BUFFALO, N.Y. — A new downtown music and entertainment venue inside the DL&W Terminal is expected to have a spinoff impact on neighboring bars, restaurants and other Canalside or downtown destinations.

“A new attraction like that is good for everyone,” said Steve Ranalli, Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. president.

Sam Savarino, Savarino Cos. president, wants to turn a portion of the DL&W’s second floor — including a 40,000-square-foot outdoor deck overlooking the Buffalo River — into a live music/entertainment venue. The concert hall is part of Savarino’s development plans for the 100,000-square-foot second story of the DL&W Terminal.
