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 />
