Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) - Assemblyman Bill Conrad has announced a $50,000 grant for the Buffalo History Museum. The grant offsets expenses from the museum's sponsorship of local competitions associated with National History Day.

A new Cambria Hotel is planned to open in Niagara Falls later this month, per Buffalo Business First. Located at 311 Rainbow Blvd., the 120-room hotel is the first new hotel to open in Niagara Falls since 2018.

Gas prices remained steady over the last week, staying put at $3.30 per gallon in Buffalo. The national average of gas rose though since last Monday, up 5 cents at $3.40 per gallon.

Nominations are open for the 2024 Business Ethics Awards. If there's a business you've interacted with that has an outstanding culture you can nominate them at www.BuffaloBusinessEthics.org. The deadline for nominations is March 29th.
