Memories of Falls serve as inspiration

From the Buffalo News:

When David Stebbins was growing up near 15th and Pine streets, the Falls fostered a love for cities that has carried through his decades-long career as an urban planner.

“When I was a young boy, when you walked down Falls Street, the sidewalks were wall-to-wall people. There were shops and restaurants and movie theaters and all kinds of stuff,” said Stebbins, 57, vice president of Buffalo Urban Development Corp. “[Now], it’s not the Niagara Falls that I knew when I grew up. I’m saddened by the decline.”

  1. I remember going to NFNY all the time in the 90s. I don’t understand it. I hope they get it back. All the wing places were busy, there were nite clubs, The Late Show, Unks, and Pleasure Dome were always busy. I think when the mall closed it stopped a lot of shoppers from coming too.
