Buffalo Tours presents In the Shadow of the Peace Bridge. Parts of the Columbus Park-Prospect Hill residential neighborhood adjacent to the Peace Bridge faces demolition to make way for the "preferred" new bridge plaza design. Named this year to the NYS Preservation League's annual "Seven to Save" list of most threatened historic places, Prospect Hill is unique as Buffalo's only historic lake front community. While you still can, see this intact neighborhood of many century-spanning, architecturally significant buildings and learn first-hand about the irreplaceable urban fabric we might be about to lose, as well as community efforts to save it.
Meet at the corner of Seventh Street and Connecticut Street.
