Plans for Central Terminal hinge on residents as much as rail traffic

The project has two main parts: reusing the Central Terminal, as well as building row houses and lofts in the area around the terminal tentatively called Buffalo Central.
The station's 17-story tower would be used for commercial office space. The four-story baggage building would become a 179-room hotel. And the concourse would feature entertainment/event spaces, for weddings, receptions, trade shows, parties and other large gatherings. Retail stores and restaurants, including the recreation of an art deco restaurant, would be part of the mix.
Stinson's plan also calls for a transportation hub for trains, buses, vehicles and taxis. A shuttle service would connect people to downtown, the medical corridor and the airport.
