Parkside: Down by the Park

Frederick Law Olmsted’s Buffalo work didn’t end with the extensive system of parks and parkways he created here. The legendary landscape architect went a step further and designed an entire neighborhood just east of Delaware Park, Parkside. Indeed, the neighborhood’s tree-lined, curving streets and stately homes provide a pleasant, park-like appeal. Parkside is best known as the home of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Darwin Martin House Complex and the Buffalo Zoo. After strolling through this classic American neighborhood and enjoying its cultural attractions, stop in at JAM Parkside for a cup of coffee or lunch at the Parkside Meadow, followed by dessert at Fairy Cakes Cupcakery.
