After decades of neglect City of Batavia condemned this former train station building and hired
Lane Allen Architects to help with it’s renovation. This renovation included the repair of deteriorating
masonry and window frames,window replacement, the opening of upper storefront windows that had
been paneled over, and replacement of the signage band and woodwork.(left facade)
The left facade was renovated by Lane Allen Architects in 1997, with help from Batavia’s Facade
Grant program. The new storefront design reopened large upper windows that had been paneled over.
This restored the storefront to it’s original proportions and provides a lighter, more airy feel to the interior.
The renovation also included the repair and restoration of deteriorating masonry and the restoration and
painting of rotting window frames. (right facade)
