Elmwood by Banner: Yellow

Over the course of this series, our video camera will follow Elmwood Village Association’s Executive Director, Justin Azzarella, through a series of Elmwood Village locations. Each week we'll focus on one of the four different colored banner districts along Elmwood Avenue. The districts are designated by blue, green, yellow and red banners, from north to south, beginning at Forest Avenue.
In our third installment, we focus on the Yellow Banner District and take you inside beautifully unique shops, such as the Village Beer Merchant, LU Modern Classics and Be You Tiful. Also check out some of these great places Mode, Blue Mountain Coffees and much more.
Join us in exploring this exciting commercial district, and get to know the various locations and proprietors at each of these stops. With over 200 independently-owned shops and restaurants to discover and enjoy, you'll be sure to find unique and extraordinary furnishings, gifts, clothing and something to sate your appetite.

A shopping trip for local handcrafted goodies at Buffalo's only monthly independent artis …
We all got here in the same way, and we all have a woman to thank for her part in it. My mother, Nelle, was the last of a family of nine, whose parents came from Tortorici, Sicily.
