A long neglected eyesore of the West Village is now ready to welcome new residents and be the latest star of the ongoing rehab projects in the neighborhood. Adam Backus has breathed new life into 78 Tracy Street much to everyone’s delight in the area that have spent years watching the place deteriorate. Backus purchased the property through his company, AMB Real Estate Holdings last November for $100,000 and has invested close to $500,000 for the rehabilitation.
A fresh roof, new paint job, and windows that actually fill the full openings make for a startling transformation from just a year ago. The building has nine, one-bedroom apartments, four of which have restored decorative fireplaces in the front units. Off street parking is located immediately adjacent to the building on a vacant lot Backus purchased shortly after he bought the building.
The 750 square foot apartments boast hardwood floors, 10ft ceilings, gorgeous windows, granite countertops and appliances, central air conditioning, and the list goes on. Rents start at $775 plus electric with winter move in specials. Get in touch with Adam via 716-432-6990 or visit www.smsofbuffalo.com for more information.
