The fight to fully restore Humboldt Parkway has been recognized by groups including the local Partnership for the Public Good coalition of over 400 community groups in WNY, the statewide Preservation League of New York’s Seven to Save for 2025 and 2026, as well as Congress for the New Urbanism’s Freeways Without Futures campaigns among others.
