Driving Downtown Streets - Main Street - Buffalo New York USA - Episode 74.
Starting Point: .
Buffalo is a city in Western New York and the seat of Erie County, on the eastern shores of Lake Erie at the head of the Niagara River. As of 2014, Buffalo is the state's second most populous city after New York City with 258,703 residents, and with a population of 1.13 million, the metropolitan area is the 50th largest in the United States.
Buffalo grew significantly in the 19th and 20th centuries as a result of the Erie Canal, railroads and Lake Erie, providing an abundance of fresh water and an ample trade route to the Midwestern United States, while grooming its economy for the grain, steel and automobile industries during the 20th century. After an economic downturn in the latter half of the 20th century, Buffalo's economy has transitioned to sectors that include financial services, technology, biomedical and education.
Residents of Buffalo are called Buffalonians. The city's nicknames include The Queen City, The Nickel City, and The City of Good Neighbors.
Economy
Buffalo's economic sectors include industrial, light manufacturing, high technology and services.
The State of New York, with over 15,000 employees, is the city's largest employer.[57] Other major employers include the United States government, Kaleida Health, M&T Bank, the University at Buffalo, General Motors, Time Warner Cable, and Tops Friendly Markets. In banking, Buffalo is the headquarters of M&T Bank and First Niagara Bank.
Buffalo is home to Rich Products, Canadian brewer Labatt, cheese company Sorrento Lactalis, Delaware North Companies[58] and New Era Cap Company.
The loss of traditional jobs in manufacturing, rapid suburbanization and high labor costs have led to economic decline and made Buffalo one of the poorest U.S. cities with populations of more than 250,000 people. An estimated 28.7–29.9% of Buffalo residents live below the poverty line, behind either only Detroit,[59] or only Detroit and Cleveland.[60] Buffalo's median household income of $27,850 is third-lowest among large cities, behind only Miami and Cleveland; however the metropolitan area's median household income is $57,000.[61] This, in part, has led to the Buffalo-Niagara Falls metropolitan area having the most affordable housing market in the U.S. The quarterly NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Opportunity Index (HOI) noted nearly 90% of the new and existing homes sold in the metropolitan area during the second quarter were affordable to families making the area's median income of $57,000.[citation needed] As of 2014, the median home price in the city was $95,000.[62]
Buffalo's economy has begun to see significant improvements since the early 2010s.[63] Money from New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo through a program known locally as Buffalo Billion has brought new construction, increased economic development, and hundreds of new jobs to the area.[64] As of March 2015, Buffalo's unemployment rate was 5.9%,[65] slightly above the national average of 5.5%.[66] In 2016, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis valued the Buffalo area's economy at $54.9 billion.
Sports
Buffalo and the surrounding region is home to two major league professional sports teams. The NHL's Buffalo Sabres play in the City of Buffalo, and the NFL's Buffalo Bills play in suburban Orchard Park, New York. Buffalo is also home to several minor sports teams, including the Buffalo Bisons (baseball; an affiliate of the MLB's Toronto Blue Jays), Buffalo Bandits (indoor lacrosse) and FC Buffalo (soccer) as well as a professional women's team the Buffalo Beauts (Hockey). The Buffalo Bulls are a Division I college team representing the State University of New York at Buffalo, and several other Buffalo-area colleges and universities are also active in college athletics.

Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane/Richardson Complex
Follow me around the old Buffalo Psychiatric Hospital! Widely considered to be one of Buffalo’s most important and beautiful buildings, construction on the 140-year-old Richardson Olmsted Complex began in 1872 and opened in 1880 as the state-of-the-art Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane. Over the years, mental health treatment changed, as did the buildings and grounds. In 1927, the site was reduced by half to develop Buffalo State College. Patients were moved to a new facility in the 1970s, and the Richardson Olmsted Complex began to deteriorate. It eventually was abandoned. In 1973, the Complex was placed on the National Register of Historic Places, and, in 1986, it was named a National Historic Landmark, the highest distinction that can be given to a property. Today, the Richardson Olmsted Complex is being brought back to life by the Richardson Center Corporation. The first phase of renewal consists of development of the site as a hotel and conference center intertwined with an architecture center in a third of the building space, which is on track to be completed in 2016.

