Well, do remember while the first to propose moving the capital, I favoured a greenfield site, one near Walden, NY if I recall correctly. I have always been hesitant about using the capital for purposes of economic revitalisation; such a move would likely displace, not empower, the local people. In an extreme case like Camden, we'd see mass displacement, the intensification of local tensions, and several areas of uneven development. For a city like Buffalo, which is healthier economically, it would supplement and stimulate local businesses, because they're mature and complex enough to interact with the sort of climate an administrative center.

Also remember we've already begun to relocate several government institutions to Buffalo, such as the regional university and the Governor's School. New York is far too expensive a city to maintain our government in-we're best off selling our properties for the inevitable windfall.
