Douglas Jemal on the brink of owning 457-space parking ramp

The Buffalo Common Council is expected to pass the city’s possessory rights to Jemal’s Seneca LLC on Nov. 30.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — The official ownership of the 457-space Seneca One tower parking ramp – located beneath the 38-story downtown building – is about to transfer from the City of Buffalo to Douglas Jemal.

The Buffalo Common Council is expected to pass the city’s possessory rights to Jemal’s Seneca LLC on Nov. 30. The transfer has been in the works since May 2020, when Jemal filed a notice with the city to exercise his “rights of reacquisition” of the ramp.

Jemal, who acquired Seneca One in October 2016, owns the Exchange Street parking ramp, located across Washington Street from Seneca One Tower. The two ramps give Jemal control of nearly 1,000 parking spaces near the tower.
