Buffalo's Architectural Treasures explores the city The New York Times has called "a textbook for a course in modern American buildings" and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution "a vast outdoor museum." Hosted by Tim Tielman, Executive Director of the Campaign for Greater Buffalo History, Architecture and Culture, the video documents Buffalo's history as the quintessential 19th century boomtown. This frenzy of economic activity produced great wealth and a subsequent "will to greatness" in its leading citizens that brought the best and brightest talents of the Gilded Age to Buffalo. In the course of this ten-minute tour, you'll visit the tree-filled parks and mansion-lined parkways designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, as well as the masterworks left in Buffalo by such legendary architects as Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, H.H. Richardson, Stanford White, Richard Upjohn, Daniel Burnham and Eliel and Eero Saarinen. Visit our website at www.visitbuffal...

He's got the Buffalonian accent so you know he's legit.

False. Research Tartaria.

How come the famous Larkin Office Building designed by Wright in Buffalo wasn't mentioned?

Man, I just love the houses Frank L. Wright designes. There are too many reasons to explain why. Who agrees?

@jimogrady1131 4 года назад

Damocles I grew up on Summit Ave, I was a kid had no Idea it was a LANDMARK. 1 thing I didn't like was going to ST. MARKS SCHOOL it was all nun teachers. My Parents sent us kids to Catholic Schools. It paid off none of us got involved with Drugs or Alcohol

I love aSt. Paul's years ago, I put a handwritten prayer on the altar. It was my most sincere and earnest prayer for myself in my life. God said, "No." Turns out that the man I prayed for was so not for me nor I him. Still waiting for a "Yes" from God on the right man. Prayers.

Buffalo is a ghost town now. We were there to tour the Martin House three years ago. They do have some great architecture, but in an abandoned urban landscape.

@UBstudentaffairs 14 лет назад

This is such a beautiful video. Thanks for highlighting the Buffalo that is hidden behind our reputation for snow. We love you.

I think what Clinton (Buffalo) really needs is a Trillionaires Row with my wife of course.

@chrisbrown3549 5 лет назад

I agree. Can i be your landscaper ?

@cammoman45 12 лет назад

It's definitally JUST the south towns, not many people sound like that here.lol

@waltkeast9777 5 лет назад

Nice video, but nothing that wasn't going on in the great cities of America at the time.

@charlesgallagher1376 3 года назад

No it wasn’t, Buffalo was the Gateway to the West. Buffalo was America’s boom town 100 years ago.

@tazsnuts99 6 лет назад

Frank Lloyd Wright also designed the Larkin building to in downtown Buffalo

The guy in khakis standing in front of a parking deck wont tell you . . . but I will: Among Buffalo's finest architectural treasure is the magnificent Erie County Savings Bank . . . unfortunately this treasured 1893 masterpiece has been reduced to shards and resides in the landfill. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erie_County_Savings_Bank

It looks like a nice place.

I grew up in Town of Tonawanda, a suburb of Buffalo. I spent much of my youth in the 1960-1980s riding my bike all over Buffalo. This video brings back many memories as I left the area when I was 26. Thanks for posting it! If Buffalo was in a warmer climate, I might have stayed there!

@keyboardtek - did you find local music to enjoy while you were growing up here? Did you play too?

@keyboardtek 29 дней назад

@@-Cece How did you guess? I am 69 years old. I went to Kenmore East high school with drummer Ted Reinhardt, (Rodan, Spyro Gyra, Gamalon) sax player Mike Migliore, (Maynard Ferguson Band) and bassist Billy Sheehan (Talas, Mr. Big, Niacin) . The people I jammed with formed Spyro Gyra. I was a keyboardist in eight different bands for ten years. Vocalist Donna Rose is still singing in clubs there. I was her piano player in the Rose Fever band.

@-Cece 29 дней назад

@@keyboardtek you said Tonawanda. I am a HUGE fan of Weekend (Weekend Trip) with drummer Tom Ryan and bass player Rick Ryan, keyboard and songwriter the late Ned Wood, and Frank Grizanti on guitar and vocals by Bob Culver.

@-Cece 29 дней назад

@@keyboardtek great bands you listed. Rick Falkowski wrote a great book called History of Buffalo Music & Entertainment. I own it and you should too.

@keyboardtek 29 дней назад

@@-Cece Are you old enough to have heard Raven? I once walked into a room with a Steinway grand piano in the basement of Baird Hall, which was the UB music building ages ago, and where Raven's pianist Jimmy Calire was warming up. He sounded like Keith Jarrett doing his solo piano concert. Buffalo had a lot of excellent musicians in my day. I have not been to Buffalo for over 25 years.

Actually guaranty building was in 1891

@michaelseitz4740 11 лет назад

thisherecat2 probably either grew up in Buffalo and migrated to the burbs in the 60's, never to return to the "awful" Downtown area, or is a product of such, have resided their entire life in such wonderful first ring suburbs, like the "Luminous" Cheektowaga. Or I could be just wrong and you could not be from here. But if you are, and you think it's a slum, LEAVE.

@emu5088 13 лет назад

I love buffalo, and I love it's architecture. But this guy's accent makes me cringe. The buffalo accent is so winy and nasally (maybe it's just the southtowns? idk). But yes, GO BUFFALO!

@DavidJGillCA 8 лет назад

Maybe you spend too much time and effort judging the minor qualities of other human beings to be able to live among the rest of us. Seriously....a Buffalo accent? If it exists it is so slight its hardly worth noticing.

@chrisbrown3549 6 лет назад

emu5088 actually..they speak phonetically correct as websters dictionary teaches. If you do not..u go to speech class to be corrected. Something MANY SCHOOLS IN USA DONT DO. So..you slowboy..are incorrect..if speaking correctly is considered by you..or anyone an ACCENT. Learn.

@jstoli996c4s 5 лет назад

Not whiny or nasally. It’s the hard vowels like “a” that are very noticeable. Let’s Go Buffalo!!

@emu5088 4 года назад

@@DavidJGillCA Nope. Lived in Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and now in Chicago. The Buffalo accent is more different than any of those cities, and I'm not being judgmental, just pointing out a fact. I think you are just being defensive, to be honest.

@emu5088 4 года назад

@@chrisbrown3549 I've lived in Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and now in Chicago. The Buffalo accent is more different than any of those places and is extremely winy. Talk to a linguist. Don't be defensive, and learn to travel to different places in your own state to hear the difference. Even Rochester doesnt sound like this.
