Summary
[edit]DescriptionGenesee Building (Hyatt Hotel), Main Street and Huron Street, Buffalo, NY - 52685131907.jpg |
English: Built in 1923, this Renaissance Revival-style skyscraper was designed by Edward B. Green and William S. Wicks as an office building, replacing the earlier Genesee Hotel, which had stood on the site since the 19th Century. The building served as an office tower until 1980, when it was proposed for demolition, but community opposition to the building’s demolition led to it being preserved and adaptively reused as the Hyatt Regency Hotel, which added a large modern glass atrium atop the former right-of-way of Genesee Street, a twelve-story postmodern-style addition to the southwest of the original structure, and a podium along the Huron Street side of the building. The building features a red brick exterior with terra cotta trim, a terra cotta base, replacement one-over-one windows, a distinctive hipped copper roof with decorative cresting, an irregular footprint, rounded corners at the ends of the Genesee Street facade, two-story curtain walls at the base of the Main Street and Genesee Street facades, with stone panel bases, decorative pilasters, and narrow metal spandrels, terra cotta pilasters on the twelfth and thirteenth floors of the Genesee Street and Huron Street facades at the middle bays, a setback penthouse with arched windows in the middle bays flanked by pilasters, and an automobile entry court added to the west of the building during the 1980s renovation, which is partially landscaped. The building continues to serve as the Hyatt Regency Buffalo Hotel and Conference Center, with multiple shops and restaurants inside the retail spaces of the building’s atrium, anchoring the west side of Roosevelt Square. |
