Issa, who was drawn to the Statler Towers because of its historic nature, also confirmed he has made several trips to the Central Terminal complex and might be interested in redeveloping the long-neglected Buffalo landmark.
“It’s too early to say if anything will come of it, but it has a lot of potential,” he said.
Issa has had preliminary conversations with the Central Terminal Restoration Corp., the nonprofit group that owns the historic rail station, as well as with Common Council President David Franczyk.
“I think we could start with a mixed-use project in the baggage building and go from there. I’d like to see Amtrak move its local operations back there,” Issa said.
The developer said he’s serious enough about the terminal to have his architects sketch out preliminary reuse plans.
