Barcalo Buffalo Living & Commerce has announced that it will soon be home to Canandaigua-based Frequentem Brewing Co. Barcalo Buffalo Living & Commerce is the $38 million mixed-use development project underway at 225 Louisiana Street in the Old First Ward.

The Barcalo project is being headed up by The Frizlen Group. Frequentem Brewing was brought onboard with the help of Matt Hartrich, president of Schneider Real Estate, who leads the commercial leasing effort for Barcalo. BRD Construction is a development partner.

“We are thrilled to welcome Frequentem Brewing Co. to Barcalo as an amenity for visitors, our apartment renters and the surrounding community,” said Karl Frizlen, president of The Frizlen Group, who expects the development project to be complete in 2023. “As residential and commercial spaces of this mixed-used building start to take shape, we continue to explore with excitement the addition of businesses to such an important project in the Old First Ward.”

Owner/operators of Frequentem Brewing (see tap list), Meagan and David D’Allesandro, say that they are excited to open a brewery in the Buffalo market, especially in this stunning mixed-use building in the Old First Ward. The complex is in close proximity to both Canalside and the Outer Harbor. This is the brewery’s first expansion since opening in 2020.

“We are extremely excited to be part of the Barcalo project and we are very much looking forward to becoming part of the great buffalo beer community,” said Meagan and David D’Allesandro.

“The project consists of numerous historic structures woven together,” mentioned Hartrich. “Each area of the building has its own historic character and attributes, which lends itself very nicely to a vibrant mix of tenants and uses.”

Frequentem Brewing is one of a number of commercial tenants that will soon occupy the adaptive reuse building. Other potential tenants that could eventually sign up for a space include office users, restaurants, and other interactive businesses and retailers. Available spaces range from 2,000 square feet for smaller tenants to 21,000 square feet. Opportunities include potential for outdoor/patio space options, as well as a protected interior courtyard space.

There are 116 residential units at the complex.

On Friday, January 13 the C. Stuart and Jane H. Hunt Art Gallery will feature the second cohort of artists from their residency program at 403 Main Street, Suite 105. Since the gallery opened its doors back in April 2022, local emerging artists have been welcome to participate in a residency program, which provides creatives with complimentary studio space, programming and networking opportunities to help grow their art careers.

“The residency program is meant for emerging artists who are looking to get their foot in the arts community of Buffalo,” said Christina Buscarino, gallery manager at the C. Stuart and Jane H. Hunt Gallery.“ We provide free studio space for four to five months and encourage the selected artists to collaborate and network with one another. We also have the artists in residence take part in mentorship opportunities with the Buffalo Society of Artists and expose them to other local arts organizations via workshops and guest speakers.”

In addition to rent-free studio space, Hunt gallery’s resident artist program offers exhibition opportunities, an honorary membership to the Buffalo Society of Artists (BSA), sponsored opportunities in local art fairs, and a final exhibition in the main gallery space which sits within the historic Brisbane Building in downtown Buffalo.

As the second cohort of resident artists concludes their tenure, the gallery will showcase the works of Avanna Duff, Eugene Sims, Laura Valkwitch, Cassandra Ott, DJ Carr and Nicholas Wheeler in their final exhibition, “Verge.” The exhibit will also mark the arrival of seven new artists in residence.

“The collaborative space, and opportunity to connect with other artists and mentors has been invaluable,” said Cassandra Ott, resident artist at Hunt gallery. “My focus this year was to commit to my art practice full time and this residency helped provide structure and a local support system to help my success moving forward.”

With a mission to support Western New York artists and continue the resurgence and revitalization of the queen city, the gallery was founded by Peter Hunt, CEO of Hunt Real Estate. Hunt’s desire to partner with the Buffalo Society of Artists (BSA) has created an enriching environment where artists, educators, enthusiasts and collectors alike can gather and appreciate the artistry that Buffalo has to offer.

“The Hunt residencies initiative was created as an integral part of our gallery and we believe that through this energizing environment our residents’ talents and creativity can be encouraged and enhanced,” said Hunt.

The exhibition “Verge” will be on view through February 10 with an opening reception taking place on Friday, January 13 from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. Following the reception, the gallery is open weekly Wednesday through Friday 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Saturdays 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Applications for residencies are now open and can be found at https://huntartgallery.com/artists/resident-artists/.

Effective January 15, 2023, SUNY Buffalo State will formally change its name from Buffalo State College to Buffalo State University (BSU). The designation, endorsed by the Buffalo State Council, requires that the educational institution adhere to new guidelines set by the New York State Board of Regents.

The guidelines require institutions of higher education to “offer a range of registered undergraduate and graduate curricula in the liberal arts and sciences, including graduate programs registered in at least three of the following discipline areas: agriculture, biological sciences, business, education, engineering, fine arts, health professions, humanities, physical sciences, and social sciences.”

