Together with the Buffalo Niagara Partnership and the Buffalo Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Regional Institute co-organized and co-sponsored “Resurrecting Buffalo,” a regional public forum and conversation featuring Harvard Professor Edward L. Glaeser, author of “Can Buffalo Ever Come Back?”.
The forum featured remarks by Professor Glaeser, followed by a conversation moderated by Margaret Sullivan of the Buffalo News with regional leaders, including Robert Gioia of The John R. Oishei Foundation, Cynthia Zane of Hilbert College, Paul Buckley of Applied Sciences Group, and Anthony Armstrong of LISC Buffalo. The forum also included opportunity for audience Q&A and was followed by a wine and food reception at WNED Studios.
