Summary
[edit]DescriptionWashington Building (Holling Place Apartments), Buffalo, New York - 20220609.jpg |
English: The Washington Building, 501 Washington Street, Buffalo, New York, June 2022. Built in 1924 to a design by the locally-based firm of Hudson & Hudson, this ten-story loft building is a fine example of the commercial architecture of its era, both in its use of steel-reinforced concrete as structural material and stylistically as an example of so-called Stripped Classicism - or, in the words of a particularly exuberant Buffalo Times article on the subject of its construction, "its architecture is designed to express the present-day tendency toward artistic appearance and maximum usefulness". The Greco-Roman-inspired features of its design include stylized Doric pilaster strips interspersed between windows on the bottom two stories; projecting cornices crowning the second, third, and ninth stories (the third-story one being the most prominent, undergirded by a dentil row and separating the limestone-faced bottom portion of the façade with the brick upper portion), and a modest-scaled pediment at the roofline adorned with a central roundel window and finials in the form of urns. Though it was originally intended as a mixed-use building with retail space on the ground floor and offices above, in short order the majority of the space came under the use of Holling Press, the printing company owned by Thomas L. Holling, who served as president of the consortium that owned the building and also for a time as Mayor of Buffalo. Holling Press remained headquartered there until its bankruptcy in 2000. The building became part of the locally-listed 500 Block of Main Historic District upon its boundary expansion in 2018. It now contains apartments. |