“I’m proud and excited that after much discussion, Buffalo State is becoming a university,” said Buffalo State President Katherine Conway-Turner. “Just last year we celebrated our 150th anniversary and the many facets of Buffalo State’s rich history. As we look to the future, embracing the university designation is one of the many ways in which Buffalo State is aligning with the changing landscape of higher education.”

A campus celebration will be held on Tuesday, January 31, at 12:30 p.m. in the Campbell Student Union Social Hall. The celebration, to be attended by students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members, will usher in the new name, while officially setting a new competitive course for the institution.

This latest iteration to university bolsters the school’s focus not only on academic rigor and research but also on access, diversity, and inclusion.

“The university designation recognizes Buffalo State’s 79 competitive undergraduate programs and 64 rigorous graduate programs, as well as the tremendous efforts the faculty and staff make on a daily basis to support Buffalo State’s mission of transforming lives,” said Buffalo State Council Chair Linda Dobmeier, ’71. “As an alumna myself, I am thrilled to see Buffalo State making this transition.”

Buffalo State joins a number of other regional higher education institutions that have made the transition to university status. The enhanced status is deemed as a strategic way to garner new recruits, both domestically and abroad.

“We know that the term ‘university’ resonates more than ‘college’ with an international audience,” said Randyll Bowen, Buffalo State’s vice president for enrollment management. “It also informs all potential students of our academic rigor and reflects the research and accomplishments of our outstanding faculty and the real-world experience they bring to the classroom.”

“Being recognized as a university broadcasts to the world that we are an institution with a cutting-edge curriculum, unique programs, and research opportunities that fully prepare students for lucrative careers and further academic study at the graduate level,” said Provost James Mayrose, noting that Buffalo State’s academic programs are already competitive with that of many universities.

This is not the first time that the educational institution has changed its name.

Buffalo State was founded in 1871 as the Buffalo Normal School, a learning laboratory where children on both the primary and secondary levels were taught, and where their teachers and the instructors of those teachers learned together in the same building. In the ensuing years, the school assumed many names: the State Normal and Training School (1888–1927); the State Teachers College at Buffalo (1928–1946); the New York State College for Teachers at Buffalo (1946–1950); SUNY, New York State College for Teachers (1950–1951); the State University College for Teachers at Buffalo (1951–1959); the State University College of Education at Buffalo (1960–1962); and finally, the State University College at Buffalo (SUNY Buffalo State College) in 1962.

“Each year, we attract a diverse body of students from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures who become engaged not only with the classroom and the campus but also with the community as a whole,” noted Conway-Turner. “The university designation reflects this.”

Nickel City Tinseltown: The History of Buffalo Filmmaking, a film about Buffalo’s filmmaking industry, is nearing completion.  Two filmmakers from Rochester, Adrian Esposito and Curt Markham, had such positive experiences with the Buffalo film community that they wanted to share its history with the world.

Interviewees include Buffalo Niagara Film Commissioner Tim Clark, noted local independent filmmaker Greg Lamberson, Troma Entertainment founder Lloyd Kaufman, and actors and filmmakers known to the Buffalo community: Kim Piazza, Bill Kennedy, Adam Steigert, Rhonda Parker, John Renna, Jason John Beebe, Bob Bozek, Paul McGinnis, Arlowe Price, Richard Satterwhite, and international stars Lynn Lowry and Debbie Rochon.

“I have every confidence that Buffalo will at some point in time become the Hollywood of the East,” says actor Richard Satterwhite, noting the growth in local film training classes as well as local production.  “Things are happening, and it’s absolutely fantastic to see.”

Film Commissioner Tim Clark notes that with the construction of Buffalo FilmWorks sound stages, Buffalo now has three major sound stages as well as a major camera company and a seller of expendable film supplies.  According to Clark, Buffalo is “ready to go” for consideration by major film production companies.  In fact, he noted that Buffalo FilmWorks has one of the largest sound stages in the Eastern United States.  “We’re on track for a good trajectory of making movies here,” says Clark.

Buffalo’s cinema roots go back more than a century. “The first movie theater in the world was built in Buffalo, New York in 1896,” notes filmmaker Greg Lamberson.  “The Vitascope Theater was located in what is now the Ellicott Square Building in downtown Buffalo, and was the first theater built specifically for the purpose of showing films.  Lamberson laments the fact that “if you go to the Ellicott Square Building, there’s no plaque, there’s no sidewalk, there’s nothing to mark this important historical aspect.”

