BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Douglas Jemal, the developer behind plans to redevelop Buffalo's historic Statler Hotel, said the project is in focus after he recently sold two other properties to concentrate his efforts downtown, and he is seeking additional state assistance to move it forward. Jemal, founder and president of Douglas Development, sold the Mansion on Delaware Avenue and the Roycroft Inn in East Aurora, in part to focus on the Statler. "The Statler is my primary focus," Jemal said.
