Things to do in Buffalo
Buffalo grew rich as the western terminus of the Erie Canal and a center of grain, steel and shipping, and that wealth left behind an exceptional collection of architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright, H. H. Richardson and Louis Sullivan, plus a park system designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. Today the economy leans on health care and life sciences around the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, the University at Buffalo, banking, with M&T Bank headquartered downtown, and cross-border trade with Canada over the Peace Bridge.
