Labatt USA is joining forces with Pegula Sports and Entertainment (PSE) to be a major part of the development plans of 79 Perry Street in the Cobblestoen District. Labatt announced that it will be the anchor tenant in the 70,000 square foot building (constructed in 1919). Labatt says that it will create a beer destination on the first floor of the building. The “innovative beer and brewing destination” will be branded the “John Labatt Project.” The concept will feature a restaurant, and a pilot brewery where beer fans can taste the latest and greatest batches of beer, which will ultimately influence new beer development. Their corporate offices will relocate to the second floor. The remaining floors may be converted to residential.
