Elmwood development will help already promising area
EDITOR IN CHIEF Aaron Mansfield MANAGING EDITORS Lisa Khoury Sara DiNatale OPINION EDITOR Anthony Hilbert
Major hotel, multi-use development takes major step toward reality
COPY EDITORS Tress Klassen, Chief Amanda Jowsey Samaya Abdus-Salaam
Local pride and protectiveness rarely coalesce as they do around the Elmwood neighborhood downtown, as a recently decided court case revealed. A legal judgment giving a significant boost to a proposed plan for a hotel and mixed-use development downtown on the corner of Elmwood and Forest Avenues came down Friday. The plan is for a mammoth new building, including hotel rooms, retail space, restaurants and an indoor parking garage. The planned development, however, has been met with controversy as those protective of the Elmwood neighborhood have blasted the proposal as a bane to the area’s character. But for anyone who frequents the area, it is clear there is a need for more accommodations, parking and commercial ventures to see Elmwood flourish. The neighborhood is doubtlessly precious to the city – a gem for locals and visiting tourists with a slew of locally owned

establishments that capture the rich history and diversity of this city. That is exactly why such a development should be lauded. The legal challenge came from owners of six properties in or adjacent to the area being slated for the development. The property owners in the case were fighting for the enforcement of restrictive deed covenants – legal land-use promises to how a property can and will be used – dating back to 1892. If they would have been upheld by the judge, the over 120-year-old restrictions would have prevented such intense commercial development. State Supreme Court Justice John A. Michalek ruled that the covenants in question were extinguished on the property of the development company, Chason Affinity Cos. Though the property owners’ attorney has vowed appeal, the case pushes the planned development – origi-
nally proposed in 2009 – another step further. Clearly those involved in the case were more interested in the nature of Elmwood development than in preserving severely dated legal promises. Legally, the ruling is reasonable, as the restrictions placed on those properties long ago clearly don’t align with modern realities. More significantly, the case captured the debate on how local and traditional the development of this area should be. What has been lost on some, though, are the benefits such a proposed building will have. Both reasonable and needed, the hotel and mixed-use space fills a void in an increasingly attractive neighborhood in a city trying to reestablish itself. As Michalek stated during the case, the pride the property owners have in protecting and preserving their neighborhood deserves respect. People fighting for the best of their communi-
ty are admirable and impressive. But romantic feelings for traditionalism and small, local business only go so far. The Elmwood neighborhood where this hotel and associated establishments are proposed is often a lively, bustling part of downtown, attracting suburbanites, students and tourists. Tight parking and lack of nearby accommodations for those wishing to stay the night, however, are deficiencies that need addressing, particularly as the area expands in popularity. Though we should remain protective of the general character of the neighborhood, this development does not kick the area down a slippery slope to corporate commercialization – it meets a need. The hotel, parking garage and other spaces will help the continued growth and expansion of an area Buffalonians are right to take pride in. email: editorial@ubspectrum.com

Encouraging the most engaging and exhilarating gameplay and caring for the health and well being of players in hockey are not mutually exclusive. The NHL has actively promoted and allowed an excessively violent game over decades, according to a class action complaint filed against the league by a slew of former players last week. The action explicitly charges the NHL fostered and promoted “a culture of extreme violence and packaged the spoils to adoring fans.” The complaint is a direct blow to the league, but it will undoubtedly suffer far less than its exploited athletes – if it suffers at all. The lawsuit was initially brought by nine aging players all claiming the NHL misled them or withheld information on the game’s violence while it “intentionally created” excessively violent gameplay, knowing head trauma to the player was “imminent.” Certainly the violence involved in hockey is no mystery, particularly to players. That said, despite the reasonable assumption that players knew the game would be violent, the league should have provided access to information, medical and other-
Letter to the Editor We are writing to you in response to your article in the March 26 edition of The Spectrum, “UB Emphasizes Importance of Evacuating Dorm Rooms During Fire Drills.” Though we would like to thank you for printing an article on such an important and lifesaving topic, we feel there are a few statements in the printed article that will be easily misinterpreted by your readers. We would like the opportunity to clarify some of the information and help the reader understand more completely the operation of fire alarms. The Office of Environment Health & Safety is required by the fire code to run four mandatory fire drills per year in the dorm buildings. All alarm activations above that number means the building alarm was activated for a reason. Your article used the phrase “false alarms.” There are very few “false alarms” on campus. When there is an alarm activation, most often the activation is caused by occcupant
actions. These are not “false” alarms, but alarms working as designed. It is possible that readers of your article could interpret the words “false alarm” to mean the building fire system is malfunctioning. This is proven not to be the case for almost all building alarm activations at UB. When the building alarm activates, it means it was activated for a reason and that the alarms are working properly and are doing exactly what they are supposed to do. A fire alarm is composed of many components; the most common one is smoke detectors. When an alarm system is activated by a smoke detector, it visually monitors particles in the air, and when it detects an elevated presence of particles, it sends a signal to the alarm panel to activate the building fire alarm. When responders arrive, they can easily tell where the incident is by looking at the fire panel. As they are locating the location of the emergency, the building occupants need to im-
wise. Though the connection between an intense, fast-paced contact sport and violence is clear, the link between those fights and head trauma or depression that have plagued so many athletes for years was more opaque until recently. The lawsuit is hardly unprecedented. It follows several similar cases against the NHL, including the distressing wrongful death suit of Derek Boogaard, who died of an overdose after suffering from trauma and brain damage tied to his role as an enforcer in the league. Recent cases against the NFL have brought mainstream attention to the detrimental, long-term impact of athletic violence on players long after they step off the field. The problems begin with our own myopia to those plights. The depression and trauma that too often follow our athletic icons after their tenure have remained private battles fought largely outside the public eye. And though respectful privacy remains tantamount, appreciation and attention to the issues at large are overdue. As the case suggests, we the public are the “adoring fans” to which these fights are being “packaged.”