Why I Came to Buffalo, NY
♥ Hi Fam! ♥ The reason I came to Buffalo, NY this week is to attend the NAFSA Region X 2018 Conference. Luckily the trip is paid for by a travel grant and the school so I'm just enjoying my best life lolol. Today I attended the workshop called F1 Student Advising: Intermediate. It was a great workshop even though it was very long. I learned a lot and am so grateful that my school has given me the chance for professional development so early in my career. I hope you enjoyed getting to know more about what I do in my job. :)

Buffalo has lowest cost of living in Upstate New York, report says
Of major cities in Upstate New York, Buffalo ranks the lowest in cost of living, according to research from the Economic Policy Institute in Washington D.C.
University at Buffalo - North Campus
The State University of New York at Buffalo is a public research university with campuses in Buffalo and Amherst, New York, United States. It is commonly referred to as the University at Buffalo (UB) or SUNY Buffalo, and was formerly known as the University of Buffalo. The university was founded in 1846 as a private medical college, but in 1962 merged with the State University of New York (SUNY) system. By enrollment, UB is the largest in the SUNY system, and also the largest public university in New York. UB also has the largest endowment and research funding, as a comprehensive university center in the SUNY system.
As of 2017, the university enrolls 30,648 students in 13 colleges. In addition to the College of Arts and Sciences, the university houses the largest state-operated medical school, dental school, education school, business school, engineering school, and also features the only state law school, architecture and urban planning school, and pharmacy school in the state of New York. The university offers over 100 bachelor's, 205 master's, 84 doctoral, and 10 professional areas of study.
The North Campus, a census-designated place also called University at Buffalo, located in the suburb of Amherst, began in the 1970s. Many academic programs, including the entirety of the undergraduate College of Arts and Sciences, the University at Buffalo Law School, the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the School of Management, the Graduate School of Social Work, and the Graduate School of Education, as well as Lockwood Memorial Library, Oscar A. Silverman Library, and many administrative offices, are located on UB's North Campus.
The North Campus is home to administrative and academic offices. The main buildings are arranged along one academic spine, a second floor connecting corridor, that connects most of the main academic buildings. The whole campus covers 1,192 acres (5 km2) with 146 buildings containing 6,715,492 sq ft (623,890 m2), 10 residence halls and 5 apartment complexes. Its immense size also necessitated the creation of a shuttle system circling the academic sector and surrounding areas including the administrative complex, located nearly a quarter mile from the central academic area. When originally built by the state of New York, the North Campus was provided with two Interstate exits, from I-290 and I-990, its own internal parkway, the John James Audubon Parkway, and two small lakes created from Ellicott Creek. As a census-designated place, the residential population recorded at the 2010 census was 6,066.
The North Campus offers a variety of entertainment programming and activity for students. It contains the Student Union, which houses offices for the Student Association and student-interest clubs; Slee Hall, which presents contemporary and classical music concerts; Alumni Arena, the home-court for University Athletics; the UB Center for the Arts, a non-profit presenter of a wide variety of professional entertainment and University at Buffalo Stadium, the 30,000 seat football stadium.

Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane
Widely considered to be one of Buffalo’s most important and beautiful buildings, construction on the 145-year-old Richardson Olmsted Campus began in 1872 and opened in 1880 as the state-of-the-art Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane.
The project, incorporating the then most enlightened humane principles in psychiatric treatment, resulted from the collaboration of three important designers and thinkers of the 19th century:
Noted American architect Henry Hobson Richardson, father of the Richardsonian Romanesque architectural style;
American landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, who had designed Central Park in New York City as well as Buffalo’s beautiful park system in a partnership with architect and landscape engineer Calvert Vaux;
Dr. Thomas Story Kirkbride, superintendent of the Pennsylvania Hospital for the Insane in Philadelphia and a founder of the Association of Medical Superintendents of American Institutions for the Insane (AMSII), a precursor to the American Psychiatric Association.
Over the years, mental health treatment changed, as did the buildings and grounds. In 1927, the site was reduced by half to develop Buffalo State College. Patients were moved to a new facility in the 1970s, and the Richardson Olmsted Campus began to deteriorate. It eventually was abandoned.
In 1973, the Richardson was placed on the National Register of Historic Places, and, in 1986, it was named a National Historic Landmark, the highest distinction that can be given to a property. It is one of only 2,500 such landmarks in the nation, eight of which are in Buffalo.
In 2006, then-Governor George Pataki identified a state appropriation and appointed the Richardson Center Corporation Board of Directors to save this architectural treasure. For many years prior, committed preservationists, elected officials, and community members focused attention on the decades of neglect and deterioration.
Today, the Richardson Olmsted Campus is being brought back to life by the Richardson Center Corporation. The first phase of renewal consists of development of the site as a hotel and conference center intertwined with an architecture center in a third of the building space.
More detailed information about the history of the Richardson Olmsted Campus can be found in the Historic Structures Report, Cultural Landscape Report, and through our tour programming.

