Ellwanger & Barry Building

From Rochester Routes by Patricia Braus:

While the Ellwanger and Barry Building may not look imposing to modern eyes, this eight-story building made of Scotch redstone, brick and iron, seemed massive when it was built in 1887-1888. Constructed by the real-estate company formed by the noted nursarymen George Ellwanger and Patrick Barry, who made Rochester famous as "The Flower City", the building was designed by Andrew J. Warner and William Brockett, the team that also designed the Wilder Building.

The Ellwanger & Barry building was constructed in 1888 by architect A. J. Warner. This eight story building housed the offices of historic horticulture firm Ellwanger and Barry Nursery Company. The nursery served not only the Rochester community but as far West as California and as far East as Japan, Korea, and Australia. This popular seed company is how Rochester earned its name, "The Flower City."

From The Daily Record (August 8, 2022):

The building underwent a significant renovation in 1985, then Buckingham Properties provided a facelift in 2007. 39 State Street Properties LLC, an entity owned by Donohoe Management, purchased the building for $1,075,000 in 2017 from Buckingham Properties with the intent of creating a residential community. But plans changed and the building was sold in August of 2021 for $1.7 million. The current owner, State Street Owner LLC, is a partnership of Lahinch Group, Hueber-Breuer construction and Morrisroe Lynn Development.

The new owners are renovating the building to contain 64 apartment units with rent projected to range from $1,300 to $2,200. Located right next to the Monroe County Savings Bank.
