Buffalo Boy's Blog

We have been waiting for the ressurection of the city of Buffalo for some years now. The new Peace Bridge has been talked about, the commercial slip along the canal and Buffalo Harbor, Bass Pro, Museums and all this stuff has been talked about time and time again with little or no action.

Finally though the talk may be turning into action. Yes over the last few years if you drive into Buffalo there are a few new skyline buildings but nothing significant, we have seen Labatt open its US headquarters downtown and hints of things to come.

What we haven't seen is this big movement that we have all been promised. New 4 reported on it and like all reports on the news you take it with a grain of salt around here because it seems like something always falls through. The underground Aquarium up in the Falls went no where and the Adelphia fiasco are two big things that fell apart that leave many of us critical.

However, there is something to it that this stuff like Bass Pro keeps coming up, they are finally starting work on the Aud and finally looks like they are breaking ground on several new projects downtown, so maybe, just maybe we are headed in the right direction. The event they are planning to have much of this stuff in place for is the NCAA tournament that comes back to Buffalo in 2010 that went extremely well last time. Maybe this time we have reason to think things will get done?
