ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM) – Plans for a new apartment building in downtown Elmira are moving forward after disputes over zoning and allocated parking spots for residents.

The Reynolds Way Apartment project would renovate four existing buildings into new apartment buildings with 42 units and parking. The Arbor Housing project would be located on two pieces of land, one on the 400 block of E. Church Street and the second on the 300 block of Academy Place.

Issues regarding the parking arose during a Chemung County Industrial Development Agency meeting on Sept. 16 when Executive Director Joe Roman said there was “opposition” to the project and that if issues were not resolved he was “not too hopeful that those buildings will ever see a developer come in and renovate them.”
