I've written before about Buffalo's need to develop its waterfront, which for decades has been mile upon mile of underused land. Some of this land used to be occupied by loading docks that are vacant and even vanishing following the city's decline as a port year's ago; some of it used to be steel mills and such; et cetera. If you want to see what I'm talking about, check this picture. Pretty much as soon as you leave the downtown area, driving southeast on Route 5 along the Lake Erie shoreline, that's what you see. The picture depicts the spot where the new domed amusement park is proposed to be built.
That's what Buffalo's waterfront looks like, for about ten miles south of the city.
