Project Update: 95 Perry Street

Renovation work at the former Benlin Warehouse, 95 Perry at the corner of Mississippi Street, is on track for completion this autumn. Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) will be the anchor tenant in the building taking two floors of space. ESDC will be relocating and expanding from space in the Liberty Building.

Savarino Companies and Avalon Development are teaming up on the $8 million make-over of the 1930’s warehouse building in the Cobblestone District. Plans by the Erie County Industrial Development Agency to take space in the building have been put on hold for the time being.

Contrary to rumors that planned apartments were being nixed to provide for additional office space, the development will contain nine residential units on the second floor.

“We are definitely doing a mixed-use building at 95 Perry and one floor of it is residential,” says Julia M. Savarino, Project Associate.

The building will also feature ground floor retail/restaurant space.
