About Us
The Buffalo Legacy Trail is a living tribute to the athletes, teams, moments, and fans that have shaped the rich sports history of Western New York.
Located at Alumni Park in Hamburg, New York, across from the new Buffalo football stadium, the Trail is being created as a permanent place where generations of fans can celebrate the people and memories that have united our community for decades.
The Trail begins with something that has always been at the heart of Buffalo sports—the numbers.
Each section of the Buffalo Legacy Trail honors the iconic jersey numbers that have become part of our region’s identity. From Hall of Famers and champions to hometown heroes and unforgettable fan favorites, the Trail celebrates the athletes whose accomplishments inspired generations.
But this is only the beginning.
Over time, the Buffalo Legacy Trail will evolve into a broader celebration of Buffalo sports history. Fans will help identify and vote on the greatest moments, greatest achievements, and most memorable stories in Buffalo sports, creating a living outdoor museum that continues to grow with each passing year.
The Trail will also provide fans with a unique opportunity to become part of that history themselves.
Through commemorative bricks, family tributes, sponsorships, and special recognition opportunities, fans can leave a permanent mark that future generations will discover as they walk the Trail.
Because Buffalo’s sports legacy was never built by athletes alone.
It was built by the generations of fans who filled the stadiums, packed the arenas, stood through the snow, celebrated the victories, endured the heartbreak, and passed their passion on to their children and grandchildren.
The Buffalo Legacy Trail exists to honor all of them.
As the Trail grows, it will tell the story of Buffalo sports through its greatest numbers, its greatest moments, and most importantly, the people who made it all possible.
This is more than a walkway.
It is a place where Buffalo’s past, present, and future come together.
A place where legends are remembered.
Moments are celebrated.
And fans become part of history forever.
