- Bargains in Buffalo—Great list of free activities and attractions.
Buffalo was New York’s industrial and commercial epicenter during the late 19th and early 20th century. Though hard hit by economic difficulties in recent decades, the city has bounced back, and its revitalized downtown featuring funky bars and hip restaurants reflect this change. The city’s arts scene is also noteworthy, particularly the celebrated Albright-Knox visual art gallery, and nearby Rochester (a 75 minute drive), with attractions such as the internationally renowned Garth Fagan Dance Company, adds to the appeal.