Mr. Lamberson also notes that the first Hollywood movie to be filmed in Buffalo was Flying Tigers, a World War II movie starring actor John Wayne.  This was followed a decade later by Niagara starring Marilyn Monroe, who spent a few weeks in the area during production.  “If you go to a lot of the hotels around the Falls, there are still photos of her at these different locations,” says Lamberson.  “It was a big deal for our area.”

Tim Clark credits filmmaker Lloyd Kaufman with being “a pioneer and a trailblazer” for film production in Buffalo in the 21st century by filming the popular cult films Poultrygeist and Return to Nuke ‘Em High in Buffalo.  “When he brought Poultrygeist to Western New York, it really helped create a crew base,” says Clark.  “The people who worked on that Troma film went on to become union members and work on bigger films and other studio films, and other independent films.”  Amateur filmmaking in Buffalo dates back even further: the local filmmakers’ group, BM-VM (Buffalo Movie and Video Makers), was started in 1934 and is still going strong with monthly meetings at the Screening Room in Amherst.

For some, starring in local Buffalo film productions eventually led to Hollywood stardom.  Filmmaker Rhonda Parker’s locally produced film Message in a Bottle starred a ten-year-old Jack Champion, a Virginia-based child actor who went on to co-star in James Cameron’s Avatar film series. “So it wasn’t just me that saw how talented and how much promise this young actor had,” says Parker.

The film covers much more—watch for it!  It will certainly make you proud of Buffalo!

The film’s producers come with many IMDB credits.  They most recently wrote and directed the successful horror film Clowns in the Woods.  Adrian Esposito’s directing and writing credits include the feature films Bury My Heart with Tonawanda, Greetings from Tromaville, Liberation Unit, and We Can Shine: From Institutions to Independence.  His next film, an action-comedy film called Special Needs Revolt!, is in preproduction and fundraising status.  Curt Markham wrote and directed the comedy feature Saberfrog and is currently editing his next film, a crime comedy called Ragdoll Assassin.

Wildroot Floral has become a staple shopping destination on Niagara Street for me and my parents. Whenever we embark upon a lunch excursion on the West Side, my mom always asks to make a stopover to the flowery depot.

Earlier today, after paying a visit to CooCoo U, just down the street, my mother suggested that we make a pitstop to Wildroot Floral, per usual. Little did we know that we would be walking into a fully functioning, supersized version of the flower boutique’s former self. Wowza!

It turns out that Wildroot Floral zigzagged over a bay within the building… the same building that houses Daddy’s Plants, Twin Petrels, Company B, and numerous other businesses.

Now, if you’re not familiar with Wildroot Floral, here’s a refresher.

Apparently, it took a full year to build out the new Wildroot Floral flower boutique. The additional square footage, and the breathtaking space, means that there is an abundance of “shop-able” displays, all of which have been expertly curated. The added capacity equates to more products, more wedding events, and more classes and workshops.

Wildroot Floral is not only benefitting from the enhanced storefront, it is also capitalizing on the relationships that it has built with its neighboring businesses. For example, they are hosting a class at Twin Petrels later this week… the event sold out in 24 hours. Not to mention that 90% of Wildroot Floral’s merchandise is made in Buffalo, and across New York State.

Niagara Street is coming on strong thanks to a number of super unique, high quality businesses that are now calling the district home. I would have to say that it’s an elevated shopping experience that must be experienced to be appreciated. So what are you waiting for?

The year ahead promises to be a blockbuster for Buffalo! Our decade-long transformation will culminate this year with the completion of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum’s incredible 30,000 square foot expansion and sees the continued evolution and adaptive reuse of our architecture, expansion of our thriving arts scene, and addition of new parks, hotels and restaurants.

That’s why it’s even more thrilling to see Buffalo make the list of Architectural Digest’s 23 Places to Travel in 2023. Among the likes of destinations across the world, in countries like Denmark, Italy, Japan, Australia, and even the continent of Antarctica, our ever-evolving city rises to make this global must-see list.

“Buffalo has long been an under-the-radar pilgrimage site for architecture buffs. The city’s industrial heyday yielded some of the most superlative American buildings of the early 20th century, among them Louis Sullivan’s tile-clad Guaranty building and Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic Martin House—a paradigm of his Prairie style, now restored to its original glory (and joined by an ethereal visitor center by AD100 maestro Toshiko Mori). It was here that Frederick Law Olmsted weaved his network of parks in the 19th century; here that Eero and Eliel Saarinen unveiled their sublime Kleinhans Music Hall in 1940; and here that Gordon Bunshaft added his modernist auditorium to what is now the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in 1962. That venerable institution will build upon Buffalo’s rich architectural legacy next spring, when it unveils a spectacular new wing—among other ingenious improvements—by OMA’s Shohei Shigematsu. Buffalo, soon more than ever, will warrant a weekend visit,” Architectural Digest explains.

