Occupying a strategic position in Buffalo’s smart central business district, the Key Center business center is well placed for doing business in and around the downtown core. The 17-story building is one of downtown Buffalo’s major office premises and shares the area with around 1,100 businesses. It overlooks a well-known city landmark, the Fountain Plaza, and is home to many professional services businesses. Downtown is at the heart of the Buffalo Niagara region, giving businesses access to more than 58,000 skilled workers. Hi-tech IT and telecoms companies and financial institutions appreciate its advantageous situation along a North American fiber optic network. The biggest private employers include commercial banks, several health/healthcare organizations and the local newspaper. Conveniently for international firms, or those trading further afield, Buffalo Niagara International Airport can be reached within 15 minutes and the Peace Bridge to Canada is 2.5 miles away.
