Community leaders in Canaseraga and the town of Burns are looking to revitalize their hometown with the help of some ideas put forth by Alfred State College architecture students.
Last year, students in Professor William Dean’s Urban Design Studio class “expanded upon Canaseraga’s comprehensive plan, presenting a vision of revitalizing the historic district, improving the streetscape, proposing new businesses, and creating civic spaces to give the village a clear identity more closely tied to the surrounding recreational areas,” according to an article by The Spectator.
The article also notes that this “planning work has provided a foundation as community leaders seek revitalization funding.”
