fixBuffalo: Lofts or Landfill?

3/28/2007

Walking along William Street the other day, towards sunset, I spotted these places.

Know nothing more about them. They look totally cool and will be ready for the landfill or loft development one of these days.

Then not so long later, it became just another casualty of a culture that decided cheesy tract "homes" and stripmalls would be a better way of living.

I'd say the landfill option is about 700x more likely than loft development. Shrunken parts of this city like this can no longer support all these buildings...sad to say.; 2:49 PM, March 30, 2007
