Canalside Buffalo
Canalside is a regional destination and entertainment district, situated on 21 historic acres along downtown Buffalo’s waterfront. It earns its name from its storied past, when the Erie Canal Harbor was built in 1825 as the western terminus of the Erie Canal. Canalside is located right next to Buffalo outer harbor. The area has been reclaimed by the state’s Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. and developed with millions of dollars in public and private investment. With more than 1,000 yearly events and nearly 1 million annual visitors, Canalside is the go-to place for in- and out-of-towners of all ages to learn, play and relax. Check out Buffalo Outer Harbor while you’re at it.
