UB has announced plans to build in downtown Buffalo a new home for its Educational Opportunity Center as part of an effort to provide expanded job-skills training and community programming to Buffalo residents. When completed, the four-story EOC building will be connected to the former M. Wile building to form the $46 million UB Downtown Gateway Complex located at 77 Goodell St. A cornerstone of UB’s downtown campus, the gateway complex will provide the Buffalo-Niagara community with greater access to UB’s academic and community programs, strengths and resources toward the goal of enhancing the quality of life in Buffalo and its surrounding communities.
