The Central Terminal Restoration Corp. and the City of Buffalo have selected the development team that will lead the 10-year, $300 million redevelopment of the East Side landmark.
CB-Emmanuel Realty, LLC , Rise Community Capital and the Alexander Co. will work with the Central Terminal group and the city, first to make the long-vacant former train station complex safe, then to prepare it for reuse.
Long-term plans are still in the early stages, but preliminary ideas include retail spaces, a regional and international food hall and residential units.
