From the Niagara Gazette:
Niagara Falls will play an important role in of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s “Buffalo Billion” plan, serving as an anchor for the region’s tourism industry.
Cuomo stressed the importance of viewing Western New York as a region, and using all the assets of the Falls, the city of Buffalo and the Southern Tier to compliment one another while addressing a crowd of a few hundred business and community leaders gathered at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center.
“We are a region,” Cuomo said. “We are in the same boat. We rise or we fall and we do it together.”
