You Spoke, We Listened

Over the past few months, we asked you to tell us what temporary uses could happen at the Buffalo and Club Café Site (5021 Ross Street). After reviewing all the feedback and ideas submitted, we are happy to announce that this space is now bookable community event space.

If your group is interested in hosting your next community event on this site, apply for a Special Event Permit here.
