The Tompkins County Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and President Jennifer Tavares are pleased to announce that the sale of their iconic East Shore Drive location is complete. The Buyer is Steven Wells, of Start of the Diamond, LLC, and the immediate intended use is for professional offices.

Jennifer Tavares, Tompkins Chamber President & CEO said: “We have loved our home at 904 East Shore Drive dearly, and particularly appreciated the views of the lake, proximity to Stewart Park and access to the Cayuga Waterfront Trail. Our team at the Chamber and CVB is considering locations that will make us more accessible to stakeholders and create new synergies with our members, tourism partners, and the community at large.”
