Preserving a Treasure -
The ECC City Campus
(Buffalo Post Office).

A fascinating aspect of being an architectural and aerial photographer is being able to go places and see things that are not normally accessible to the general public. One such project is the ongoing restoration work at Buffalo's magnificent Old Post Office, which is now home to the City Campus of Erie Community College.

Flynn Battaglia Architects is overseeing the $10 million restoration of the building's masonry entryways and unique ornamental roof and skylight structure. I spent a beautiful autumn morning on the roof of this remarkable structure documenting this renovation project that was carefully planned to conserve the original design and ornate beauty of this local landmark. Picone Construction is maintaining the original design while utilizing modern materials and construction techniques to assure this architectural treasure will be preserved for years to come.

Built in the late 1890's, this remarkable building was fully restored in 1981 and repurposed to create the City Campus for Erie Community College. The large center court, under the expansive skylight, is one of Buffalo's most impressive interior spaces and directly influenced by H.H. Richardson's majestic Allegheny County Courthouse in Pittsburgh. 

   

Here is a selection of the images I created on this project
