The “Livery Building<\/a>” on Buffalo’s West Side has been getting a lot of attention in the news lately.\u00a0 Everytime I see stories like that, I think\u00a0of the buildings in B-F…think about\u00a0what\u00a0is being lost and at what cost.\u00a0 Are\u00a0a lot\u00a0of these truly beautiful architectural gems in B-F doomed without anyone really taking notice.<\/p>\n

These type of fears become even more real to me when I stumble across a building which is too far gone to be saved\u00a0or when I read an article like the following.<\/p>\n

This is an excerpt from Marty Biniasz’s Forgotten Buffalo<\/em> website on the Polish Union Building…<\/p>\n

The PUA left for West Seneca in the 1990s, leaving the building to various landlords. The current church who owns the building is in no position to restore and preserve this important element of the historic Polonia District.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This building is truly magnificent and so Zawadzki-esque…<\/p>\n

“W\u0142adys\u0142aw H. Zawadzki was the most important Polish-American architect in Buffalo. He designed a number of buildings in the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood and, that as a group, constitute his best work.” –Intensive Level Survey of Historic Resources City of Buffalo, Broadway-Fillmore Neighborhood <\/a><\/p>\n

It may be time for us to re-inventory the historic buildings in B-F to get a realistic view as to\u00a0the condition of the\u00a0structures and devise a\u00a0way to ensure they are not overlooked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
