Awesome photos. It's great to see that even during a recession things are still moving along.

Yes! There is an unbelievable amount of development going on in Buffalo right now. It is very exciting- we are really starting to catch on, and surge ahead of other cities melting in the recession. There couldn't be a better time for Buffalo to get it right and start on the comeback.

Apartment Project Planned Overlooking Niagara River:
Apartment Project Planned Overlooking Niagara River | Real Estate | Buffalo Rising
Carl Paladino appears to be moving forward with conversion plans for a building he has owned since April 2008. Paladino's Ellicott Development Co. is heading to the Buffalo Zoning on November 18 to obtain approvals to convert a warehouse at 960 Busti Avenue to 23 apartments and ground floor commercial space. The four-story building overlooks the Peace Bridge and Niagara River.
The 67,900 sq.ft. Busti Avenue property was built in 1930. It is the former home of Multiform Desiccants, now operating under the name Multisorb Technologies, manufacturer of absorbent products commonly found in pill bottles among other uses. The company is now located on Harlem Road in West Seneca. Paladino purchased the building along with 1018-1050 Niagara Street from Ciminelli Development for $850,000.

Contracts for Canalside site preparation work were accepted today. Site prep will be completed in about 3 months - then it's full steam ahead.
Also:The median price for a home in the Buffalo area increased to $119,700 in the quarter, up from $114,200 a year ago. That figure is up 22.2 percent from $97,900 in 2006.

The index by the California-based Milkin Institute think tank ranks U.S. cities based on their ability to create and sustain jobs and other factors. The study includes both long-term (five years) and short-term (one year) measurements of employment and salary growth. There are also four measurements of technology output growth, which are included because of technology’s crucial role in creating good jobs and driving regional economies.
Buffalo jumped 94 places — tied for the third biggest gain — to No. 86 from No. 180 a year ago. The area’s best scores were for one-year salary growth (from 2006-2007), ranking 24th, and in one-year job growth, ranking 36th.
