The former Hector’s Hardware store at 5355 Transit Road, Clarence, has been sold to an affiliate of Bevilacqua Development for $1.4 million.

The town planning board in July approved a plan to convert the former store into a retail and restaurant plaza featuring the Dave’s Hot Chicken franchise, but this plan is not set in stone, according to Bevilacqua Development’s managing member, Jonathan Bevilacqua.

He said discussions with a potential tenant continue, but there is no timeline for development of the site. “I bought the property because it fits in well with the rest of my portfolio on the Transit Road corridor,” Bevilacqua said.

Any development would involve renovating the existing building, he said.

Bevilacqua’s 5355 Transit Road LLC purchased the property from Maple Transit Management Associates, which has owned the site since 1986.
