Description
This project website contains information about all of the NYSDOT projects being undertaken on Buffalo's Outer Harbor. Taking its cues from the natural environment and ecosystem of Lake Erie and from the rich industrial heritage of Buffalo, the Outer Harbor Parkway Project celebrates that unique place where terra firma meets the shores of Lake Erie. This waterfront design recognizes the past while looking to the future. The project will be an asset to Buffalonians and to visitors for generations to come. When completed, the Buffalo Outer Harbor Parkway project, including the proposed enhancements, will mark a major step in realizing the vision of reclaiming our waterfront, transforming neglected and decaying spaces into vibrant, exciting destinations.
