Poignant shot. Could you fill us non-Buffalonians in on the context?
-Where is this located? Is it the original location?
=What is this a monument to, and what did the missing brass plaque once say?

Thanks,

Thank you.

Apparently the fifth freedom is for corporations to abandon property without cleaning up after themselves. Same old story - privatize the profits, socialize the liabilities; hence the need for the Superfund.

Wish the plaque was still there, if it was it might be worth moving

Seems as though someone is taking charge and repairing this monument. Here's an updated pic -
