Summary

[edit]
Description
English: As seen in June 2020: the apartment building at 352-354 Franklin Street in downtown Buffalo, New York has a multifaceted history: architect John Coxhead was commissioned in 1892 by the Phoenix Club, the preeminent social club among Buffalo's Jewish-American elite, to design a new clubhouse for them. His response was a design that adapts his trademark Romanesque Revival template away from his usual medium of churches to a commercial application: round arches abound, both in the fenestration as well as in the form of the arcaded entrance leading from Franklin Street on the north side of the building; two-story bowed bay windows are another salient feature. In 1901, on the eve of the Pan-American Exposition, the building was purchased by speculators who built an addition on the rear and reopened it to visitors as the Hotel Phoenix, which in turn was renamed the Tudor Arms c. 1930. The building was converted to apartments in 1973.
