Tour Famous Buildings & Architecture
“Buffalo has been able to retain a lot of its original character in its parks and its streetscapes and individual buildings and because of that it has a very authentic and original character that many other cities that boomed during the age of the automobile do not have. As a city planner who chose to live in Buffalo when I could have lived anywhere else, this is what attracted me here and I know it has attracted a lot of other folks here and I think that people of all ages and backgrounds are craving authenticity, a sense of place, and character. And this is something that Buffalo has in tremendous wealth. Not only does Buffalo have examples of the work of some of the great American architects, but often their best examples. Buffalo is the most magical place you’ve never thought about.”

While many cities’ early 20th-century masterworks have been lost to time, Buffalo’s have been lovingly maintained and restored.
