Students, parents with their children and office workers of all shapes and sizes relax around the plaza everyday at noon all summer long, soaking up a little sun, enjoying a chargrilled hot dog from a local vendor, and sometimes even kicking their shoes off to do a little dancing. Every year, the M&T Plaza summer series brings free entertainment and a touch of class to Main Street. We often catch the subway and head over for lunch to listen to some tunes, much our lunch and do a little people watching. It really is one of the best parts of the summertime workday. The M&T Plaza Summer Series begins today and runs through the last week of August. You can check out the schedule below.
