Project Overview 

With a targeted grand opening in early 2022, Neighborhood Health Center | Riverway will provide an immediate quality and affordable primary care home to thousands of area residents who are actively seeking access to care. The new 26,000 square foot office will be joining the two already established Neighborhood Health Center city offices – Neighborhood Health Center | Mattina and Neighborhood Health Center | Northwest, and will be located at 1569 Niagara Street, Buffalo, NY 14213 (the corner of Niagara Street and Forest Avenue and directly adjacent to the Niagara River).

In addition to opening Neighborhood Health Center | Riverway for primary care, this office will have expanded integrated services, such as behavioral health and nutritional care.  

The design for Riverway will provide two distinct components: 

• Patient Services Center & Administration Office Space: Providing the practice’s full complement of services including Internal/Family Medicine, OB-GYN, Pediatrics, Dentistry, Behavioral Health, Nutritional Counseling, Podiatry and Pharmacy Services. The office will also operate as an additional anchor administrative office.
• Garden-Level Community Wellness Center: Potential for a community wellness center which will include space for a community demonstration kitchen and fitness center on-site.
