About West Side
West Side, located between Downtown Buffalo and the Niagara River, is a historic and residential Buffalo neighborhood with a porch-lined streetscape and a lake-breeze edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Connecticut Street near 5 Points, where corner taverns, small galleries, and long-running eateries share the sidewalks with everyday storefronts. Elmwood Avenue’s West Side stretch frames blocks of restored Victorians and compact apartment buildings, while side streets keep a quieter, stoop-and-garden rhythm. Community touchstones include the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Kleinhans Music Hall, and the West Side Bazaar. Broderick Park and the nearby waterfront paths add open sky and long walks. Architecture shifts from brick Italianate rows to wood-frame doubles, giving the streets a layered, lived-in look.
