Work continues on 231 Parade Street

Ferrare Construction installed a new roof early spring 2006.

Renovations of 231 Parade, the former Satula’s Market, began in earnest August 14th when BEST signed a contract with Odyssey Builders to tear out existing walls, electrical wiring and plumbing to make way for a completely new interior.

As crews work inside, the outside is getting a facelift too. Crews from Northwest Restoration are cleaning and repairing the brick and tearing out old windows and doors

Funds for this project came from a variety of sources. The Erie Community Foundation contributed the money to purchase the building. BEST set aside $100,000 in Community Housing Development Funds for the creation of two affordable apartments on the second floor. The Erie Redevelopment Authority contributed $30,000 for façade improvements, and $100,000 in tax credits through Pennsylvania’s Department of Community and Economic Development Neighborhood Partnership Program is paying for part of the renovation costs to the first floor commercial space.

BEST is looking for a commercial tenant on the first floor. Please call Dwight Robertson of Coldwell Banker at (814) 833-3331 if you are interested.
