As soon as they walk in the front door, more than half of them know this isn’t the home for them, Smith said.

Foreign buyers may especially appreciate the ability to winnow the list of properties they’ll tour when they come prospecting.

On the seller side, Surefield’s technology may appeal most to certain profiles: Owners of luxury homes who don’t want massive traffic coming through the property; those with pets; and landlords with tenant-occupied homes. In some cases, buyers are required to make an offer before they can even tour the property, Smith said.

In deciding to launch a brokerage rather than license the technology, Surefield will be taking on more established competitors.

“The big challenge for them is they’ve got this amazing product, and they’re going to have to find a great way to monetize it,” Smith said.

Surefield says its virtual tours won’t hide a home’s flaws, though it won’t go out of its way to point them out either.

“We want it to be authentic,” McGarty said. “We’re not going to Photoshop out a broken wall.”

About a quarter of real estate agents include virtual home tours in their listings, says Ashley Hayes, managing broker at Pointe3 Real Estate in Seattle. She has a subscription to TourFactory.com, which offers agents an easy, cheap way to assemble professional photos into slideshows and syndicate them on various websites.

“It generates leads,” Hayes said. “I just haven’t found a better solution.”

Surefield’s online 3-D tours may succeed in engaging shoppers where traditional virtual tours haven’t, but if it succeeds, it will be because selling homeowners, not real estate agents, demand it.

A case in point: Professionally shot photos are the norm in today’s home listings, but it wasn’t always that way.

“Agents were very slow to adapt to that,” said Smith, who was previously a real-estate broker at Seattle are-based brokerage John L. Scott and Redfin. “Eventually sellers saw enough listings online with professional photographs that they started requesting it.”

Surefield’s technology actually uses a video-game engine similar to one used in modern games like “Halo,” where a character moves through a space in “first-person shooter mode.”

The company’s chief technology officer is Aravind Kalaiah, a San Francisco Bay Area visual-computing engineer who led Nvidia’s development of a breakthrough technology in graphic processing.

Surefield’s image-capture, process and rendering system is patent pending, Eraker said.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Less than five years after Jose and Mary Guadalupe lost their longtime family home to foreclosure, the Orange County couple were able to buy back their house.

“I didn’t want any other house,” said Jose Guadalupe, a 55-year-old truck driver formerly in Puerto Rico law enforcement. He had added a back porch, new lighting, a loft and a sprinkler system to the home they purchased in 2000. “I only wanted my house back. You don’t know how much I love this house. My children grew up here.”

The Guadalupes are among an emerging group of purchasers, called “boomerang buyers,” who are able to get back into the housing market under new, more forgiving lending guidelines.

Although the Guadalupes are unusual in buying the very home that they lost, some foreclosed owners are finding they can qualify for conventional mortgages within three years instead of the previous seven. Buyers who qualify for loans backed by the Federal Housing Administration may have to wait only one or two years.

“Foreclosures were pretty much seven years on a conventional loan, and now you can go down to three years,” said Rob Nunziata, president of Orlando-based FBC Mortgage. “Short sales used to be seven years, and now they are as short as two years with a 20 percent down payment and meeting the criteria.”

Last fall, the FHA revised its guidelines under its Back to Work program. Borrowers must show they fell behind on mortgage payments because of an “economic event,” such as a layoff, that stripped them of at least 20 percent of their household income.

In addition, they have to show they’ve re-established their credit for at least 12 months. And they have to complete HUD-approved counseling.

Though 26 percent of white borrowers were unaware of details of adjustable-rate mortgages, 59 percent of minority borrowers did not know or understand their loan terms, according to a 2006 Federal Reserve report.

McGuire Development Co., which is heading up the state’s local effort to develop a new information technology “hub” in Buffalo, said Monday that it is now reviewing several options for locations for the new economic development initiative, which will include an office for IBM Corp.

Buffalo-based McGuire had issued a request-for-proposals to local developers and property owners, on behalf of a state agency, for potential sites to house the new Information Technology Manufacturing and Innovation Hub.

The project is part of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Buffalo Billion economic development initiative for Western New York, and computer software and services giant IBM has already agreed to set up a 100,000-square-foot software and innovation facility with 500 employees, as the first tenant of the state-supported project.

The location had not yet been determined, however. The RFP “focused on locations within and around the downtown core,” said a statement from McGuire Development CEO Jim Dentinger.

The deadline was Friday, and Dentinger said the firm “received several responses… and we are working to analyze each of the responses in light of the needs” of Fort Schuyler Management Corp., an arm of the State University of New York, which will own and manage the facility.

Dentinger did not identify any of the bids, but said the firm hopes to have “more details on proposed potential locations shortly.” McGuire is the real estate division of nursing-home operator McGuire Group.

However, Samuel Savarino, CEO of Savarino Companies and a partner with Frontier Group of Companies in the planned adaptive re-use of 500 Seneca St., said the investor group had offered up a portion of that 330,000-square-foot project for the hub.

Liazon Corp., the Buffalo-based health insurance benefits exchange company that was acquired late last year, will be moving to its new offices in Buffalo next week.

The company will move in to the eighth and top floor of the Fairmount Creamery Building at 199 Scott St. on Monday, as building owner Ellicott Development Co. nears completion of its $14.67 million renovation and conversion of the long-vacant building into a mixed-use project.

Plans call for the 126,000-square-foot building just east of downtown to include 45,000 square feet of office space on the top three floors, up to 30 market-rate upscale apartments on the next three floors, another 15,000 square feet of commercial space on the second floor, retail space on the first floor and a microbrewery in the basement.

Besides the top floor, Liazon also expects to occupy at least one other floor in the building. The company, whose Bright Choices system allows employees to choose from a menu of insurance options using a pool of money set aside by an employer, was purchased by consulting firm Towers Watson for $215 million but maintains its operations in Buffalo.

Ellicott CEO William Paladino said other floors will continue to undergo construction work over the next few months.

Amherst developer Michael Huntress has purchased a Union Road Plaza in Cheektowaga for $3.325 million, two years after a Wall Street investment firm spent more than $11 million for it.

Huntress’ Acquest Holdings acquired the 11.37-acre plaza from BRE-DDR Union Road Plaza LLC, a joint venture of New York City-based Blackstone Group and Cleveland-based real estate investment trust DDR. Blackstone owns 95 percent of the venture, while DDR owns 5 percent.

Blackstone itself had acquired the plaza at 3601-3637 Union Road just two years ago for $11.1 million from a separate joint venture between DDR, Israeli firm Elbit Imaging Ltd. and Eastgate Property LLC.

Australian financial services giant Macquarie Bank was originally part of that joint venture until it transferred its share to Elbit and Eastgate.

The plaza was originally part of Benderson Development Co.’s holdings but was sold to DDR in 2004 as part of a larger package of more than 110 properties for $2.3 billion.

DDR then turned around and sold many of the retail plazas to other firms or joint ventures, or even back to Benderson, when the firm struggled to raise cash during the financial downturn and recession.

Built in 1960 and located at Zoerb Avenue, the neighborhood plaza has been mostly vacant.

Recent tenants have included Ted’s Hot Dogs, Extreme Sun Capsule, Giani Financial, Simply Fit of WNY and Evans Law Associates.

Michael Huntress is the son of Acquest founder and former president William Huntress. He did not respond to a request to comment.

Erie County’s commercial real estate market cooled off slightly in March but heated up to a boil again in April, as another 76 deals closed over the two-month period, tallying up another $106 million in value.

Led by one deal for over $20 million and three more over $10 million, the activity continued the break-neck pace of the first two months of the year, with an almost identical spending total. At that rate, the market is on track for nearly $700 million in total commercial sales for the full year – a pace that brokers agree has not been seen here in years.

The biggest transaction involved the sale of three apartment complexes by Michael Joseph’s Clover Management to Matthew Cherry’s Glendale Development, for a total of $41 million.

In the largest component, Joseph sold the 528-unit Williamstowne Retirement Community, a senior apartment complex at 2940 William St. in Cheektowaga, for $23.5 million. Joseph acted through Williamstowne Apartments LP, while Cherry used Williamstowne Village LLC.

Cherry said the 33-acre property, which includes 51 buildings plus a clubhouse and was built in the early 1970s, is more than 90 percent occupied but has some deferred maintenance and capital investments that are needed. He plans to spend more than $1 million in improvements over the next 12 months, including remodeling the clubhouse, updating the units and common areas, and upgrading the roofs and paved surfaces.

