Dear Liza, dear Liza
Anyone know why there’s a big gaping hole in the Aud? It’s been like this for a week or so.

The Skyway Report
ByDerek
Congressman Brian Higgins recently released a news brief citing a report from the NYSDOT entitled “New York State Route 5 Buffalo Skyway Management Study“. In his press release, Higgins selectively released facts to bolster his position that tearing down the Skyway makes the most sense. According to the report, presented by the NYSDOT at the…
Adventures in the attic

Maybe all it took was writing about feeling non-productive to kick myself in the pants. Maybe all it took was a strong desire to be able to fit both cars in the garage again so we don’t need to scrape ice off them in the morning anymore. Then again, it could have been getting woken…

Wing Festival wrapup
ByDerek
Since RandomThoughts101 asked, yes, we did make it down to the Wing Festival. The wings were, as always, excellent. What Amanda and I like best about the Wing Festival is that it gives us an opportunity to see some creativity in wing coatings and sauces. We are both fierce Duff’s supporters when it comes to…

We can’t save anything!
ByDerek
Another great article on Buffalo Rising, this time showing just how little of the core of downtown has actually been preserved since circa 1960. The fact is, one of the few bright spots in Buffalo’s economy has been the power of the city’s high quality historic architecture and a recent wave of restorations to stimulate…
Aquarama Update
ByDerek
I exchanged a quick email with Larry Lallo from the Marine Star Project. Unfortunately, he didn’t have much to report. The project is at a stand still right now. We have not managed to locate a University to be our partner. Wish them luck! It’d be better to have the old Aquarama out at sea…
I noticed a little graffiti in the hole there as well. The same thing happened to the large Ford plant building on Route 5 a few months ago. I think it was wind, and it took a while for that to get fixed.
There is graffitti in the hole. I wasn’t sure if the hole was created by hooligans to show off their work, or if the hole was created by workers or wind and just exposed existing graffitti.
It’s cheap way of performing asbestos remediation. Knock a hole in the wall and it will just blow on out. 🙂
I’ve been trying to take a closer look as I drive by and my guess is that someone got into the building, got up there on the inside, spray painted the concrete block wall which looks to be very close to the exterior metal panel wall, and then knocked the panel out. I’ll try to get better pictures.
I gotta give you credit for being able to take this photo while driving on the Skyway. Do you think this is some elaborate work of a graffitti artist? Maybe…
Hang onto the damn wheel!!!
You guys make it sound so difficult. I just held my phone up to the window, clicked, and got the shot I got. It’s not like I was looking through a viewfinder, focusing, selecting the proper shutter, aperture, and ISO speed settings, and then taking the shot. Traffic was slow anyways because it was exiting.
