This is an excerpt from an interview in today’s Buffalo News with Rep. Louise Slaughter:
What tops your agenda for Buffalo?
“We’ve brought in millions of dollars to the Fruit Belt. We were working on the (Broadway) market, but that fell apart. I’m still hoping that someday we can get that back in shape. I’m not going after federal money to build an outlet store when Kmart has gone out of business across the street. And the churches are astonishingly beautiful, and I even thought they should have church tours and include the Central Terminal. And I thought I could persuade Corning to put a little place in the Central Terminal and blow glass for people. They didn’t say no. And I talked to the art gallery director suggesting he could use some space over there.”
