Matt, that corner brings back many fond memories of the past.

[pardon my zamboni]

Which neighborhood is that and what kind of action can you see?

[Buck Rohde]

Timon St. is on the East side of Buffalo and runs between Northhampton and High Sts. East High school is only a few blocks away but being White, I wouldn't walk around there unless I was packing heat. My friend, Matt lives on Timon and says it is pretty quiet there even though it is mostly Black now.

If you are looking for action, I would suggest Elmwood between Allen St. and Chippwea or maybe Genesee between Jefferson and Bailey.

No it's not! Timon St. is near the old War Memorial Stadium site and East High School is on Fougeron St. about a mile away and east of MLK Park.

Timon intersects Best St. where the stadium is and at one time they had races there when it was called the Civic Stadium. East high is on Northhampton St.

I remember my father paying neighbors on Dodge Street a dollar to park on their lawns during Bills and Bison games at the Old Rock Pile
