East Village Lofts open at Broadway and Fillmore

Last July, I wrote a post on the East Village Lofts at Broadway and Fillmore (939 Broadway) and the anticipated opening in fall of 2009…well, the lofts are now open.

From the Buffalo News:

Urban multifamily housing developer Eran Epstein has completed his renovation of a former East Side factory into affordable housing and retail space, opening East Village Lofts.

The $4 million, two-year project by Epstein’s E Square Capital LLC converted the four-story, 45,000-square-foot factory at 937 Broadway at Fillmore Avenue into a mix of 43 affordable studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments.

The apartments rent for $325 a month for a studio, from $348 to $517 for one-bedroom units, and $549 for the largest two-bedroom apartment; all rents include heat. The firm said Monday that 60 percent of the units were rented within the first five days after opening.

“This is a much-needed addition to desirable housing in the neighborhood, and the first new housing complex there in many years,” said Epstein, owner and managing director of E Square.
