Transport yourself back in time to an area where classic homes and perfectly planted gardens were the order of the day. The Parkside Garden Tour is a self-guided tour of the impressive Parkside neighborhood that features over 50 gorgeous gardens. Parkside is an area of Buffalo that was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and has the distinction of being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition to the stunning gardens, you'll also get to view various 19th century homes along the tour route.
There's something truly charming about visiting an Irish pub, and Eddie Brady's Tavern is a textbook example of such a place. This friendly watering hole recalls an early 20th century pub, complete with worn brick walls and a tin ceiling. But the clientele and mood of this nightlife venue will warm you up quickly, as will the delectable fare from the kitchen that includes excellent burgers and their signature fried bologna. Wash it down with one of the many fine ales available at the bar, and enjoy!
One of the city's most triumphant fixtures on the landscape is the Niagara Mohawk Building. The structure's classic design only makes this 294-foot tall skyscraper even more awe-inspiring. Built in 1912, it is still considered to be one of Buffalo's most beautiful sights. Among the attraction's many notable points, the glazed terracotta tower and regal design makes it even more striking when it is lit up among Buffalo's evening skyline.
