Buffalo Beyond Flowers: Sustainability in Action bus tour
Saturday 5th Aug, 2017
Want to see what Buffalo is doing to be ‘green’? This tour highlights seven strong environment-friendly approaches to achieving ‘green’ responsibility within the city.
From the community-based rooftop garden above the historic Broadway market to a million dollar project on Lake Erie, from the ecological land revival at the Central Terminal to the reclaimed residential sites that now feature urban farms, from the neighborhood rain gardens to the bio-retention cell on the Medical Campus which are helping to save the sewer system – these projects proudly acclaim a solid commitment to environmental improvements and successes.
Tour Stops include:
• Massachusetts Avenue Project
• P.U.S.H. 14th Street Gardens
• Wilkeson Pointe
• Mutual Riverfront Park
• Broadway Market Rooftop Garden
• Urban Habitat Project at the Central Terminal
• Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus bio-retention cell
As Buffalo continues to reinvent itself, we can be proud of the proliferation of these kinds of projects. They represent the new vision that has influenced the use of available land toward more environmentally conscious use. See what is happening and personally meet each site leader!
