New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, calling it a historic day, announced that hundreds of new jobs will be coming to the Dunkirk area with the creation of a cancer-treating drug manufacturing center. Cuomo made the trip to Dunkirk despite sub-zero wind chills and the threat of lake effect snow, to announce the new company, Athenex. He says it will be a "game-changer" for the area.
