Buffalo Weather Experience Museum Center

Weather Museum as Waterfront Attraction

Just about everyone who has lived in Buffalo has felt the stinging bite of a blizzard or braced against bands of burying Lake Erie-fed snow. 

"Whether we like it or not, we have a reputation for snow," said Maryann Stein, who is among those working to get the idea off the ground. "So why not capitalize on it? Get something back from our weather?" 

 

Waterfront Place

Buffalo Waterfront Place

From its three-story townhomes to its high55rise condominium units, Waterfront Place will offer the finest in residential living.

 

Designed by Chaintreuill-Jensen-Stark Architects, the townhomes will combine a traditional brick facade with a modern open floor plan design.

 

Lackawanna Wind Turbines

Clipper's Steelwinds project in Lackawanna, New York is passing through a dark and uncertain repair/redesign.   Earlier in the week only the tower on the right hand (north) had blades, so it appears that the lattice boom crane  in the center of the photo is installing, not removing, the turbine hub and blades - presumably after the repair of the gear box. 

This photo taken on March 28, 2008 shows 6 of the 8 turbine towers without their blades.

Buffalo/Lackawanna Wind Turbines
A lot of controversy about Wind Turbines being built on the shore line of Lackawanna. Some say they are an eye sore and will be VERY noisy, and others say Western New York has a chance to lead the way in an energy revolution. I have put together some information about wind turbines in hopes we all can all make educated decisions.
