Be Part of Something BIG
July 16 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Cruise with a View of the Ralph Wilson Park Shoreline
Join the Ralph Wilson Park Conservancy team and partners for an exclusive two-hour boat tour: Witness the breathtaking transformation of Ralph Wilson Park (the former LaSalle Park) from the water and get a sneak peek at Buffalo’s newest signature bridge!
The community driven transformation of Ralph Wilson Park is underway, and a major focus has been building a resilient, beautiful, natural shoreline to replace the deteriorating cement sea wall. Hear directly from the team and see the progress up close from the gorgeous Miss Buffalo II.
For one day only, on 716 day of all days, the four separate pieces that will make up the 260ft long, 220 ton bridge will be visible on two barges at the edge of the park. The Ralph Wilson Park Bridge will then be lifted into the park, welded together, moved across the park and installed across the I-190 this fall.
Join the Ralph Wilson Park team for light appetizers, drinks, and an historic, once-in-a-lifetime, up-close view of the Ralph Wilson Park Bridge! Spend a beautiful night on Buffalo’s waterfront and help Ralph Wilson Park Conservancy keep our family-friendly programming free.
We expect this event to sell out, so buy your tickets here!
