Mark BJune 19, 2015Stop here on quick visit from Niagara Falls. Looks like they're starting to really make this a good tourist spot to visit. Was able to tour the 2 Naval ships and submarine. Good self tour.

Bill ChamberlinMay 17, 2014This is an awesome place to sit and relax, enjoy the weather (when appropriate), read, listen to bands.

Concerts, ice skating, water sports, yoga, kids activities and so much more!
- Jenifer WilliamsJanuary 27, 2016The food, concerts and kids activities are great. The water sports, arts & crafts and other performances throughout the year are great too!
Very kid friendly! The huge sand pit was a hit and the Tuesday and Friday afternoons with explore and more are a great, cheap way to get out of the house!
DJ BaunAugust 7, 2014I can't believe how beautiful it's gotten down here in the last 2 years. Definitely a hot spot in buffalo if you're looking for some stuff to do!- LaraJanuary 1, 2016Absolutely BEAUTIFUL in the wintertime! Ice skating, warm enclosures, and food tents are available for snacks and drinks!
It's getting more and more awesome. Liberty hound, harbor concerts, Clinton's dish, sweet adirondack chairs -- I like where it's headed.
Have lunch at Roux Buffalo on the 5th floor of the Buffalo News. Soup, sandwiches, open to the public.

John KavanaghSeptember 28, 2012This is what long-term planning and strong community involvement can achieve on Buffalo's waterfront.
Rent a water bike for $15 for 1 hour. Fun & relaxing ride.