Also in Cheektowaga, Cherry paid $15.5 million to buy Clover’s 315-unit Garden Village Apartments, a 17.9-acre campus, with 37 buildings of market-rate two-bedroom apartments. Located at 70 Garden Village Drive, the complex also dates to the early 1970s, and Cherry plans up to $2 million in upgrades and deferred maintenance.

Finally, he bought the 32-unit Fairways Apartments complex in Tonawanda, at 2410 Colvin Blvd., also from Clover, for $2 million.

Cherry’s firm, a subsidiary of Glendale Realty Services Group of Tonawanda, now owns and manages 2,800 apartment units, including 500 in the Rochester area, with the rest in Niagara Falls, Tonawanda, Cheektowaga and other communities. This is his first venture into senior housing, however.

“This particular property was just a large property that we saw some upside in,” he said of Williamstowne. “We thought we could get in at the right price per unit and compete well with some of the new stuff going up.”

Meanwhile, Wheatfield-based Calamar Enterprises, another senior housing developer, unveiled a new partnership last month with Mount Kellett Capital Management LP, a private investment adviser that manages real estate and other investments worldwide.

The new joint venture will include four of Calamar’s independent-living senior properties, all developed within the last five years, with over 400 units in all and a total purchase value of $50 million. Two of the four properties are in Western and Central New York, while the other two are in Omaha, Neb. Among the four is the Eagle Crest Senior Village at 100 Weiss Ave. in Orchard Park, which was acquired for $9.322 million.

Calamar will continue to operate and manage the facilities, while the new joint venture will seek to develop similar projects in the Northeast and Midwest, relying on Calamar’s experience with senior housing and Mount Kellett’s money.

Calamar has been developing and operating senior housing for over 25 years. Mount Kellett has 130 employees in New York, Dallas, Hong Kong, London, Mumbai, Ireland and Mauritius, with over $7 billion in assets under management.

“We are looking forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship and anticipate future opportunities together,” Calamar CEO Kenneth M. Franasiak said.

Among other deals:

• Diversified chemical company FMC Corp. sold its Peroxychem business unit to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.’s private-equity unit, One Equity Partners, in February. As part of the deal, Peroxychem acquired FMC’s Tonawanda plant at 35 Sawyer Ave. for $13.94 million in March.

• Peregrine Senior Living of Syracuse in March sold the Peregrine’s Landing Senior Community at 575 Cayuga Creek Road to New York City-based NorthStar Realty Finance Corp. for $12.5 million, but it will still be operated by the same management.

• Benderson Development Co. paid $3.8 million to buy the 55,000-square-foot Evans/Sheridan Plaza at 428-480 Evans St. and 5199 Sheridan Drive in Amherst from First Amherst Development Group. First Amherst also sold an adjacent gas station at 5215 Sheridan to Sunoco for $1.6 million.

• Buffalo General Medical Center transplant surgeon Fadi Dagher and a partner from the Middle East bought the former Buffalo Tourist Lodge at 1159 Main St. and 19 Dodge St. in Buffalo for $1.667 million. Fadi’s D&S Capital Real Estate II LLC now plans to convert the property into a Sleep Inn or similar hotel near the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus.

• Developer Nick Sinatra’s Sinatra & Company Realty bought the former Phoenix Brewery Co. building at 835 Washington St. in Buffalo for $1.79 million from antiques dealer Joseph Parlato. Sinatra, whose financial backing comes from part of the Hyatt Hotel Corp.’s Pritzker family and another investor, plans to convert the 55,000-square-foot warehouse into high-end housing for the nearby medical campus.

• Benderson bought part of the One Canalside property from Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. at 125 Main St. in downtown Buffalo. The developer is finishing the conversion of the former Donovan State Office Building into the corporate headquarters for law firm Phillips Lytle LLP and a Courtyard by Marriott hotel.

• Richard Kronthaler sold a trio of multifamily apartment buildings at 1020, 1040 and 1050 Kenmore Ave. to a Grand Island investor called Dwell Development LLC for $1.7 million. Each is a three-story, 8,895-square-foot building, constructed in 1930, with 12 units.

Uniland Development Co. can afford the expanded parking garage, after all.

Just months after downscaling its proposed parking ramp for the new 12-story office and hotel tower for Delaware North Cos., the Amherst-based developer is returning to its original plan for five levels of parking, saying it can now afford it.

