This is a cool little video I found on Facebook today by Rich Lunghino.

The Project for Public Spaces is doing a survey on the Broadway Market to determine where shoppers come from and other info.

Please take a moment to fill it out.

I heart 703 Fillmore.  It is on Fillmore just south of Broadway.  Long before being the First Holy Temple Full Gospel Baptist Church, it was the Masiel Furniture store built in 1925.

In the pictures above, you can see some of the detail…look at the old awning framework and some of the awning still left.

I am glad the building is in use.

It is another little rough around the edges gem of a building in B-F.

As you are contemplating the upcoming week, here is a question for you to ponder. Who stole the keeshka?

Have a great week!!!

Author Edward Zawadzki will be signing his book “Poles in the New World” at the Broadway Market on 01/21/2012 from 11am to 2pm as part of Polka, Piwo, & Pierogi event at the market.

From the author’s website…

“The Poles in the New World” has from the start been a project from my heart and to see it keep growing in popularity has made me so proud! I’m getting new bookings almost daily to visit so many strong regions of Polonia right across North America. This book highlights the lives of 50 Poles of distinction and their great contributions to North American society. From Pulaski, Brzezinski to Martha Stewart and Steve Wozniak, Poles have given so much of themselves to the building of our North American society.

From organizer Andy Golebiowski on Facebook:

Polish 40 Days of Christmas continued on January 15 at the St. Stan’s Social Center in Buffalo. In this video, Fr. Czesław Krysa gets the crowd going with the Polish Christmas Carol-Kolęda “Dzisaj w Betlejem” (Today in Bethlehem).

Here is a WIVB story on the event.
