Canalside

The reflection of silos on water and use of galvanized steel pay homage to our industrial heritage here in Buffalo, New York. Canalside exemplifies the resurgence underway in our city: Its historic character is harnessed and transformed into a pedestrian destination for urban lifestyle. This revitalized place truly celebrates our country’s innovation in architecture, engineering, and manufacturing as one of Buffalo’s most lively destinations.

As the warm weather arrives, we are surrounded once again by the greens and blues of the Queen City. Enjoy a summer calendar filled with diverse activities at Canalside, along the outer harbor or on our tranquil waters, and happy June from A|r.

Workflow

Here at A|r we operate as a design studio. What does this mean exactly? It means that our multidisciplinary staff comes together as a team to collaborate and develop as a unified whole.

Flex Classrooms
