Fruit Belt

Community Center

Location: This Buffalo neighborhood centers on High Street, with the "33" (Kensington Expressway) enclosing the southern boundary of the Fruit Belt. Jefferson Avenue runs along the East Side, but it is Grape, Peach, Orange, and Lemon Streets that gave the name to the district.

Gethsemane Grape Street Baptist Church (55 Grape Street) serves this African-American community.

The Futures Academy, Buffalo PS No.37 (295 Carlton), is part of this progressive East Side neighborhood.

Mural located on the Moot Senior Citizen Center (76 Orange Street).
