BUFFALO, N.Y. — In less than 24 hours, James Sandoro crossed two hurdles that move him closer to a long-planned expansion of the Buffalo Transportation Pierce-Arrow Museum.
The Buffalo Planning Board on Feb. 7 backed his request to purchase portions of Carroll Street and Frank Lloyd Wright Way from the city. The approval will lead to the project’s first phase, which is expected to cost $5 million. A day later, the Buffalo Common Council supported the sale, with Sandoro agreeing to pay a negotiated price of $151,000.
The three streets will be converted into an outdoor special event and exhibition space that will connect three buildings – the museum at 263 Michigan Ave., another at 186 Exchange St. and the former Ethox Medical Inc. building at 251 Seneca St.
