Using the parcel number, the buildings include the closed Big Lots, closed Tim Hortons, as well as Community Bank and Family Dollar, both of which are currently open. <\/p>\n<p>In 2025, Tim Hortons opened a new restaurant at 10 South Main St. where the former Jimmy\u2019s and Friendly\u2019s restaurants had been located. The original Tim Hortons building has remained empty ever since. <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Big Lots closed in early 2025 after being there for 30 years. Before Big Lots, the building was a Quality Markets location. <\/p>\n<p>In 2025, Savarina Corporation was suing the city of Jamestown to lower its tax assessment. The company wanted its assessment dropped from about $2.3 million to $154,000.  <\/p>\n<p><img width=\"1100\" height=\"825\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Brooklyn-Square-Tim-Hortons-1100x825.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption\">716 Rapid Rentals, LLC is seeking a tenant for the former Tim Hortons building in Brooklyn Square.<br \/>\nP-J photo by Gregory Bacon\n<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit was discontinued in May according to court documents filed in state Supreme Court. The city, school district and Savarina Corporation signed off on it. <\/p>\n<p>Even though the sale had gone through in March, ending the lawsuit took a couple of months longer. <\/p>\n<p>No plans have been announced for either the former Tim Hortons or Big Lots. <\/p>\n<p>There are signs out front of the buildings by Jamestown\u2019s Rental Properties, saying they are available for lease. A message was left for Jamestown\u2019s Rental Properties seeking comment. <\/p>\n<p><img width=\"1100\" height=\"825\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Brooklyn-Square-Community-Bank-1100x825.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption\">Community Bank in Brooklyn Square is one of four buildings that was sold to 716 Rapid Rentals, LLC.
