Buffalo, NY – A simulation program from UB is helping move plans for a Erie Canal Harbor bridge closer to reality.

The computer simulation that gives a 3D view of the waterfront neighborhoods was actually introduced to the public last year. But now officials with the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corporation are hoping waterfront residents and visitors will take a closer look.

Specifically, ECHDC officials want feedback on the proposed bridge that would connect the inner and outer harbors.
