Yesterday the Buffalo-Niagara tour with @RepJamesClyburn continued at the @NFUGRR. Here we took a deeper look into the critical role Buffalo and Niagara Falls played in the Underground Railroad.

I guess this makes it official! The east and west sides of Niagara County are now connected by a free shuttle. Thank you again to everyone that helped make it a reality. This simple screenshot took years of hard work.

Our vision at the Heritage Center is to inspire visitors to take action for civil and human rights and creating global change that begins in the Niagara Falls community.
Stories of Western New Yorkers relating to this vision are the heart of our Freedom Gallery.

Sara Capen, Chair of Alliance of National Heritage Areas, supports heritage areas because they “honor contributions of Americans & our diverse heritage without adding to any of the federal maintenance costs that are associated with national parks, monuments, & historic sites.”

“National Heritage Areas are lived-in landscapes that tell nationally important stories that honor our nation’s diverse heritage through shared resources, partnerships, and direct community involvement." Read more of @SaraCapen10's testimony here: docs.house.gov/meetings/AP/A…

This past week, workers progressed on installing the #NiagaraRiver ice boom, which helps keep ice away from intakes of Niagara Power Project & @opg’s Sir Adam Beck Generating Station. It also reduces shoreline erosion along the river and damage to docks + buildings on the shore.
