    The last street, Before Chandler, was Grote Street. It runs parallel with Amherst Street from Elmwood Ave to Military Road. Grote Street, along with Amherst Street, cap the zig-zag of one-way residential streets beginning with Bridgman and ending Germain. Nice Vlog. 🥸

    Years ago, Buffalo had or you could get whatever you wanted and needed!! It was amazing! One auto parts store owner told us if you could stump him, the parts were free!! We never could, Jake had everything in Tonawanda!! You name it. Twin city auto parts!!

    Brought back a lot of memories. The boost mobile on the corner of Amherst and Military used to be a restaurant many years ago

    The Show City Confidential described Buffalo as "The City of Trees"!

      In the 50s and 60s there were even more trees. Then Dutch elm disease arrived and destroyed many of the magnificent arching elm "alleys" as the French would call them.

      @@michaeljarosz4062 I lived part of my childhood in Black Rock and I remember that there was so many huge mature trees that the streets were completely shaded. I left Buffalo when I was 18 (1975) and I returned in 2017 for a death in the family. I decided to stay and I live in North Buffalo, it was like I never left - still huge mature trees (oak, maple, black walnut,etc) line the streets. I guess I missed the Dutch Elm disease because when I came back Buffalo looked like I never left. Best wishes to you!!!

      Good point when making the video. I had the idea to do a bunch of streets in Buffalo, then I stopped. Grant was one of the streets thats why I didn't really show it

    All the weeds in the sidewalks, graffiti, street quality, etc... the city just looks run down and old / not maintained or cared for. Even if there is a rebounding occurring - the general aesthetics of the city matter. Ive been looking at places to move to, Buffalo being one of them. I really prefer cities that take pride in the small details.

    • @GeoffSBuffalo

      The last line in your comment is harsh. If you look into the history of Buffalo you will see for the past 50 plus years the city has struggled with a mass population and job loss this caused the city to struggle with funding. Many people take great pride in our city. I hope you find a place that suites you but to claim the city doesn't have pride in small details is misguided at best.

      @@GeoffSBuffalo The mass population and job loss was due to NAFTA under the Clinton Administration. Our friend worked at Trico and his job was sent to Mexico when they closed. He was offered $6.50 an hour and would have had to move to Brownsville TX. It ruined his life because he went from one crappy job to the next until he could retire on practically nothing but to this day he will vote Democrat, the same party that ruined Western New York. I love Buffalo, will never put it down but we moved out of there in '96 for North Carolina and never looked back.