Uniland notified the city’s Office of Strategic Planning that it will revert to the previously approved site plan for a five-story ramp at 250 Delaware Ave. That will accommodate 540 vehicles and 32 bicycles, the developer said Wednesday. The developer received approval for the change on Tuesday from the city Planning Board.

The original five-level design was approved by the city Planning Board on Oct. 9, 2013, along with the rest of what was then a 516,200-square-foot mixed-use project. But Uniland later scaled the ramp back amid a firestorm of criticism over the proposed public financing for the $93 million project through the Erie County Industrial Development Agency.

That financing plan called for a special arrangement in which the developer’s property tax payment would effectively have been funneled back into the construction of the parking ramp. That was necessary to bridge a $10 million funding gap, officials said at the time, but it created an uproar over what critics described as a “special subsidy” for Uniland.

Facing uncertainty about approval of its tax breaks, Uniland cut the plan back to a four-story ramp for 380 cars, which was approved by the Planning Board on Nov. 19 as a “potential reduction.” ECIDA eventually approved standard property, sales and mortgage tax breaks for both Uniland and Delaware North in December, totaling $8.42 million for the developer and $807,000 for the company.

Since then, however, Uniland has realized that the project is better off with five parking levels, and found ways to make it work financially.

“Through the design and construction documentation process, we have realized financial efficiencies making it prudent to proceed with the original plan to construct five levels of parking,” Uniland spokeswoman Jill Pawlik said in an emailed statement. “This will provide an even more appealing campus for the companies that choose to conduct business there.”

The building will be the new corporate headquarters for Buffalo-based Delaware North, which is relocating from the Key Center at Fountain Plaza several blocks away.

The hospitality giant will occupy about 110,000 square feet as the lead tenant of the new facility, which will have a four-story, 120-room hotel and 204,000 square feet of office space, in addition to the parking ramp and space for four retail stores. Delaware North will operate the hotel, which will be used as a training facility for its employees but will be open to the public.

The project is being constructed on the site of the former two-story Delaware Court Building, which was built in 1917. That building has been demolished, and Uniland is excavating the site at Delaware Avenue and Chippewa Street.

New Kaleida Health CEO Jody Lomeo isn’t wasting any time bringing a new approach to the giant health care company.

Just a couple of weeks after taking the helm of Western New York’s biggest hospital system, Lomeo has ordered the company’s top executives – including himself – to move their offices out of the Larkin at Exchange Building and back into the system’s major hospitals.

That includes the entire “C-suite” of the CEO, the chief medical officer and the heads of operations, development and legal functions. All had been together in the fifth-floor headquarters office at 726 Exchange St. but will now instead operate out of offices at Buffalo General Medical Center and Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital, said spokesman Michael Hughes.

“This all has to do with the change in leadership,” Hughes said. “Jody’s goal is to deploy them back into the hospital so they’re visible to employees, they’re visible to physicians, they’re visible to patients and their families.”

The decision follows the hiring in April of Lomeo, the former CEO of Erie County Medical Center, as the permanent CEO of both Kaleida and Great Lakes Health, after a stint as interim CEO of both. He succeeded former CEO James Kaskie, who was ousted by the Kaleida and Great Lakes boards in January.

Kaleida has put its former executive suite at Larkin back on the real estate market for subleasing, since it still has six years remaining on its primary 10-year lease. At $20 per square foot, the asking rent is $218,100 per year.

It’s also the only unoccupied space in the entire building. Kaleida has hired Waterbourne Real Estate Advisors and J.R. Militello Realty to find a lessee.

Hughes said Kaleida will still maintain its entire back-office operation on the full second and third floors, which it has occupied since 2005.

“It’s nothing to do with the Larkin Building,” Hughes said. “For us it’s about getting our leadership back into the hospitals.”

Russ Conrad wants to put his money where his mouth and his clients are: in real estate.

The Lewiston money manager, whose private-equity firm specializes in sophisticated real estate investments and transactions, is also joining the region’s growing ranks of small-scale real estate developers.

Over the past few years, the 42-year-old investor has purchased four properties in the heart of the Niagara County village, putting not just dollars but his own time and sweat equity into converting and upgrading aging buildings into new uses.

“It’s a great place to invest,” he said. “It’s a great community to live in. It has a good quality of life. It’s safe, and we see more, younger developers coming to town and investing in projects.”

