Mural on Roosevelt Ave.

At the corner of Roosevelt and Bailey Avenue, a mural states the all important philosophy of "keeping it in the family".

Bailey Avenue is one of the longest commercial corridors in the city, working its way from the suburbs to the city neighborhoods of Kensington and Lasalle, through the Eastside to Kaisertown and all the way to South Buffalo. A stroll down this long and historic street is a window into a glorious past, urban missteps and what potentially could be.

Water Tower

Buffalo Water Tower

On a crisp December day, the Buffalo Water Tower stands sentinel over the East Side neighborhood of Kensington. The tower was built in 1911 and lost its top structure, an observation deck, in the 50's. The octagonal city owned structure is, at once, identifiable with the neighborhood and mysterious in its purpose.
