    Harbor center basically has one tenant and that’s an outfit run by Pegula’s daughters. They fell for the old Buffalo solution to every problem...let’s build a building. The Sabres stunk and they couldn’t bring themselves to make the necessary changes to make the team competitive so they built a building. It distracted people from the Sabres mess and the media stumbled all over themselves trying to outdo each other blabbing about the renaissance. That’s about the 5th renaissance we’ve had and the city is still sinking in the mud.

    Buffalo still doesn't get it. All hopes & dreams are bringing retail to Downtown & Canal Side have failed because Buffalo doesn't have the population & economy to support any more retail , let alone in Downtown or Canal Side because their not enough people living there, and the population it draws is lower income on welfare that brings crime & gang fights etc.. Then theirs parking issues & pay for parking, Even if a Business wants to come to Canal Side, they have to use specific unionized construction Co's, have to pay monthly high fees to Canal Side for services and their's strict hiring restrictions that they have to hire lots of minorities & city residence's

    No, you don't get it. Go the F--K away. No one needs the harbinger of doom here. Go live your perfect life in your perfect little world and piss off
    Let me articulate this for you:
    "I'm not locked in here with them. They're locked in here with me!!"

    Doom ? You haven't seen nothing yet. wait till the double digit property tax increase's start happening every year. Every Town & Vlilage Council knows it's coming because every year, the deficit's get larger & larger every year without raising more revenue. Cheektowaga's answer is the council wants to grow the town's population back to 100,000, they would need to add 30,000 to 35,000 people to do that, but Cheektowaga is not AZ which is adding 30,000+new people every 2 to 3 months, and Hamburg's answer is they want to fill all the vacant business on Camp Rd and Plesant Rd will new business's LOL

    You make yourself look like an idiot. Right, wrong or someone in between, it doesn't matter. You look like a total effin bitch that has nothing to do but spread misery about a place that a, you weren't successful in and b, you don't even freaking LIVE here anymore. Again, like the jilted lover that can't let go. Do you have any clue how ridiculous you make yourself look? If this is how you are in real life, you must be one miserable piece of work. No WAY you could be in any happy relationship, personal or work if this is the kind've person you are. Seriously, go live your own life. Fine, you hate it here. WE DON'T CARE and we don't need to be reminded that you hate Buffalo so much. Get the chip off your shoulder and move on. Jesus freaking Christ. You're pathetic

    Just now I ran into a family who just moved from Buffalo and she told me, they moved because Buffalo is a toxic dump and one big Love Canal and tons of people are sick & dying and Buffalo's government, tv station & newpaper's won't talk about it, She showed me all the stories on Youtube and WOW !! I knew the Buffalo River was filled with PCB's & Lead and people still Canoe & play hockey on the ice on the Buffalo River, but theirs love canals all over from Hickory Woods , to the old Axle plant on delevan to Transit & Sheridan,

    Your the idiot who said you seen are these new tall buildings on Walden and the only buildings over 2 stories are the County & State prisons and the empty & decaying old Erie County Home that was moved to the ghetto's at ECMC & Buff General Campus's because it was too far for the city residents to visit their family members, but now it's reversed, because all the people in the suburbs have to travel far to the ghetto's, the pot hole filled streets & crime filled hoods to visit there family members

    Both your posts are wrong. I I know what I saw and you're still a loser with no life and no incentive to do anything but dis a place you failed in

    I was told this is on the way for cheektowaga. The board won't do it until the next supervisor election. The cheektowaga democratic party wants to make sure the seat is won before hurting the town with a major increase. The excuse "Our hands are tied"

    It's because of the uncontrolled 6 figure Pension spiking, the 6 figure retirement bonus's of unused vacation & sick days in a whole 30 to 40 year career, yearly longevity pay go's up every year with seniority, the increasing costs of medical insurances & benefits , The yearly raises , towns & village's payroll keep increasing when new workers get hired to replace the retired workers. Overtime etc.....
