I think people need to realize that this is a city!! I was reading an article in the Buffalo News about Iorn Works and the Cobblestone District which stated that parking is a concern for that area. Really! There are...

This development is very exciting! I'll have to go on a bike ride and check it out. I'm unfamiliar with the layout of the outer harbor though. This development isn't where they are talking about putting the football stadium is...

Commented on TRICO Press Conference Today at Noon - Be There!
Reuse of a building like this has absolutley proven to be possible and effective. I always like to compare this Trico building to the success of Larkin at Exchange. But I have an honest question. This building being as large...

Commented on Mayoral Candidate Sergio Rodriguez Responds to State of City Address
His response points out what the mayor didn't say and yet provides no input on how he would manage theses issues. It's very easy to point out what's wrong....it's actually fixing it thats the hard part....

Commented on Ellicott Development Eyes Waterfront Village Project
Doesn't Carl own the parking lot on court street behind the liberty building? I know it's not water front property but why doesn't he just build here? It might be a smaller parcel of land but you could always build...

Commented on Webster Block Plan Advances; Alternative Vision Floated
I like the idea of putting condos and or apartments into this project on upper level floors. If the skyway ever comes down then this location would provide great views and really could make a great residential loocation. I do...

Commented on A bittersweet day in Buffalo
I do believe that this building would have been expensive to restore. I unfortunately can't find any numbers but look at 14 north street that Carl Paladino resorted to apartments. There is no way that cost $250,000. Also as stated...

Commented on Lofts on Pearl Adds to Lodging Options Downtown
The apartments were fully leased when the decision was made. I read that this conversion was due to noise from the banquet hall that pearl street ran downstairs. I completely agree with more affordable condos. The problem is most of...

Commented on Governor Cuomo Expected to Veto Preservation Tax Credit Legislation
Your right there was probably a better way to word that. I agree that he does love saving buffalo buildings. My point was more to the fact that 7 million dollars is a lot for him to make up...

Commented on Governor Cuomo Expected to Veto Preservation Tax Credit Legislation
I'm sorry but this is a pretty dumb statement. Bottom line is this is his job. He doesn't do it because he loves saving buildings he does it for money. A difference of 7 million dollars is a lot! Personally...

Commented on On the Market: The Dun Building
Does anyone know what the occupancy of this building is? Is it already full? I think this would make a great apartment and retail complex for Rocco Termini to use as a replacement to the Webb Building. The Webb building...

Commented on Buffalo Trolley and Canal Boat Company
It is a unique idea but I would like to see where the parking numbers came from. Harbor center will be adding over 900 parking spaces right across the street from canal side. It seems like that should be enough...

Commented on Trico Reuse Feasibility Study Released
I like this compromise. I still think the trico would make a great new convention center. You could have a hotel in the complex and a larger convention center would allow us to hold larger events. It's location right next...
