Davis College sold for $4.5 million, will become Riverside Gardens apartment complex
A new apartment complex will be coming to Johnson City's Riverside Drive following the sale of the former Davis College.
On Thursday, April 17, former owner Adam Weitsman announced the property had been sold to Riverside Gardens, LLC owner Dave Drew for $4.5 million. Plans for the property's transition into an apartment complex have been discussed since last year, when preliminary development plans were approved by the Johnson City Village Board.
The 13-acre college originally served as a school focused on Christian-centered education before dwindling enrollment forced the college to close. In 2020, the college was sold to Weitsman, the owner of Upstate Shredding, for $3.4 million.
The location will be transformed into a 75-unit apartment complex and renamed to Riverside Gardens, according to the news release. The development will also include the creation of a restaurant, gym and post office.

Weitsman will remain as a partner in the development project, with a 10% investment share.
"It's always been very important to me to find a buyer that had the ability to see the history and untapped potential of Davis College and advance a project that would benefit the community as a whole," Weitsman said. "This deal has been years in the making, and I'm so excited to help bring new life and transform this site with a developer who sees the value our region has to offer."

U Power Provides Business Update and Outlines Key Objectives for 2025 and Beyond
Investing in Next-Generation Technologies with a Goal of Becoming a Smart Energy Grid Solutions Provider SHANGHAI, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- U Power Limited (Nasdaq: UCAR) (the "Company" or "U Power"), a provider of comprehensive electric vehicle ("EV") battery-swapping solutions with a vision of becoming a smart energy grid solutions provider, today provides an update of recent business developments, strategic partnerships and outlines its key growth initiatives for 2025 and beyond. Recent Business Developments - Expanded our client base and domestic footprint: Our proprietary UOTTA-powered battery-swapping stations and related solutions continued to gain traction. Our UOTTA technology offers fast, efficient battery swap for a variety of EVs including commercial trucks, buses, light trucks and passenger vehicles, including two wheeled and three wheeled. For full year 2024 we reported total revenue of $6.2 million, representing an increase of 124% as compared to full year 2023. During 2024 we sold and delivered a total of 12 battery-swapping stations. - Established global partnerships: We have established various partnerships in Thailand, Portugal, Hong Kong, Peru and Mexico to jointly promote UOTTA battery-swapping services and we are working on building a battery-swapping ecosystem in these markets. We are partnering with major EV manufacturers in these markets to facilitate the sales of UOTTA-powered EVs and have begun delivering battery-swapping stations initially for taxi and ride-hailing services. - Patents: We continued to strengthen our capabilities and introduced innovative UOTTA solutions supported by a large number of patents (46 issued patents and 18 pending patent applications). Two-Fold Growth Strategy for 2025 and Beyond Our key objective is to continue to grow our existing business, establish new business lines and generate additional revenue streams via a well-thought business plan based on two main pillars. 1. Leverage existing battery-swapping technology to build a comprehensive UOTTA-centered ecosystem. Specifically, we are: Incorporating UOTTA into more EVs in our local market by taking advantage of the widespread adoption of EVs. Accelerate international rollout via several partnerships we have established in Southeast Asia, Southern Europe and South America, and new ones we are targeting. Continue investing in technology innovation and continuous upgrades of our one-stop UOTTA solutions. 2. Invest in next-generation technologies to develop comprehensive solutions for EV manufactures and drivers, aiming to transform EVs into dynamic assets for smart energy grids. Specifically, we plan to: Continue investing in our AI-based data management cloud platform which connects UOTTA-powered EVs with stations and assists UOTTA-powered EV drivers locate the closest compatible UOTTA swapping stations on their route. Our continued investment aims to develop a comprehensive battery power solution platform which will offer advanced real-time data connections, analysis and forecasting capabilities, improve driving and re-charging experience, and serve as a complete urban road transportation solution. Introduce "Battery Bank" solutions into the platform, aiming to enhance the performance of battery life cycle and use AI blockchain technology to monetize battery assets. Introduce "Commercial Energy Storage" solutions for distributed and/or centralized energy storage stations, industrial and commercial EV charging and swapping stations, etc. Johnny Lee, CEO and Chairman of U Power commented, "In early 2024 we made the strategic decision to re-organize and transform our business into a comprehensive solution provider for EVs, with a goal of becoming a smart energy grid solutions provider. The first step towards reaching our goal was the development of UOTTA battery-swapping stations and related solutions which reduce cost and timing of EV charging. Also, our UOTTA solutions are designed to minimize the need for extensive EV charging grid upgrades and facilitate the establishment of efficient and sustainable charging networks for the growing EV fleets of passenger cars or commercial trucks, which we are offering to both domestic and international customers. Our next step is to create a mature ecosystem by scaling up our UOTTA battery swapping operations, which will eventually enable and accelerate the development and implementation of new AI-based data management offerings and services such as Battery Bank business solutions, and Commercial Energy Storage solutions, transforming EVs into dynamic assets for smart energy grids." Mr. Lee added, "We believe our two-fold strategy has well-positioned U Power to grow revenue from existing business lines, create new revenue streams, improve profitability, expand client base and geographic footprint and ultimately create value for shareholders."