Now he’s moving into Buffalo real estate. A couple of weeks ago, he purchased a three-story building at 884 Main St. in downtown Buffalo, former home of Roxy’s bar. He plans to convert the building, located across from the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, into a mixture of residential and commercial space aimed at the medical community.

Additionally, he’s buying five single-family homes in the Larkvinville district east of downtown Buffalo and two on South Park Avenue just south of downtown. In both cases, he said he sees opportunities in the future for commercial redevelopment of the sites, although he doesn’t have anything planned.

And he’s just starting. “I’d like to do more, and I’d like to really go after Buffalo for the next 10 years,” he said. “I love Buffalo. I’m going in strong. I think Buffalo has got great promise.”

Conrad – a West Valley native and Buffalo State College graduate – co-founded financial advisory firm Princeton Equity Partners LLP. His partner, Michael DiGaetano, works in Austin, Texas, and they also have an office in Naples, Fla., with plans for a fourth in New York City.

The firm, which specializes in alternative investments, helps clients with tax-free exchanges of “like” properties and raises capital for real estate investment trusts on Wall Street. Conrad has developed ties to Nicholas S. Schorsch, chairman and CEO of American Realty Capital, the nation’s largest publicly traded REIT with over 3,700 properties – some here.

But he also has deep roots in real estate, having grown up in a family that owns, manages and develops properties, including farms, dairies, a gravel pit in Springville, and “numerous” McDonald’s franchises downstate. A relative also owns a defense contracting business, and his uncle is a mason.

“So I always knew that real estate was a good investment,” he said, citing the “durable” income, especially in a community like Lewiston and Western New York in general, where values don’t fluctuate that wildly.

“I’ll never be a Paladino or a Ciminelli,” he said, citing prominent developers Carl Paladino and Paul Ciminelli, “but there’s room for the smaller guys.”

Conrad’s first project, his $275,000 purchase of the Village Bake Shoppe building at 417 Center St. in Lewiston in 2006, came “out of necessity” because he had extra cash and “had to park the capital somewhere.” He has spent $50,000 on tiles, facade, an upgraded kitchen and seating area, and plans to put in a second floor with two apartments.

Last summer, he and Mascaro Concrete owner Randy Sinatra bought the former Brochey’s Automotive building at 800 Center St. for $440,000. They received several inquiries, and will convert the 1,800-square-foot building into a dental office for a Buffalo doctor.

He and Sinatra are also partners in the purchase of 120 North 7th St., a circa-1840s former home-turned-psychology practice behind his firm’s office. They are redoing the 4,000-square-foot run-down building and converting it into four upscale apartments, while keeping the “original charm.”

Finally, late last year, he bought the former Collins Day Care building at 716 Center St. that now houses his firm. He paid $330,000 and invested another $50,000 to renovate the 3,960-square-foot building, tearing down some partition walls, putting up new offices, upgrading the facade to stone and new siding, and replacing aging carpeting and linoleum inside with new ceramic tiles, hardwood floors and carpeting.

Now he has his eyes on Buffalo. “I always wanted to be invested in Buffalo, but I didn’t know where to start. I didn’t know where to go. Now I’ve got a pretty good plan of attack,” he said. “We’ll continue to buy in areas where we continue to see jobs, education and technology. That drives real estate prices.”

The five houses on Van Rensselaer Street are right next to a parking lot for the Larkin at Exchange Building, whose redevelopment by Howard Zemsky has revitalized that area. Meanwhile, the two houses on South Park are next-door to each other, and near land already owned by Paladino. “They’re great pieces of real estate to own,” Conrad said. “There might be good commercial opportunities to redevelop in the next three to five years.”

Western New Yorkers are captivated by the development activity along Buffalo’s waterfront, but more than three-quarters of a billion dollars in other construction work is underway 10 blocks up Main Street.

Work on Ciminelli Real Estate Corp.’s new Conventus medical building on Main Street is nearly half-done and on schedule, with the two-level concrete underground parking ramp largely complete and most of the steel now erected for the seven-story structure taking shape above it.

Despite a snowy and bitter cold season, construction remained on track, with only a couple of days lost because of frigid temperatures and high winds. The 180-foot tower crane could not be operated when sustained winds reached 35 mph.

