First Tenant at Oak Hill Commons Opens Doors
ROCHESTER, N.Y. - The first tenant at Oak Hill Commons on Monroe Avenue in Pittsford has opened its doors for business. Scottrade, a leading branch-supported online investing firm, relocated its Rochester Branch Office to 3070 Monroe Ave. in Oak Hill Commons, a new boutique office & retail project managed by Buckingham Properties.
“We are pleased to have such a well-known, established business as Scottrade as our initial tenant at Oak Hill Commons,” said Rick Glazer, leasing and tenant relations specialist for Buckingham Properties. He said at least one other lease is signed and a number of others are in the negotiation process. 
The new project consists of 21,000 square feet of space spread over five buildings. Two buildings are stand-alone one-story structures and the other three are two-story structures connected by common stairwells, walkways and an elevator. Parking is provided at the rear of the buildings facing Oak Hill Country Club.
The design of the structures is similar to those at Spring House Commons, located just across the avenue. Spring House Commons was built around the historic former Spring House restaurant (now Northfield Food & Drink) and completed in 2006. “It’s a very comfortable, modern design that allows for some individuality of each business,” said Don Lasher, vice president of operations for Buckingham Properties.
The Oak Hill Commons Scottrade office will be open 8:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and can be reached at 585-473-3571. After-hours support is available 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
“Scottrade customers who live and work in the Pittsford area will find this office more convenient to visit,” said Branch Manager John Tanner. “We offer one-on-one customer service, as well as branch seminars, to help customers make better-informed investing decisions.” The branch’s former office was located on Gibbs Street, downtown Rochester.
Scottrade offers free local branch seminars and user summits across the country to give investors an opportunity to learn about a wide range of topics, including basic order types and the features and functionality of the Scottrade Trading Web site. More information about investment education and how to register for local seminars is available at Scottrade’s online Knowledge Center.
Scottrade is the online investing firm with the largest branch network in the country. The firm offers a full line of investment products and market research tools to help self-directed investors make their own investing decisions. Though Scottrade does not provide advice, brokers are available at branch offices to answer account-related questions, provide customer service and give tutorials on Scottrade’s online trading services.
