Bury This Big Mistake

This article (“Bury This Big Mistake,” Artvoice v9n9) I found very intriguing as a Dutch-American woman born in the city of Utrecht, the Netherlands. I emigrated in 1954 after having lived in that 250,000+ city for 16 years. This city has the usual multitude of canals (or called “grachten or singels”) just like many major Dutch cities, such as Amsterdam. These “singels” as they are called in Utrecht were dug hundreds of years ago to facilitate trade.

Before the Canal Side Development Project is approved, it is critical for the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corporation (ECHDC) to ensure that the massive public investment in the project will be spent in a way that benefits the communities of Buffalo and the region.
