SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — The vacant former Subway shop in downtown Schenectady is proposed for demolition and replacement with a five-story office building.

The two-story building at 438 State St. that formerly housed the sandwich store was acquired by Anthony Civitella, the owner of Transfinder, who built the company headquarters next door at 440 State St. a decade ago.

On April 20, Civco Realty Corporation will go before the Schenectady Planning Commission with a plan to knock down the existing structure and construct the new building.
