A recent Buffalo News article underscores how the current ”lighter, quicker, cheaper” fetish has left us with a Canalside that fails to live up to its potential as a year-round attraction. The blame for that runs wide and deep, and the project is held back to this day because of it. 

Peace Love and Grant Street

[HOLIDAY] This special holiday market takes place not in one building, but down an entire street. A slew of stores, restaurants, and pop-up shops will be participating in the block-party type event which will also feature live outdoor music, holiday arts and crafts, food trucks, a petting zoo, and an appearance from Santa, this Thursday, December 1. There’ll also be a special trolley available to transport shoppers from one end of Grant Street to the other.
