• Commented on Dino BBQ Picks Franklin Street Location
  As a former UofR undergrad, I can tell you that the rochester location was/is awesome... a bit undersized, but very cool. Amazing food. This will be bad for me, health-wise....
• Commented on Conceptual Design for Women & Children's Hospital Released
  Glad to hear the external color scheme could change, I'm not really a fan of the green on white look. I have to admit, I'm a bit underwhelmed with these renderings... but I'm just happy to see this much needed...
• Commented on Two Visions Offered for Gates Hospital Site
  I laughed at the Vet School at first, but its actually a pretty interesting idea. Points for creativity!...
• Commented on Latest Bills Ownership Rumors From Ed Kilgore
  Did I miss something? Where is all of this negativity coming from? Someone could buy the Bills, keep them in Buffalo, AND build a new stadium.... sounds pretty good to me! As far as I'm concerned, I'd love to see...
• Commented on Design Revised for Roswell Park Clinical Sciences Center
  Agreed. Pittsburgh (UPMC) & West Philadelphia (Penn) are just two examples of how a blossoming medical campus can revitalize an area. Hospitals offer a good range of jobs (MDs & PhDs to Line cooks)that infuse a lot of cash into...

  Completely agree... the key point being the need for a 'viable reuse plan.'...
• Commented on Preservation Ready: Bethlehem Vigil - Overnight!
  "one can be worked on" Great, in the meantime it will continue to be neglected and fall to pieces. I'm all for saving significant buildings, and by all accounts this is a interesting piece of Buffalo's architectural history, but the...
• Commented on HOK's Winning Ideas- More Renderings
  I think the gold in that image is meant sunlight reflecting off the glass... at least I hope that is the case. I think these renderings are much more useful than the white light emitting structures that were posted earlier....
• Commented on Western New York Adaptive Water Sports
  I'm still annoyed that I never learned how to sail, despite living on a great lake for the first 18 years of my life. Seems like a great organization....
• Commented on The Bills are Favorites in 8 Games Next Year
  I must be missing something, but I can't understand why most odds-makers have us as an even match with the Dolphins... they are going to be terrible. I'm not sure the Pats are keeping it together this year, the Jets...
• Commented on New Units at 14 North Street Begin to Take Shape
  Wow... those windows are beautiful. I'm not sure I'm totally into the kitchen lay out for what it appears to be, but otherwise looks great. Looking forward to seeing the final product....
• Commented on The True Cost of Sprawl: How is this justified?
  I live in a city and pick up groceries at nice grocery stores once a week without a major problem. Not to mention the option of store delivery for those with less time or less able-bodied. Is it less convenient?...
• Commented on The True Cost of Sprawl: How is this justified?
  If you want to see the actual effects of sprawl on a city, come to Philadelphia. The infrastructure in and out of the city (76, 95, 676, the regional rails, etc) completely inadequate for the number of people that need...

• Commented on Buffalo: The Capital of Dyngus Day
  God, that looks like fun... I do have to say that, despite the unfortunate name of "Buffalo For Real", the videos coming from that effort are usually really well done. One of the things I miss the most about Buffalo...
