Ellicott Development may be involved in a major project around the  
Fort Erie Race Track, but it's still adding much smaller projects to  
its portfolio.

The company has picked up two gas stations at high-traffic

operating station at Elmwood and Delavan.

as a gas station and store, probably as part of Ellicott  
Development's growing Trading Company chain. He says there is a lot  
of auto traffic through the intersection, and there are fewer and
