    Centered on Buffalo’s downtown core and waterfront, 14202 blends historic character with urban energy. Art deco Buffalo City Hall and the cobblestone blocks near the water frame walkable streets leading to Erie Basin Marina, lakefront paths, and seasonal happenings at nearby Canalside. Expect four true seasons—snowy, breezy winters and sunny, festival-filled summers—plus an arts-forward culture anchored by the Theater District, galleries, and live music. Daily life is convenient: SPoT Coffee on Delaware fuels mornings; Pearl Street Grill & Brewery and Bacchus headline the dining scene; local gyms and yoga studios cluster along Main and Chippewa; and pocket parks like Niagara Square and Johnson Park offer green breaks, with corner markets and boutiques close by and Elmwood Village shops a quick ride away. Zillow Market Trends in recent months show a median rent around $1,650, with most listings roughly $1,200–$2,500/month. Pet friendly and commuter friendly, the area is served by Metro Rail and quick access to I-190 and Route 33.
