Press release
Batavia, NY, February 24, 2025 – The City of Batavia, in cooperation with the Batavia Development Corporation (BDC), is seeking redevelopment proposals for the historic Brisbane Mansion, located at 10 West Main Street, near the intersection of NY State routes 5 and 63. At the end of 2025 the former City Hall and Police Station will be vacant, which will offer an incredible opportunity to redevelop a very visible landmark adjacent to the City’s emerging and vibrant downtown district.
A recent building reuse analysis suggested that the two-story building with more than 11,000 sq. ft. of space could accommodate eleven market rate apartments or sixteen boutique hotel rooms. More than 30,000 vehicles pass the site daily, which is one of the highest traffic counts in Western New York.
The request for proposals is posted on the City of Batavia’s website at www.batavianewyork.com. It can also be found on the City Plans page of the BDC’s website at www.bataviadevelopmentcorp.org or obtained by contacting the Batavia Development Corporation. Proposals are due on Friday, May 30, 2025, and a pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for March 20, 2025, at 1p.m. at the site. The City and BDC desire to work with a qualified development team that has experience redeveloping historic sites.
