The Delaware-West Ferry neighborhood of Buffalo features beautifully renovated high-rise apartments, as well as gracious, single-family homes on tree-lined streets. Its central location, with SUNY Buffalo just to the northwest and downtown Buffalo just over a mile south, makes it easy to get to work.
The 350 acres of Delaware Park anchors the Delaware-West Ferry neighborhood, and residents gather there for ice skating in the winter and sports ranging from golf to rugby in the summer. Summer concerts and Shakespeare in the Park also sit within easy walking distance from apartments and condos for rent. After a day at the park, stroll down Elmwood Avenue to choose between dozens of popular restaurants, or head to Hutch's for its amazing jambalaya pasta.
