Expansion<br />

K-TECHnologies, Inc. will implement a<br />

project to provide employees with pertinent<br />

industry certifications. Individuals will be<br />

trained in areas such as: J-STD; IPC; Six<br />

Sigma; LEAN Manufacturing; blueprint<br />

reading; leadership development; and<br />

Microsoft Office.<br />

The project will recreate Frank Lloyd<br />

Wright’s designs for multiple landscape<br />

elements and gardens/site treatments<br />

throughout the 1.5 acre Darwin Martin<br />

House historic site in Buffalo. It will<br />

also support the completion of built-in<br />

furnishings, unique paint finishes and<br />

custom woodwork on the second floor of<br />

the 15,000 square foot house.<br />

The project restores four buildings and<br />

includes in-fill development resulting<br />

in commercial and cultural space, and<br />

a restaurant and offices. This building<br />

restoration project is located in the Michigan<br />

Street African American Corridor, a focal<br />

point for residents and visitors interested in<br />

learning about Buffalo’s rich history through<br />

its shops, restaurants, historical markers,<br />

unique architecture and people.<br />

The project will move the existing light<br />

rail track to the front of the NFTA-Metro’s<br />

Rail Yards and Shops Facility at the foot of<br />

Main Street. This will allow for the return<br />

of two-way traffic to Main Street; the<br />

installation of additional on-street parking,<br />

street furnishings and crosswalks; and<br />

improved paving and the redevelopment<br />

of the DLW Terminal.<br />

NYSARC Inc. Erie County Chapter<br />

seeks to cultivate its existing workforce,<br />

improve worker retention, and encourage<br />

career advancement through training IT<br />

technicians, direct support providers, and<br />

quality compliance staff.<br />

Roswell Park’s Center for Immunotherapy<br />

(CFI) development project enhances the<br />

infrastructure of the CFI and supports<br />

WNY’s ability to deliver world-class<br />

cancer care. It will also cultivate a rich<br />

R&D environment for biotech companies;<br />

promote entrepreneurial activities; serve<br />

as a stimulus for investment by the<br />

pharmaceutical industry and help to sustain<br />

long-term economic development in health<br />

and life sciences in WNY.<br />

This project will work to increase bike<br />

tourism in Buffalo and Western New<br />

York. The funds will be used to develop<br />

a marketing and branding theme,<br />

and implementation to promote more<br />

participants from around the region to<br />

come to the many biking events.<br />

Springville Center for the Arts will hire a<br />

new Programming Director to capitalize<br />

on the recent expansions and renovations<br />

to the multi-arts center. The position will<br />

allow expanded programming to occur at<br />

both the main facility and the new project<br />

at 5 East Main Street.<br />
