BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Some changes are coming to improve a historic Buffalo neighborhood.
New sculptures and banners are up throughout Allentown, all part of the $13.4 million Allen Street Improvement Project.
The project displays the future vision of the neighborhood, promoting diversity and inclusion.
"We've got all these great restaurants, we have two amazing pocket parks where kids can play. So I think it is really a place for everybody," said Jonathan White with the Allentown Association.
The sculptures were made by artist Mark Griffis, and titled 'Emergence', showing the vibrant community in Allentown.
"The guitar player, the trumpet player, that speaks to the music in Allentown," said Griffis. "The at night, they're gonna become big bold beautiful night lights of love because these all glow," said Griffis.
A dedication ceremony is happening Friday at 5 p.m., followed by a remembrance for the Old Pink from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m.
