Silo City is a design for the reuse of the largest collection of grain elevators in the world. The vision transforms this 1,000,000 SF site into an arts and cultural campus on the Buffalo River. Silo City tells the extraordinary story of the grain elevators and their role in history, industry, arts, and architecture. It will support both grass roots and internationally renowned institutions and artists, and is supported by sustainable development including commercial, residential and hospitality that grow out of the themes, architecture, and history of this site.
