Exciting new approach to investing federal dollars into communities that need it the most. We are thrilled to be one of only four entities in the Great Lakes basin to be selected to do this work!

Designing with nature. So cool to see our Cayuga Creek wetland restoration project in action, real-time....More of these kinds of projects on the horizon!

Wow! Buffalo Business First awards our collaborative and innovative Ohio Street Blueway project a 2022 "Brick by Brick" award in the infrastructure category. Not bad for a non-profit organization...and great job by our PM Katherine Winkler, our consultant partners, and the entire Waterkeeper team!

A bird's eye view of our nearly completed Cayuga Creek floodplain and wetland restoration project in Niagara County. Another hidden gem - envisioned and executed by our dedicated Waterkeeper team over 8+ years. This 25-acre site will help alleviate flooding for a nearby mobile home community, improve habitat and provide a recreational resource. Great work Emily Root and BNW Team! https://lnkd.in/gAXh3Q8P

Did you know that Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper also constructs major infrastructure projects? Non-profits are changemakers too. Seen here, a new culvert placement in our headwaters, protecting and connecting native brook trout and their pristine habitat. Our team continues to pump millions of dollars into the blue economy, employ local workers, and improve water quality and the environment at the same time! #blueeconomy #headwaters

Another successful project in the ground, with the grand re-opening of Red Jacket Park and our Buffalo Blueway access improvements! Fantastic partners in Erie County and NYS ESD. Collaborative effort as always - and latest example of how nonprofits can be changemakers and continue to spark economic investment in our waterfront.https://lnkd.in/gRmc3rnR
