23-1972 : Nowakowski - Pursuing the Foreclosure of 377 Main St.

This resolution initiates the foreclosure process for the property at 377 Main St., Buffalo, New York 14203. The building, formerly the iconic Adam, Meldrum & Anderson Co. (“AM&A’s”), has been vacant for over 20 years and is delinquent on tax and sewer payments totaling $245,984.96 since 2020. The City of Buffalo is requesting relief from the New York Bankruptcy Court due to the compounding taxes and blight caused by the property's vacancy. The resolution directs the Department of Assessment and Taxation to examine and conduct a foreclosure proceeding and hold an auction for the property in the first quarter of 2024.
