Senior Care in Lackawanna, NY

A historic Erie County steel city on the Lake Erie shoreline, directly south of Buffalo.

Lackawanna grew up around the Lackawanna Steel Company plant (later Bethlehem Steel), which for much of the 20th century was one of the largest steel-producing complexes in the world and drew waves of immigrant labor from Poland, Italy, Yemen, and beyond to work its mills. The Bethlehem plant closed its steelmaking operations in the early 1980s, and part of that former industrial waterfront is now home to Steel Winds, a wind-turbine energy project built on the old brownfield site. The city also holds a genuine landmark in Our Lady of Victory Basilica and National Shrine, a striking domed church built by Father Nelson Baker in the 1920s and still one of the most visited religious sites in Western New York.

Lackawanna is a compact city, bordered by Buffalo to the north, West Seneca to the east, and Hamburg to the south, and most Lackawanna families end up drawing from the same pool of nearby communities in those neighboring towns rather than a facility with a Lackawanna street address itself.
