Silo City
Buffalo's abandoned concrete grain elevators are getting a second life.

๐Ÿ“œ Along the final bends of the Buffalo River, before it meets the edge of Lake Erie, miles of enormous abandoned grain silos line the riverbanks.
Dubbed โ€œElevator Alley,โ€ this is the densest collection of concrete grain elevators on the planet.
One corner of this iconic sight is known as โ€œSilo City,โ€ transformed into a unique cultural space.
