Slaughter Gives $472K to Broadway Fillmore Corridor"},"content":{"rendered":"

Rep. Louise M. Slaughter, D-Fairport, was bearing gifts when she visited the East Side of Buffalo on Monday. <\/p>\n

The congresswoman secured $1.77 million in federal funds for five projects ranging from infrastructure improvements and arts education to a variety of community and economic revitalization efforts.<\/p>\n

Slaughter\u00a0provided $472,000 for the Broadway-Fillmore Corridor Revitalization Project, which plans to demolish 40 to 50 abandoned buildings to make way for new housing. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a major, major piece in our efforts to revitalize the Broadway-Fillmore area. If you\u2019re going to be building new homes, it\u2019s hard to ask people to work, live and play with derelict homes around them,\u201d said Marlies A. Wesolowski, executive director of the Matt Urban Center at 1081 Broadway. <\/p>\n

The center\u2019s community development corporation is spearheading a project to build new market-rate homes, while revitalizing existing homes and making housing available for low-income buyers \u2013 all centered around a 16-block area bordered by Broadway, Walden Avenue, Loepere Street and Rother Avenue.<\/p>\n
