Calling all Buffalonians on June 9, 2007!
This event should be loads of fun. Last Friday night I stopped in Showman's on 125th St. and ran into two people who I know from Buffalo. One was visiting, the other has been here since 1976. In addition, I saw a guy who looked familiar and low and behold, I had met him through another Buffalo friend, Fran. Though most of us have left Buffalo for work, we still have a soft spot for the "Nickel City."
A “Buffalo Takes Manhattan” bash will be held next month in a posh penthouse suite on New York City’s famed 42nd Street. Organizers say they’re throwing the party to raise money for renovation of a dilapidated apartment building on Buffalo’s West Side.
The party, advertised as an event “for Buffalonians and Buffalo lovers,” will be held at 8 p.m. June 9 in a 33rd-floor penthouse at 330 W. 42nd St. Tickets are $20, and the event will benefit PUSH Buffalo, a not-for-profit group dedicated to improving Buffalo’s housing and housing policies.