Scajaquada Expressway - Buffalo, N.Y.
New York State Route 198 (NY 198) is a state highway located entirely within the city of Buffalo, New York, in the United States. It is named the Scajaquada Expressway for Scajaquada Creek, which it parallels as it heads across northern Buffalo. NY 198 connects the Niagara Thruway (Interstate 190 or I-190) in the Black Rock neighborhood to the Kensington Expressway (NY 33) on Buffalo's east side. On average, the highway carries up to 70,000 cars per day per the New York State Department of Transportation informational meeting of September 2015.
NY 198 begins at exit 11, a semi-directional T-interchange, of I-190 in the Black Rock section in the city of Buffalo, alongside the Niagara River. NY 198 proceeds northeastward as the Scajaquada Expressway, a four-lane expressway through Buffalo. Just after the interchange, the route crosses over NY 266 (Niagara Street) and westbound serves an interchange with NY 266 and NY 265. NY 198 winds northeast into the West Side of Buffalo, approaching the campus of Buffalo State College as it enters an interchange with Grant Street, accessible from both directions. At this interchange, NY 198 bends eastward along the northern edge of campus, passing the football field, Moore Dining Hall, and several residence halls as it bends southeast alongside the campus.
Now in the Elmwood Village section of Buffalo, NY 198 bends eastward once again and provides a four-way interchange with access to Elmwood Avenue and the nearby Albright-Knox Art Gallery and Buffalo History Museum. After the interchange, NY 198 enters Delaware Park, passes Hoyt Lake, then encounters a four-way interchange with NY 384 (Delaware Avenue). After NY 384, NY 198 bends southeast, passing north of Forest Lawn Cemetery and south of Delaware Park Golf Course and the Buffalo Zoo. After entering an at-grade intersection with Parkside Avenue, NY 198 leaves Delaware Park and returns to a four-lane divided highway.
After the conversion, NY 198 interchanges with NY 5 (Main Street) just north of the Humboldt-Hospital station of Buffalo's Metro Rail. The expressway crosses under Kensington Avenue and continues southeast, entering the Masten section of Buffalo. There, NY 198 enters an interchange, merging, in both directions, with NY 33 (the Kensington Expressway). This merge marks the eastern terminus of the NY 198 designation.
The Light Rail of Buffalo, New York 2018
Is this a subway? It has a few characteristics of a subway.
-
Buffalo is the 2nd largest city in the State of New York and only two and half hours drive from Toronto, Canada. The population of 256,000 has been declining over the last few decades; however, there are signs that it may turn around soon.

Buffalo Metro Rail is the public transit rail system in Buffalo, New York, United States; it is operated by the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA). The system consists of a single, 6.4-mile (10.3 km) long light rail line that runs for most of the length of Main Street (New York State Route 5) in the City of Buffalo, from KeyBank Center in Downtown Buffalo to the south campus of the University at Buffalo in the northeast corner of the city. Daily ridership is 18,500 on a weekday. The first section of the line opened in October 1984; the current system was completed in November 1986.
Metro Rail is a light rail transit (LRT) system as characterized by the American Public Transportation Association although it shares many characteristics with heavy rail metro systems and could be considered a light metro. 80% of its track (5.2 miles (8.4 km)) is an underground subway with high-level platforms. This section has eight stations that are spaced fairly widely apart, comparable to subway systems elsewhere. This section is cut-and-cover from Allen/Medical Campus to Utica, then deep-bored from Delavan/Canisius College to University. ~WIKIPEDIA
