Welcome to Working For Downtown from President Sarah L. Couch, Ellicott Development Company

Working For Downtown is a volunteer civic organization committed to improving the quality of life for those living and working in downtown Buffalo. We promote communication between our members and some of the most dynamic and productive people in our community while fostering a sense of pride in the core business and residential area of our city. Working For Downtown is committed to promote and assist in the cultural, commercial, residential, and aesthetic improvement of downtown Buffalo.

Weekly Networking

Working for Downtown promotes and organizes many activities to keep you in touch with the latest developments in the downtown area. One of the most popular has been our weekly event Thursdays in the City which this year is at The Stillwater at 439 Delaware Avenue- 5:00 ? 8:00pm. Try it for some lively conversation and sample The Stillwater?s wonderful cuisine.
