BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — On Friday, the Cobblestone District was alive with music as Cobblestone Live filled the area with vendors and food. But, the district did not always look as lively.
Leigh Snodgrass, a ten-year resident of Buffalo, remembers only coming towards the area for Riverworks or Ironworks.

"To be honest I don't remember anything from this area when I first moved here, but they have done a good job at drawing people to this area, and having enough going on here to keep them here has created the biggest difference,"
Local leaders like Fillmore Council Member Mitch Nowakowski told 7 News the new developments of restaurants and breweries are just the beginning of the project.

"Cobblestone is really a connection to Downtown. We are starting to see the River-line and with a lot of people trying to make Cobblestone interconnected Canalside and to the greater downtown."
Council Member Mitch Nowakowski also says the 110 South Park buildings that the city was hoping to take by eminent domain are heading into a litigation case that will be heard in September.
