Buffalo City Guide

Perched on Lake Erie, Buffalo was the gateway city to the Erie Canal, sending people and goods into the interior of the United States back in the 1800s. In fact, Buffalo was so favorably situated that it grew into America’s eighth-largest city, with more millionaires per capita than any area of real estate in the world. These days Buffalo real estate trends towards the other end of the economic spectrum. For college graduates starting careers forget New York, Los Angles and Chicago – presently a greater percentage of degree-holders from ages 25 to 34 have settled in Buffalo than any of those marquee cities. They find affordable home values in a city whose monied past laid the foundations for today’s cultured institutions and recreational opportunities.

Architecture and landmarks

Buffalo possesses some of the nation’s most treasured architectural icons, starting with Louis Sullivan’s Guaranty Building that was among the world’s first steel-framed skyscrapers. The Art Deco City Hall is one of the largest municipal buildings ever constructed and still stands out in the Buffalo skyline. The Buffalo Central Terminal, the city’s historic railroad station, is another Art Deco landmark. Architecture students often head out to study the designs of the 93-acre Richardson Olmsted Complex.

You can still see the Edward M. Cotter, the world’s oldest fireboat and a national historic landmark, doing her job on the waters of Lake Erie. Niagara Square once hosted a World’s Fair and now contains a monument to President William McKinley, assassinated in Buffalo. But the city has derived even more notoriety from a three-story brick building on Main Street called the Anchor Bar – that is where the world was first introduced to spicy Buffalo chicken wings.

Buffalo chicken wings are now American staples, but foodies will want to become acquainted with all the local delicacies: Beef on Weck, a rare roast beef sandwich in a special German bun; sponge candy, a puffed toffee coated in milk chocolate; and haddock fish fries among them. Whatever you eat in Buffalo, it often gets washed down with a glass of signature Western New York loganberry juice. Half-a century before Buffalo wings, Theodore Spiro Liaros was selling hot dogs from a push cart. Today, Buffalonians enjoy Ted’s Hot Dogs at ten locations. You can sample everything at Taste of Buffalo, considered the largest two-day food festival in the country.
