The Lafayette Apartments brighten up a once dark and dreary block on the City’s upper West Side, transforming a local eyesore into a contributing neighborhood asset. A dense residential neighborhood surrounds the apartment building, just a few short blocks from the vibrant Grant Street commercial district. Only a few blocks away you will find specialty markets and bakeries that sit between video stores, laundromats, and pizza shops, surrounding the bustling intersection of Grant and West Ferry Streets. The Niagara Street thoroughfare is a half-mile to the west, connecting the I-190 South towards Downtown, or to the Peace Bridge into Canada. The Lafayette Apartments are located one mile to the South of Buffalo State College and 1.5 miles north of D’Youville College. Both Niagara and Grant Streets are located on major metro bus routes for convenient travel anywhere in the city and surrounding suburbs.
