West Side Community Collaborative

As part of my Colloquim project serice-learning activity (wow, that's a mouthful), I was passive aggressively told that I "should try to attend" a meeting of the West Side Community Collaorative in Buffalo. It started at the exact time I got out of class, and it takes roughly a half hour (50% of which is spent at traffic lights) to get there, but I went anyway.

On the way home, though, (one way streets strike again!) I found a castle. About 100 meters down the street from the community center above, I encountered this:

and pretty much stopped the car and stared until someone came down the street behind me. Which is when I pulled over, got out, and continued to gawk and take pictures.

It was like someone decided to drop Redwall in the middle of a somewhat sketchy area of Buffalo!
