TAYLOR awarded contract for Tesla facility

Henrietta, NY TAYLOR has been awarded the construction contract for the new Tesla service, education, and vehicle display center. TAYLOR is teaming with Rochester Motors NY LLC, a joint venture of Truett Realty Group (TRG) and JBL Development, for a conversion of the former York Furniture Gallery into the eventual 30,000 s/f location at 3535 W. Henrietta Rd. Completion of this new facility will prompt the relocation of its current operations from 3300 W. Henrietta Rd.

“We are proud to establish a relationship with Truett Realty Group and JBL Development to help deliver the new Tesla service, education and vehicle display center to the Rochester market,” said TAYLOR president, Karl Schuler. “As one of America’s favorite electric car models, TAYLOR looks forward to being a small part of Tesla’s mission to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy.”

The new Tesla facility will occupy 30,000 s/f of the original 50,000 s/f that the former York Furniture Galley was comprised of, with 20,000 s/f being demolished to make room for the new façade as well as the expanded 162-space parking area in front of and around the entire building. The remaining interior will be fully renovated for a service department, featuring 14 vehicle lifts, dedicated parts & storage area, wash bay, customer lounge, and limited showroom.
