I was only going to go to the Terminal for a couple hours to help out with Dyngus Day, but the crowds were so overwhelming that I ended up staying all night to help! It was wildly successful, and there is no doubt that Dyngus Day is becoming a huge event in Buffalo.
Thank God some people over at Buffalo Rising see through Tielman Park for what it is: This project can be just like the part of Main Street with out cars except… in the sky. Brilliant?
