BUFFALO, N.Y. — Buffalo travelers will have to wait at least a few months more to hear the fate of the city’s largest downtown hotel.
Six months after being fined by Canadian authorities and ordered to repay investors $13 million, developer Harry Stinson is sticking to his plans to reopen the shuttered Buffalo Grand Hotel.
That’s despite the failure of his insurance company and attorneys to come up with a resolution and a settlement for the arson fire that led to the closure of the 486-room hotel in the early morning hours of New Year’s Eve Day 2022.
“I’m not going to give up and walk away,” he told Buffalo Business First. “Our plan is to reopen the full facility as it was, and once that has been accomplished, then we’ll revisit the expansion or the construction of the second phase, but the plan hasn’t changed in its basic format, though the timing certainly has.”
