Buffalo Spotlight

Charming, historic, entertaining

Re-discover why Buffalo is a great place to live, work and visit.

Buffalo Old Home WeekBuffalo Old Home Week last took place in 1907 during Buffalo’s heyday.  Now, 99 years later, August 24th through 27th, 2006, this remarkable celebration of Buffalo and its many treasures is back! 

It’s Thursday at the Square, “Where Life Works” Career Fair, Happy to Be Back Here Hour, Buffalo Bills Tailgate Party, Images of Buffalo Sunday Brunch, and more.  It’s Buffalo Old Home Week! 

Buffalo has all the ingredients needed to once again be a world class city. Buffalo Old Home Week is designed to maintain the momentum and enhance the renaissance that this city of good neighbors is currently experiencing.  It’s designed to provide dozens of compelling reasons for Expats to move back and for businesses to move Buffalo up to the top of the list of new location, relocation and satellite office options.

The goal of this event is to build upon the efforts of the Buffalo Niagara Partnership, Buffalo Niagara Enterprise, Buffalo Place and countless other organizations with a grassroots effort to turn "Buffalo Expatriates" into "Buffalo Repatriates".  It aims to reposition Buffalo in the minds of expats as a thriving and emerging market that is home to a burgeoning cultural, technical, and economic renaissance.

The potential repat demographic provides the "Four E's" that are absolutely essential to continuing the Buffalo renaissance: Energy, Enthusiasm, Experience and Expertise. These qualities empower the existing populace to see the opportunity all around them and to capitalize on it!
