Center City

Located at the crossroads of the Jay Street pedestrian way and State Street, this project focuses on reinforcing the urban fabric of downtown Schenectady. The existing 4 story 210,000 square foot mixed use building will include a new 50,000 square foot addition to engage the main city center corner and the transformation of an existing structure to accommodate new energy efficient and sustainable restaurants, retail, office space, and health & fitness facilities. The integration of sustainable building practices will enhance this development’s contributions as a vibrant destination in the city. The developer has been in contact with NYSERDA to start the process of identifying cost-effective, energy-efficient design measure to be implemented in the design. The estimated cost of this project: $15,000,000. Estimated completion date: November 2010.
