                       BUFFALO'S CENTRAL TERMINAL

  (Mr. HIGGINS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. HIGGINS. Mr. Speaker, Buffalo will select a new site for a train 
station in the next several months and will build a new passenger train 
terminal in the next 2 years. This offers an opportunity to remake 
Buffalo's storied Central Terminal.
  Selection of the Central Terminal will be a catalyst for the 
redevelopment of the city's Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood, improve 
destination choice, and will represent the next exciting iteration of 
what is possible in the new Buffalo.
  This is not simply about building a new train station. Selection of 
the Central Terminal is a bold statement of confidence and commitment 
by a city of limitless potential and possibility.
