The First Ward

Filed under As It Happened, Photos

I’ve been in Buffalo for about three days for my sister’s graduation and, while I don’t really have much time here, I had to get some picture-taking in. For all of the culture and economic prosperity that New York City has, it really doesn’t quite appeal to me as much as dear old Buffalo. I was hanging out with Russell on Tuesday and suggested that we go to the Lovejoy neighborhood to take some pictures. On the way there, we drove past the First Ward and I immediately instructed him to exit the expressway so we could take pictures there instead. We walked around for about half an hour, snapping photos of the old industrial neighborhood. I’m really starting to sound like a broken record, the way I say “I LOVE BUFFALO” every five seconds whenever I come home.
