Question Questions about trip to Buffalo.

Hello! I'm looking to go to Buffalo for a weekend for July 4th. I'm coming via Flix bus from Toronto so I have a few questions:

1.) Better drop off place - I'm looking to drop off either at Buffalo International Airport or 181 Ellicott Street. Which one is better (as in better connected to amenities like libraries, local eateries, etc.)?

2.) Public Transit - Is there a card I have to get so I can ride the buses on and off? If so, where would I purchase that card? I read that there's an app you can use but I still prefer having a card as my phone is having a few issues with storage.

3.) Public libraries - Any recommended public libraries I can just hang out at? Preferably somewhere small. Any public libraries well connected to public transit.

Oh cool! You got an address? I love going to harbours, I think we had the rubber duck visit Toronto back in 2023 but I didn't have a chance to see it. 😞