mediately exit the building using the closest stairwell and remain outside of the building until told it is safe to return to their rooms by the hall director, the University Police Department or emergency responders on scene. Alarm activations from smoke resulting from inattentive cooking is the leading cause of alarm activations on Campus (at least half). Many of these activations could be prevented if students would not leave their kitchen area when cooking and not leave food items unattended, especially when using the microwave. If smoke does occur while cooking, students need to open a window to air out the smoke from the room. The building alarm system will activate as it is intended to do, and students should leave the building. Cooking is the leading cause of fires in America. In addition, students need to be aware that steam from showers can also activate the alarm, as well as aerosols (hair spray, concentrated room fresheners) being sprayed too closely to the detector. Tampering with the building fire safety devices such as the fire
The NHL itself is likewise in need of a change in perspective – and policy. Bill Daly, the NHL deputy commissioner, has taken off the gloves, brandishing legal fists against the charges. Daly released a statement vowing to “vigorously” defend the league against this and other cases, seeing “no valid basis for liability or damages.” If he so vigorously fought for even a reasonable amount of safety for the players of his league, these charges likely would have never been filed. Undeniably, hockey is a fast, powerful game. With padded goliaths racing across an ice rink on steel blades wielding wooden sticks, the likelihood of some contact – some of that yielding injuries – is assured. How the NHL has dealt with this reality, and allegedly worsened it, is what’s at stake. The lawsuit claims, “Through enclosed rinks and lax rules for fighting,” the league fostered such deplorable and detrimental violence. The fighting is a particularly controversial issue. The NHL is unique in its allowance, if not promotion, of physical fights on the ice. Collegiate, European and internation-
extinguishers and pull stations can also cause activations. We feel it is important to note that each individual life-saving device on campus (heat detector, smoke detector, pull station) is tested once a year to ensure they are working properly. This 6-7 month process to test these devices in each room and in every building on campus is performed every year. Environment Health & Safety Fire Life Safety Division runs many educational programs throughout the year, and our main goal is to educate students on the importance of safe living. At our campus events, we educate students on the dangers of inattentive cooking and also address other reasons building fire alarms are activated on campus. We hold closely supervised bedroom burns and kitchen burns typically twice a year to send the message on how quickly fire can spread and the dangers of ignoring smoke detector devices. The article states that “only .02% of alarms are in response to an actual fire.” We would like
al hockey have much more stringent rules on fighting during the game. Fighting results in game disqualification in college and it is strictly prohibited in the latter two leagues. That the NHL would so brazenly run afoul of international norms in regard to fighting furthers the case for banning fighting in games. For those who love hockey, or any contact sport, our passion should extend further than foam fingers or branded t-shirts – a level of empathy for those playing is necessary. For the league, anything less than eliminating fighting and working more actively in the best interest of players is reprehensible. These two actions, however, are far from separate. Changes will be made when the public decries this violence, irrespective of the forthcoming court ruling (or more likely out-of-court settlement). It has yet to be seen how adamantly hockey fans will watch this legal fight unfold, though it will surely be a game-changer – for the long-term health of our athletic heroes or the pocketbooks of the league. email: editorial@ubspectrum.com
to address this statement. It is our opinion that this is not accurate, as every alarm is in response to an activation caused by a safety rule not being followed. It is our opinion that just because a fire does not occur with each fire alarm activation, that does not mean the situation was not serious. Most all campus fire alarm activations could be avoided by practicing safe living instructions. Every alarm needs to be taken seriously. The Office of Environment Health & Safety has a community service program in place and is happy that students are reprimanded for not leaving their building during a fire alarm activation and/or for tampering with fire safety devices. We take these actions seriously and work with students to increase their knowledge of fire safety and enhance their perception of fire safety practices, both on campus and off campus.
