The Statler reminds me of the Hotel Syracuse, which was recently developed and opened by a development that is originally from the Syracuse area. So, there is at least one example of an old, historic Downtown hotel being restored a couple of hours away to the east and could be an example for the Statler.
Honestly, I'll believe the One Seneca Tower project only when it's fully completed. There is always so much artificial hype surrounding development plans for that building. It sticks out like a sore thumb, a prime example of ugly, boring 1970s architecture. That being said, if this latest developer follows through it will greatly help the core of downtown.
The Trico project excites me the most; we really need more retail space downtown.
More Propaganda, same old same old, Only in Buffalo would thousands come out to walk around in circles, and stand and talk standing on grass lawns and look at a giant rubber duck and all the dilapidated grain silos and think they have really something, The local media brain washing does a good job on the remaining weak minded people.
Yes, but these buildings still need tenants, or they will be failures. Even if they get tenants, what becomes of the building they left behind?
So far, the Solar City project is struggling as is the Athenex project. These together equals $975 million of the Buffalo Billion. Just goes to show you that real economic growth is organic, not fake construction jobs that go away once the building is developed.

40 years ago: "Good news! Good things are goin to happen to the Statler!" Then NOTHING happened.
So...... Nothing has changed 40 years later? I am so glad I moved from Buffalo 29 years ago.

I wonder if there is outside demand, as to why these projects are going forward?
There appears to be some Athenex job openings available, but I wonder if the potential for more could come?: Careers - Athenex
