WNY WOMEN
A For the first time, we’ve gathered a list of ten women who could be considered among WNY’s most influential, and asked them about their hopes and dreams for the region and how they plan to make them happen. We also asked some of the area’s top businesswomen for their success stories, including a group who are behind some of Elmwood’s hottest boutiques.

HOT ON ELMWOOD
Over the past few decades the trajectory of success in the Elmwood Village neighborhood has gone nowhere but up as new businesses have flocked to the area and housing demand and values have remained consistently high. Let’s face it, this is our downtown shopping district, as well as a popular spot for families and cultural activity. In a series of interviews with key Elmwood players, Spree writers examine how this success story came to be and how it will continue to play a major rule in Buffalo’s future viability. We also present a series of vignettes—both visual and verbal—of Elmwood Village life. (For a survey of some of Elmwood’s businesswomen, see the WNY WOMEN section.)
