PearlHowardman Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 Is this a part of the "Buffalo Billions"?

Quote Just south of downtown Buffalo, near abandoned factories and crumbling brick warehouses, is a 1.2-million-square-foot white box with Tesla Inc.’s solar panel factory inside. The state of New York paid $750 million to fund this place, based on a commitment to create nearly 1,500 jobs here. On a Tuesday morning in mid-November, a group of two dozen of these workers is monitoring several rows of robots that are stamping out materials for the Solar Roof, a new kind of solar panel that Tesla Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk is very excited about. Or was, anyway.
Nanker Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 So, 1,500 - 24 = 1,476... That's pretty close if you're the goobernor.
Buffalo_Gal Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 If this is all to get UB kids from Main street to North campus what suddenly made the buses that currently run down Millersport inadequate? They want to bring this into Audubon? Well, there is plenty of open land there (is it buildable or swamp?), but then what? Crosspoint (which is huge) starts complaining? Where does it end? There is only so much money available. And the plan is now aboveground via NFB which is a total zoo at the best of times? SMH Meanwhile, Main Street heading toward Clarence can't handle the daily car traffic and people keep moving further and further out.
