This morning I snapped this exterior pic. And a quick check of City records seems to indicate that current owners purchased this building for 50K at the City's tax sale back in 2001. Way cool. Thought I knew what was happening in my neighborhood. I totally missed this. Thanks Barry!
You'll never believe what you see out the front windows of this loft. One of Main Street's coolest single family homes - here and here - right across the street!__________________________________________________________________________

This is something I'd like to do. Seems like the ownes made the most of a good deal (50k). And you weren't exaggerating about the cool house. It's awesome (time to remove the Christmas decorations, however).
it is the younger people with brains, talent and creativity who will be the saviors of buffalo.
what a wonderful accomplishment for these owners!!!
Or you could check out Buffalo Rising which had this story..oh I don't know...about a 100 years ago.
