Eak... And it just keeps coming.
At least Downtown Buffalo is getting some new development too. |
Buffalo'd!

I love this series!

wow
so many of those places don't have fenced yards i can't imagine living without a fence |
The galleria is being expanded right now too, there will be a Cheesecake Factory and Barnes&Noble where part of that parking ramp is, and a new Regal Cinema. I can also claim to have played tennis in gym class on those courts in the upper left of the picture of the mall. It's pretty ridiculous here, and the worst part of the sprawl is the ugly as shit UB north campus. It's like a self-contained small city right outside of a city that could have used the campus to take up some of the large amount of space it has to offer. Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

Yowsers. You could fit 8 of the Las Vegas "computer chip" sprawl houses on one of those huge Buffalo lots. Just look at those ridiculous driveways, you could have 10 people over without anyone having to park on the street.

I've noticed when traveling to the northeast that a lot of new neighborhoods are carved out of the woods and almost all trees are cut down, and not replanted. A person in a coffee shop in NH told me that many people don't want trees, because they want all the light possible in the gray months. I guess that makes sense. In states like Texas where summers are so hot, we keep most of our trees in the forested areas like East Texas, and in non-woodsy areas we plant them so that when the neighborhood ages, it becomes shaded for the brutal summeres and becomes attractive. Maybe it is indeed just a factor of climate. I don't really know. Any thoughts on that?

Why do so many people need pools in Buffalo? Is this the new suburban status symbol? I grew up in sprawl in Philadelphia, but I don't remember many people having pools then (left in 2001).

Reminds me of Milwaukee's housing stock. If there were more trees and less pastel colour paints, I'd probably tell you that was Milwaukee. |
Its a friggen shame...

The pools are for gazing and reflecting, not swimming. :)

None of the links are working for me.

Yucky! These don't help my hangover. Ha. :yuck:
