Bakery owner 'devastated' by demolition, says city must police absentee landlords

As Susan Adamucci drove her 12-year-old son to school last Wednesday, she heard on the radio that a building was in peril in downtown Buffalo.A short time later she learned the property being torn down included Two Wheels Bakery & Cafe, which she opened in April 2018 as the city's lone fully gluten-free bakery.
Adamucci estimated the overall loss in bakery and restaurant equipment at between $80,000 and $90,000.

But no work was done during the 104 days that transpired between the first roof collapse on Aug. 21 and the Dec. 4 emergency demolition triggered by the additional roof damage.
How many days does the city usually give a building owner to have a repair completed? This wasn't like a broken window but something where people could be seriously injured.

Adler, whose insurance claim in August was rejected, could not be reached to comment.
What type of specific insurance is a business supposed to have that would cover damages caused by the space you rent?

Adamucci said she has been deeply moved by the "the support and love" received the last several days. The owners of Feature Eatery, located downtown, have allowed her to use their kitchen so she can keep her wholesale business going, including baking gluten-free pies for Thanksgiving and preparing baked products for Christmas.
"They have allowed us to come into their kitchen twice a week since this happened in August, and they won't let us pay them," Adamucci said. "It makes me want to cry to think about the kindness that they have shown us."
That is impressive of Feature Eatery.
