In the early Spring of 2021, a Spencerport company, Loyal Nine Development, put a fence around the property at the corner of Union Street and the North entrance of Tops Plaza. Loyal Nine Development was assisting Fallone Properties, who is the company that is building a three story building on this corner. There is going to be retail on the first floor and apartments on the second and third floor. The tallest buildings in Spencerport are three stories high. This is the most significant project since building a Rite Aid (Walgreens) on Route 31 almost four years ago.
Fallone Properties has been around for over fifty years. Most of their experience is with building custom houses throughout Monroe County. In mid-August, Fallone Properties started to dig a basement for the upcoming building, but they discovered that the south wall of the building (Grandpa Sam’s) next to the corner property needs to be reinforced. Work resumed in the first week of October.
Spencerport, Ogden, and Parma are alive and well with over eighty businesses and only a small number of vacant buildings. In 2021, there have been nine new businesses that started in and around Spencerport. For instance, a half a block up the street from the corner construction, on the east side near the Union Street bridge, a new business opened up in September called Clutch On The Canal. Clutch is an upscale sports bar whose owners grew up in Spencerport. There is another Clutch in Greece which has been there since 2016. Also on this block next to Clutch On The Canal, two beauty salons that do eyelashes and other things popped up this year. The Lash Lounge opened up in February and Iris Sage Aesthetics opened up in September.
Near the corner of Union Street and Ridge Road, a new building was constructed next to the Dollar General. Riccardi Italian Deli opened up in this building in June. There was a ribbon cutting in late September. The president of the Spencerport Chamber of Commerce, the Assemblyman of Parma, the Parma town supervisor, and the owner of Riccardi Italian Deli all spoke at this event.
Like Clutch, another franchise is occurring at the top of the hill on Union Street in Spencerport. The space next to Spencerport Hots was renovated to become the drip house. Drip house is a sweat lodge and they opened in October. They have three locations: Spencerport, Pittsford and Williamsville. In the same plaza, Virtue Salon, which is a beauty shop that does hair, opened in February. This makes three beauty shops that opened up in Spencerport in 2021.
The grand opening of Your CBD Store was in mid-July. This is a nationwide company that is located on Union Street next to Tim Horton’s. Also in July, Xtreme Discount Goods opened up in the Village Square building on West Ave. On the second floor, directly above Xtreme Discount Goods, American Elder Care in association with BrainWorks ROC opened early in the year. There are more spaces available in Village Square. Overall, there has been tremendous growth in Spencerport, Ogden and Parma.
The community is also getting bigger with new housing. Sandalwood Estates is a housing track that was started in 2018. It is located on Union Street near the Plantation Party House. There are twenty-four lots in this housing track and there are currently eleven houses that are built and being built and all of them are sold. The current builder is Lopresti Homes, which is located in Spencerport, New York. The owner of Lopresti Homes graduated from Spencerport High School.
