The Buffalo News reports on how developer Howard Milstein, who held onto a Times Square property for 20 years before selling it for allegedly 65 times the original price, is doing something similar in Niagara Falls–well, except for making such a hefty profit.

“Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles could tell there’s nothing going on there,” one disillusioned Niagara Falls City Council member said.
