About the Green Development Zone

In 2008, PUSH Buffalo established the Green Development Zone (GDZ) – a 25-square block area on Buffalo’s West Side that is the hub of PUSH’s programming and the heart of our community-driven work.

Our work in the GDZ encompasses green affordable housing construction, community-based renewable energy projects, housing weatherization, green jobs training, green infrastructure, and vacant land restoration projects, to name a few.

Join us for a tour to see for yourself!
