Silo City is a little hard to describe. Located in the heart of Buffalo's historic grain elevator district, it's an ecological experiment in regeneration and art. They have been working to remediate and rewild the grounds while preserving the industrial remains of Buffalo's past. Silo City is an important venue in the Buffalo arts scene and has a number of events throughout the year, from outdoor avant garde theater to live music in old grain elevators. This place is incredibly photogenic, and during the summer, you will see people wandering around the grounds exploring with their cameras. During the off season, the only open part of the property is the restaurant and bar, Duende, which is definitely worth checking out.

Lately, you can't visit Buffalo without getting on the water. If you need to rent a Kayak, Elevator Alley is a great option. They're right down near the grain elevators, which is a favorite spot to get on the water and paddle around the remains of Buffalo's industrial past. You will likely see some wildlife - mostly various birds and deer. The water is not super clean - this is more of an industrial site-seeing paddle.
