KeyBank Center to be connected with tunnel


SDS

Recommended Posts

Senator Chuck Schumer in Buffalo today, mentioning that money from the latest federal spending bill will be used to directly connect KeyBank Center with the DL&W Terminal via some sort of tunnel. Off the train and into the arena without going outside.

I'll believe it when I see it. They still haven't gotten the train to UB north campus

With the Seneca One project completed, the proposed DL&W Terminal and the north aud block proposal (see link) you can start to see that once barren area repopulated with social and business activity included to the mix. Momentum added to previous momentum. That's a good sign.

Is there a reason for wanting that tunnel?

Has to be. 

An elevated walkway that is partially enclosed to break most of the wind would be much cheaper to build and maintain.

The Buffalo News is reporting it will be  an Enclosed Bridge

TBN says it will be an elevated walkway, but possibly fully enclosed.

Paywall, of course.
