After a year of open conversations and speculations between myself and representatives of the owner of the parcels making up the former Seneca Mall property, construction equipment will be occupying the site starting Monday February 3, 2020 to complete the demolition of the vacated K-Mart building on the site. In the week prior, the demolition contractor will start to mobilize equipment to the site and install safety and environmental safeguards. The building demolition is expected to be completed by late March 2020, weather permitting.
While demolition is normally not considered progress, on this parcel of property, the residents of West Seneca have been waiting way to long to witness any forward movement.
With the reality that this property is privately owned and controlled and the development planning and approval phase of construction is a long process, let’s keep hope that this is the start of the evolution of this site.
I’ll keep all of you updated as things progress….
