2021 was a big year for discussing the Bills on Buffalo Rising. Not the team’s performance per se, but the location of the future stadium. In fact, 5 of the top 30 articles turned out to be related to the stadium location, which is not surprising considering that there is so much at stake. Therefore, we’re listing the top 5 most-viewed stadium articles that appeared on the site, as follows:
- Common Council champions building a new Buffalo Bills stadium downtown
- The Buffalo Bills @ The Buffalo Central Terminal
- Financial roadmap for the new downtown Bills stadium
- Bringing the Bills back to the city: Imagining the South Park-site
- Rocco Termini weighs in, adding up the costs of Bills stadium options
Aside from the location of the stadium, there were plenty of other topics that caused a stir in 2021. What is most interesting is the range of articles that caught readers’ attention, from a tiny bar on Hertel to the future of the Scajaquada Corridor. Per usual, readers were heavily interested in preservation topics, as well as business openings. In the perfect world, these two subjects would go hand-in-hand. Hopefully these trends will continue in years to come, sprinkled in with some key infill projects.
