Developer David Mazur is moving ahead with a $14 million investment to build the 80-unit Woodstream Landings apartment complex on nearly 10 acres along Sawyer Road in Wheatfield — construction will begin this spring with one-, two- and three-bedroom units.

He is seeking Wheatfield approvals and a tax break from the Niagara County Industrial Development Agency — the project is expected to be move-in ready in 12 to 24 months.

Josh Allen joked about his bloody nose after a hit early in the Bills' 30-10 win over the Jets on September 14—he left the game briefly and returned after trainers checked him; he is expected to start Thursday against the Dolphins at 8:15 p.m.

The Bills beat the Jets 30-10 on Sunday as their defense rebounded strongly after giving up 40 points in the previous game—missing key players like Ed Oliver and Taron Johnson.

The team now prepares to face the Dolphins Thursday night at Highmark Stadium while working to stay healthy.
