Gallina Development is buying the new Seneca Building in downtown Rochester from Seneca Building of Monroe County LLC, which developed the building from some of the steelwork left over when Midtown Plaza was demolished.
The new Seneca Building is the home of Windstream Corporation and D&C Digital Media. Legislation sent by Mayor Lovely Warren to City Council says a new Seneca Building Partners LLC formed by Gallina development will take on the $5 million city loan that was issued to help finance the building.
Gallina plans to expand the building upward to create more downtown office space. The building was designed with that sort of expansion in mind.
