Bird Island Pier Gets Major Upgrade | Buffalo News

Buffalo’s Bird Island Pier is getting a major upgrade after years of ice and storm damage—thanks to a $15.52 million federal investment. Phase one, kicking off this week, focuses on repairing both river and channel sides with stone and concrete blocks, aiming for completion by fall 2026. A second phase, targeting three key river-side sections, is already scheduled for fall 2027. This long-term, big-budget fix ensures the pier stays functional and safe for years to come.
