Commented on Help bring free public outdoor art easels to Buffalo's waterfront
I am thrilled with the progress that has been happening down at The Harbor. But I do agree...pool tables, ping pong tables, pianos add to the clutter. When we have to bring household items to a beautiful and historic spot,...

Commented on Broderick Park Renovations Underway
About time this park got a little TLC. Actually, it did get TLC about 15 years ago, but no one ever took care of the park. It was amazing how the garbage would pile up, broken glass in the parking...

Commented on 2013 Buffalo River Fest Park Concert Series
I am so amazed at the transformation of this park. The first time I kayaked in Buffalo, we put our boats in at that section, climbed over logs, garbage, etc...just to get to the river. Now look at it. Beautiful...

Commented on This guy's girlfriend is Buffalo!
I've seen a lot of bad tattoos lately (mostly stupid song lyrics on people's forearms), but this one is not bad. Plus, you could always roll up your sleeve and show people where to go when they ask for directions....

Commented on I may be leaving in May, but I will definitely be back for more
The new info does help. However Old First Ward, your history on this site (which everyone can see) speaks for itself. So everyone judgement of you was justified....

Commented on I may be leaving in May, but I will definitely be back for more
Old First Ward,look at all your past comments. They are all negative. However today you try to hide behind some passive-aggressive comment and try to play it off as something else. I hate to be as miserable as you. Get...

Commented on Art Buff: Tom Webb
I attended the very cool pop-up show last Friday night at a fourth-floor warehouse space next to the Arena. This artist was featured. His images are pretty large too (all over 3' high). They were impressive....

Commented on Trimania 2013
While I can sort of see your point, BuffaloRising has been filled with great development stories lately (because there's actually something to report)....

Commented on Trimania 2013

Commented on Webster Block Plan Advances; Alternative Vision Floated
God forbid someone in Buffalo try to build a big building in downtown Buffalo? Tielman and Company...you are WAY over-stepping your bounds on this one. You've done good things for this community, but on this particular you should just shut...

Commented on Citizens for Regional Transit to Mourn Loss of Theater Station
I don't see the removal of this station being all that big of a deal, since the Fountain Plaza stations are about 100 yards away. If anything, it will create a little pedestrian foot traffic downtown....

Commented on Night Lights at the Gardens 2013
And yes, the NIGHT LIGHTS at the Gardens show is really cool! A wonderful thing to do on a cold, winter's night. The Gardens should be commended for creatig such a neat event. It's much different than their other shows....

Commented on Night Lights at the Gardens 2013
Michal, oh how wrong your are. I've had some business dealings in the past with the Gardens and their former offices were horrendous. Two people shoved into a room, smaller than a college dorm room. Plus the new building is...

Commented on Assemblyman Ryan Urging ECIDA to Reject Tax Breaks for Catholic Health Project
Assemblyman Ryan is also full of contradictions. He runs around making sure the IDAs are spending their money wisely (which is a good thing), yet he supports union-friendly project labor agreements, which costs Erie County $$$ millions each year and...

Commented on Assemblyman Ryan Urging ECIDA to Reject Tax Breaks for Catholic Health Project
New York State is consistently ranked at/near the bottom in the "least friendly state to do business" polls in business/site selection publications. I have no problem with the IDA throwing money at Uniland....

Commented on Wegmans Family Garden @ Botanical Gardens
No Paulsobo, you hijacked this good news story. If you read it, the article is about Wegman's helping the Gardens with a new greenhouse. Then it goes into the myriad of events offered at the Gardens. This story clearly was...
