Summary
[edit]DescriptionOrrin Foster Mansion, Buffalo, New York - 20200120.jpg |
English: The Orrin Foster Mansion, 891 Delaware Avenue, Buffalo, New York, January 2020. Built in 1905, the prominent architectural features on this Spanish Colonial Revival beauty (a style that's comparatively rare in the Buffalo area) are the rough-textured stone façade, a low-pitched hip roof with Craftsman-style rafters under the eaves pierced by dormers on all four sides (and, on the north and south sides, marble chimneys in turn piercing the dormers), and - above all - round arches ubiquitous throughout the building, from the entrance portico to the second-story windows (the latter typically topped with Florentine-arched voussoirs). Orrin Elliott Foster (1840-1928) was born in Colden, New York but lived in Canada for most of his childhood and young adulthood; beginning as a traveling pharmaceutical salesman, he moved to Buffalo to co-found the Foster-Milburn Company, manufacturer of patent medicines including most famously "Doan's Kidney Pills". His $400,000 bequest to the University of Buffalo in Buffalo funded the construction of what's now called Foster Hall. The building was later converted to offices: it was home to DeRose Food Brokers until 2006, and was owned by Canisius College after that. It was named a Buffalo Landmark in 1978. |
