From today’s Buffalo Business First:
A direct mail program targeted for sign manufacturers throughout the United States and a documentary on the efforts of the Central Terminal Restoration Corp. were named the year’s best by the Buffalo/Niagara Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA).
Curbell Plastics’ Tracy Schiedel, Jessica Mitrovits, Sara Calarco and Rachel Gottlieb, along with Barbara Irwin of Canisius College Video Institute received platinum “Best of Show” and gold Excalibur awards for their work on the campaigns. The Curbell Plastics program resulted in exceeding goals for increased awareness of Curbell’s products for the sign-building market by using direct mail and a Web-based survey. Irwin’s documentary featured commentary by officials, preservationists, urban planners, former railroad employees and architects who discussed the Central Terminal’s architectural and social significance, and the activities undertaken by Restoration Corp. to preserve and restore it.
Congratulations and many thanks to Barb Irwin, Kirsten Jahn and Scott Richardson for doing such a fine job in promoting our cause!
Great news!
I wish you lots of Good luck in restoring the Buffalo Central Terminal. I’m from Largo Florida. I used to live in Buffalo NY and I know the terminal building. I was even in there in the year 1983 when it was called Central Terminal Plaza. The building is too good to let go. It’s a landmark. Once again…Good luck.
