Buffalo

Lake Erie city

Buffalo is a city in western New York State, situated on Lake Erie near Niagara Falls.

Once a major hub for steel and grain, it remains significant for its architecture, including buildings by Frank Lloyd Wright.

Buffalo wings—deep-fried chicken wings with hot sauce—originated there in 1964. (Lowercase buffalo is the animal or verb.)
