After four years at its current location, Fitz Books and Waffles, Buffalo, N.Y., will be moving this spring to a new, permanent home at 1462 Main St.. In a social media post, owner Aaron Bartley wrote: "We have made many magical memories with our customers and friends at 433 Ellicott, and we thank you for the unforgettable times. But we always knew that a move was in our future--the owners of 433 Ellicott will be converting the building into apartments in the coming year."

He described the new space as "big and beautiful, with ample room for our books and our art shows and a dedicated space for our cafe and events. And yes, we will have a patio!"
To begin focusing on the move, Fitz Books will close its current store on February 15, but patrons "can celebrate a fantastic four years at the 'old' FITZ by attending our Huge Book Sale beginning on Thursday, February 6th or our 'Last Night at the Old FITZ' party on Wednesday, February 12th," Hartley noted.
The impending move "is huge news for a section of Main Street that is on the precipice of significant change," Buffalo Rising reported, adding that 1462 Main Street "is located in close proximity to a number of other key developments that will be coming to pass in the near future."
