Buffalo’s Humboldt Parkway: Community fights for green space

Buffalo’s Humboldt Parkway just landed on New York’s Seven to Save list, spotlighting how much locals want to reclaim their historic green boulevard. The community is pushing back against state highway plans, demanding a return to Olmsted’s vision—a parkway that connects neighborhoods and puts people’s health first. With support from preservationists and grassroots groups, residents are calling for unity and real input in the redesign. Imagine if the city could finally replace concrete with trees, parks, and safe spaces for everyone. What do you think: Should Buffalo prioritize health and history over more highways? #Transportation #Buffalo #HumboldtParkway
