In Buffalo, New York, the bars close at 4:00am. On weekends, the busiest time of the night is usually from midnight until closing. I took some photos in two neighborhoods during what would normally be their busiest time of the week.
These pictures were taken a few days after all bars and restaurants were mandated to be “carryout only.” Two days after these pictures, Andrew Cuomo’s broader “no traveling” edict would go into effect.
