Like a growing number of Great Lakes cities, developers in Buffalo, NY have a $750 million plan to add new housing, commercial space, and recreational opportunities to a long-abandoned harbor. But the deal is in trouble due to possible environmental concerns on the property, according to a recent report by Buffalo News Staff Reporter Sharon Linstedt.
"This is the people's waterfront and it's our responsibility to finally make something happen out there," said Gregory Stamm, chairman of the Niagra Frontier Transportation Authority, the agency concernd about liabilities associated with potential pollution lingering at the site.
