New York State funding will position the restoration of HUMBOLDT PARKWAY to follow-through on our Economic Impact Statement of generating long-term housing and business investments from improved property values of 14 ACRES of newly restored park space.

The people have spoken: A new Environmental Impact Statement is underway, and we will need feedback from residents and stakeholders to gather the correct results from this study.

As such, it opens a broader discussion of how Buffalo’s transit policy can serve a more holistic purpose for long-neglected corridors.
Our leadership owes not just definitive answers to present-day citizens but to avoid passing the buck onto our children and future descendants.

Our hard-fought efforts have once again been acknowledged by the Congress for New Urbanism, as communities across America fight to reclaim their neighborhoods. We have previously made the Freeways Without Future list in 2019 and 2021.

ROCC on the road!

Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting with community leaders in St. Paul, MN for the 2nd Annual Reconencting Communities Summit. Hosted by @ReConnect_Rondo, we're expanding our advocacy for #environmental and #economic justice in cities across the country!

We want to thank our followers for getting us this far in the journey to restore Humboldt Parkway. We also want to thank our allies in the East Side Parkways Coalition for their continued support and quick action in advocating for the East Side.

We take comfort in the fact that Mrs. Stephanie Barber Geter's efforts have not been in vain. While we have our differences in how this project has been shaped, we're ultimately working towards a shared goal of reducing the generational damage caused by the 33 expressway. 💚

[ROCC Buffalo @ROCCBuffalo]

We are sad to report that our Chairperson, Stephanie Barber Geter, completed her mission on Earth yesterday morning.

Thanks for the hard work and dedication you have instilled in all of us, Stephanie! 💚

ROCC Chairperson Stephanie Barber Geter and fellow member Richard Cummings remind everyone about the long journey towards neighborhood reinvestments and local business opportunities for Buffalo’s East Side.
