Cayuga Creek
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cayuga Creek is a small river in Western New York, USA. The creek enters Buffalo Creek in the northwest corner of the Town of West Seneca. At that point, "Buffalo Creek" becomes the "Buffalo River" and flows into Lake Erie south of Buffalo, New York.
The creek is named after the Cayuga tribe, one of the constituent members of the Iroquois.
The watershed of Cayuga Creek includes, the Towns of Alden, Cheektowaga, Elma, Lancaster, and Marilla in Erie County and the Towns of Bennington and Sheldon in Wyoming County.
The creek is an important feature in Stiglemeyer Park in the Town of Cheektowaga and Como Park in the Town of Lancaster.
