(By Mike Puma – Views of Buffalo) The following statement comes directly from Preservation Buffalo Niagara regarding the threat of demolition at St. Ann’s Church and Shrine at Broadway and Emslie streets.
Earlier this week the Diocese of Buffalo announced the planned demolition of St. Ann’s Church on Broadway Avenue in Buffalo. The announcement comes nearly a year and half after the Diocese closed the church as a temporary worship site as a result of safety concerns posed by the building’s exterior condition. In April of this year an engineering study revealed a multi-million dollar estimate for reconstruction and repair of the church’s stone structure. Preservation Buffalo Niagara(PBN) is determined to find a viable alternative to the impending demolition of this historic landmark.