But work proceeded on other areas of the project even on those days, said Vincent Kirsch, project executive for construction manager LPCiminelli.

Even the addition of a seventh floor for drug development firm Albany Molecular Research Inc. added only three to four weeks to the timeline.

“We’re on schedule for a spring opening next year, in spite of the tough winter that we had,” said Denise Juron-Borgese, director of development and planning for Ciminelli Real Estate, the lead developer. “The workers really kept up the pace, so we’re in great shape.”

The privately funded Conventus is part of an explosion of large-scale new construction projects now underway on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, whose total dollar investment overshadows the work at Canalside and the Buffalo Sabres’ $172 million HarborCenter project.

Next door and across High Street from Conventus, land has been cleared and site preparation work is underway for the new $270 million John R. Oishei Children’s Hospital and University at Buffalo’s $375 million new School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. Both will be directly connected to Conventus, but the start of their construction has been delayed.

When complete, what had been surface parking lots and three small buildings will be more than 1 million square feet of new medical space. And across the campus, the steel is up for the $40 million first phase of Roswell Park Cancer Institute’s new Clinical Sciences Center at Michigan Avenue and Carlton Street.

“There’s an amazing amount of coordination between ourselves, Kaleida and UB,” Juron-Borgese said. “We are in touch on all these projects for site logistics and coordination.”

Most of the cost of the other projects is publicly funded, by the government and the university, as well as from Kaleida Health, the region’s largest hospital system, which includes Children’s Hospital. That makes the $110 million Conventus building, which Ciminelli Real Estate will own, more unique.

Linked building

The medical research, office and clinical building has been described as the linchpin for the new additions to the sprawling Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus that will bring about 7,000 new doctors, researchers and services to the city’s core.

From its unveiling, Ciminelli officials have positioned the 350,000-square-foot building at 1001 Main to be the focus of collaboration among various clinical and research entities, designed to foster new thinking and scientific development by bringing groups together.

Besides AMRI on the top floor, the $110 million multitenant project will house functions or operations for Kaleida Health on the second and third floors, and for medical practice UBMD on the fourth floor.

It still has two and a half floors available for lease, including the fifth and sixth levels and 25,000 square feet of first-floor retail services to support the building and the broader campus. A First Niagara Bank branch also will be located on the first floor, at the corner of Main and High streets.

The building will be directly linked to the new Children’s Hospital next door along the entire second and third floors, with the emergency room entry for Children’s located directly below and between the two buildings. It will also have a second-floor footbridge across High Street to the UB medical school. The primary pedestrian front entrance is on Main Street, while a drop-off area, parking ramp entrance and valet parking service will be on High Street.

The building is on the site of a former gas station, so it was included in the state’s Brownfields Cleanup Program. That meant Ciminelli had to excavate 40 feet of soil below ground to clean up the property before work could start. But that also set up the building for the two levels of underground parking, with 318 spaces.

Most recently, Ciminelli “added” the seventh floor for AMRI after the foundation and the structural steel for the first two floors were already in place, adding it between two other upper levels.

Complicated work

Ciminelli, one of the region’s largest and best-known commercial real estate developers, isn’t new to big construction work, having built the Centerpointe Corporate Park in Amherst over 10 years and recently redeveloped the Bethune Lofts. But spokeswoman Anne Duggan said Conventus is “certainly the largest project we’ve ever done.”

“We’ve been involved in multistory projects before. We’ve been involved with remediation before. But this project has it all merging together, plus the interconnectivity adds another interesting dimension,” said Juron-Borgese, an architect and Buffalo-area native.

“Every layer of complexity is also a great opportunity because of the challenge of it … It’s an amazing opportunity to be part of this project.”

Between 60 to 90 workers are on-site daily, pouring cement, finishing the steel beams on the roof, putting up metal wall frames and spraying white foam insulation and fireproofing material. In all, the project will use 3,150 tons of steel and 10,000 yards of concrete.

Workers have poured the concrete for the sixth floor, which is divided into five sections done over five days.

Juron-Borgese said officials plan to “top off” the steel – which means erecting the last structural beam – on Wednesday, and anticipate finishing the exterior of the building by year’s end, except landscaping, she said. Portions of both High and Washington streets will remain closed for a couple of years.

“It’s a little bit of a pain right now, but everybody knows it’s worth it,” Juron-Borgese said.
