An aerial view looks over Buffalo's waterfront dock area toward downtown. Ships are tied along the harbor, with warehouses and rail yards filling the working waterfront and the city skyline rising beyond. Buffalo's position at the eastern end of Lake Erie made it a busy Great Lakes port and rail gateway, and the scene shows harbor activity and the downtown core in one frame.
