The buyer of the historic Jack's Oyster House building in Albany has plans to open a restaurant there — and three other businesses downtown. Word of that intent comes in the first public statement from a firm called NeoVista Equities. It shared an outline of its plans for downtown Albany with the Business Review. The company closed on the Jack's property at the end of March for $614,000 through an entity called Neo Vista 44 State Street LLC. (The Jack's brand name was included in the deal, the seller, Brad Rosenstein, told the Business Review last week.) It also recently purchased 52 James St. — an office building across from Tricentennial Park — for $1.325 million.