Don’t miss out on everything in store for our city and region. We’re looking forward to seeing you again soon in Buffalo!

New York Sea Grant (NYSG) has issued its 2023 Black History Month Reading List. This year’s suggested list includes far-ranging books that touch on subject matter such as:

An environmental justice comic book

A book about the winner of the first NAACP Spingarn Medal

Pioneering cell biologist Ernest Everett Just

Biographies of mathematician Katherine Johnson and the NASA Apollo 11 mission

Stories of Harriet Tubman and freedom seekers along the Underground Railroad 

Among the 2023 Black History Month itinerary:

Enviro-Time: Recommended Environmental Reading Lists for Children (includes over 40 books that will connect young people in the Great Lakes, and beyond, to their local communities and ecosystems in new and unique ways).

The books on these lists will introduce children to scientists from a diversity of backgrounds, to real life accounts of innovation and exploration, and to fun stories that highlight the wonder of the natural world. Each book on this list is also paired with a complimentary lesson that can be incorporated into classroom learning, used in remote instruction, or done at home with friends and family. Additionally, New York Sea Grant has compiled a list and map of locally owned, independent bookstores throughout New York’s Great Lakes region where you can order these books. 

Freedom Seekers: The Underground Railroad, Great Lakes and Science Literacy Activities (a new Sea Grant-developed curriculum that teaches students about connections between the Underground Railroad, Great Lakes and science).

“One of the lessons in the Freedom Seekers curriculum connects history, ecology, and today’s activities at a site that is popular with community members and has been the focus of local organizations including Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper and the Friends of Broderick Park,” notes Nate Drag, who recently joined New York Sea Grant as its Great Lakes Coastal Literacy Specialist.

“Teachers and students using the curriculum are invited to put themselves in the role of consultants to make recommendations for enhancing Broderick Park on Buffalo’s West Side, a National Park Service ‘Network to Freedom’ Site and a RAMSAR Wetland of International Importance,” says Drag, who is based at the New York Sea Grant office at the State University of New York at Buffalo.

“We hope you find this resource to be thoughtful and useful for connecting educational materials on the Underground Railroad, Great Lakes literacy and science teaching,” says Monica L. Miles, who originated the concept for the Underground Railroad-Great Lakes curriculum. “These activities are meant to be a launching point for students to continue to engage in robust, well-rounded conversations about the Great Lakes, an area with rich environmental resources and cultural history.”

These educational resources, and others, are freely available from New York Sea Grant at www.nyseagrant.org/gleee.

Black History Month takes place throughout the month of February.

Want to know how important preservation efforts are to Buffalo’s tourism economy? Architectural Digest (AD) has pointed to this city as one of the 23 Places to Travel in 2023. Yes, that’s right. As Buffalo’s preservation movement continues to falter, with the destruction of the Great Northern, the at-risk 110 and 118 South Park Avenue (demolition by neglect), the crumbling nature of numerous historic churches on the city’s East Side (and St. Mary’s on the Hill on the West Side), the loss of a handful of buildings along the Genesee Gateway, among numerous other unsavory instances, this city is still considered a highly regarded destination for architectural travel. Can you imagine if the City actually believed the hype?

So where should architecture and design aficionados travel in 2023? Every year, we seek out the places that offer compelling reasons to visit, from exciting new museums and cultural attractions to burgeoning trends in the design world. This year, for the first time, the destinations on this list have been curated by AD’s global editors from around the world. From ever popular cities offering new reasons to visit to under-the-radar islands and remote rural regions, our list brings together the places that design obsessives will want to be in 2023.

The Greater Buffalo-Niagara Regional Transportation Council (GBNRTC) – part of the Scajaquada Corridor Coalition (SCC) – is pleased to host a presentation and discussion about the preferred scenario for the Scajaquada Corridor and I-198 on Tuesday, January 17, at 6pm.

For anyone that feels that the Scajaquada Corridor and I-198 are lynchpin projects that need to be critically addressed, this is an opportunity to learn about the immense possibilities that lay before us. Members and supporters of the Scajaquada Corridor Coalition believe that we are facing “… a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to remove our urban highway system” that has divided our city in two. This project presents endless opportunities to reconnect our city, restore Delaware Park and adjoining parkways, revitalize Scajaquada Creek, and revitalize key historic neighborhoods.

We’ve seen plenty of critical projects slip through our hands in the past, at the behest of transportation departments that don’t have Buffalo’s best interests in mind. It’s time for the citizens of Buffalo to demand what’s best for this city, instead of being served up the same slop that we’ve seen time and time again over the years. It’s time to make Buffalo great once more. This project can help to accomplish that mission.

Canisius College Science Hall, 1901 Main Street Buffalo, NY 14208

College may be reached by NFTA Metrorail at the Delavan-College Station
