2.\u00a0Jefferson Avenue Corridor seeing changes 4 years after Buffalo mass shooting<\/a><\/p>\n

To those on the outside, new sidewalks, lights and trees might not seem like a big deal. But it is. Buffalo Mayor Sean Ryan says it will usher in more business, wealth and opportunity for generations to come.\u00a0Success has already been seen following other projects, such as on Niagara Street, where Buffalo\u2019s rich Hispanic community is now celebrated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Road reconstruction begins on LaSalle Expressway, I-190 in Niagara Falls<\/a><\/p>\n
