Wonderful highlight on one of the most giving, devoted people in Buffalo. In many situations I ask myself, WWHD- What Would Harvey Do?

Hes exactly what Buffalo needs. Great Job!

Through involvement in preservation in Buffalo, I've been fortunate to know Harvey and see him in operation. Harvey is an extremely capable person, but perhaps his finest attribute is his gifted knack for close collaboration with others, involving others, and bringing them along in the process - whatever he happens to be working on. This trait is unfortunately - but perhaps understandably - rare in activists who are by nature creatures of individual initiative. It has served him - and the community - well in his work with WSCC, which was formed to overcome shortcomings in collaboration on West Side revitalization. It also allowed Harvey to play a key role in the recent consolidation of two local preservation organizations.

Communities like ours would be well served if more stakeholders and leaders of all kinds and at all levels learned and practiced Harvey's brand of collaborative activism and organizational intelligence.

BTW, don't tell Harvey I said this, but I think he helped consolidate the Landmark Society and Preservation Coalition so that he'd have one fewer board meeting to attend!

listening to certain people you would be led to the conclusion that community organizers were fodder for ridicule.

Good going Harvey!

An informal study of the parking ramp (operated by the city) done a couple years ago found that at 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon, there were 200 unused parking stalls in the ramp.
