It may not result in a construction boom downtown, but it is resulting in a lot of renovations and a new interest in downtown. Open your eyes WNY--things are looking up!
If you travel and/or live outside out of WNY, it's really apparent that it's bad here.

I'll second what Halovet says - is your name "Pataki" by chance
