NEW YORK: The first entry for the multigenerational housing Global Award for 2015 has been received.
Vito Gautieri is building atop of Save-A-Lot at 45-47 Ellicott St. in the City of Batavia.
Gautieri is planning a four-story structure with 30 quality apartments with rents ranging from $800 to $1,100 per month.
He expects to begin construction on the “Casa Mia” complex in February. Completion will depend on arrangements with another contractor, but could come as early as the Winter of 2015.
Marketing study gives Gautieri a high degree of confidence that his 30 units will fill up quickly.
“There’s a lot of advantages to living downtown for young people and the elderly,” Gautieri said.
