Buffalo - Statler, AM&A's & New Skyscraper

[Tiburon1724]

So an investor named Basher Issa has purchased the Statler Towers and is converting it into 200 condos, a 150 room hotel, office and retail space as well. He is also going to build a "tall symbolic" building Downtown. Also, the former AM&A's building downtown is being sold and the new owner is planning to turn it into apartments, retail and offices. These are just a couple of the new developments downtown!!

Are there any renderings for any of these projects?

A new skyscraper would be good news! It seems like everything like this that gets announced always seems to fall through (remember Adelphia's plans). Can anything be done to turn Buffalo around?

Wow. That would be a nice change to Buffalo's skyline.

Any idea when construction starts?

I'll believe it when I see it, but I hope this becomes a reality.
