Join us, rain or shine, for exciting and informational tours of some of the most innovative and relevant projects in Buffalo today. Held in the summer months, our tours are scheduled in the early evening and are designed to encourage exploration of the downtown area and, perhaps, stay after to experience some of the growing local scene of restaurants, bars and other venues.
Tours are free of charge to WFD Members and only $10.00 for non-members. Reservations are required with 5:15 pm check-in and a sharp 5:30 pm tour start time. Most tours are about one hour in length.
