Developer Breaks Ground on Last of New Downtown Buildings
Fairmount Properties' "Building C" under construction in redevelopment block
As backhoes and dump trucks moved behind them the development partners behind downtown Kent's redevelopment ceremonially broke ground on yet another new, multi-million building today.
Fairmount Properties' "Building C" will stand at the corner of South DePeyster and Erie streets within the redevelopment block.
The five-story building will bring with it the more than 7,000 square feet Bricco white tablecloth restaurant on the first floor and 32 upscale apartments on the upper floors.
