Lancaster Square at Gates Circle

TM Montante Development is transforming the former Millard Fillmore Gates Circle Hospital site into Lancaster Square—a dynamic, mixed-use neighborhood offering diverse housing options, retail, and office space. Thoughtfully designed with walkability in mind, Lancaster Square connects seamlessly to the Elmwood Village, Main Street, and the historic Olmsted Park System.

Since acquiring the site, we have completed seven major projects, including 1275 Delaware, 50 Gates Circle, the Lancaster Square Parking Garage, Canterbury Woods at Gates Circle, and People Inc.'s Linwood Lafayette Senior Apartments. In partnership with Belmont Housing, our latest project will bring 80 affordable apartments to the neighborhood, pushing the total residential units to more than 215, over half of them affordable, further strengthening Buffalo's evolving urban landscape.
