Comments on the fall Members Only Tour :

We both totally enjoyed the 12noon tour. What a great idea - going "behind
the scenes" to poke around. Super!! We look forward to not only the spring
member's only tour, but also a clean-up day. We are both willing to come in
& tackle an area!

We enjoyed the tour, and because the time went so quickly we ended up
wishing it had been longer. The commentary and background information was
very helpful and added historic depth as well as a view to what the future
could hold for the building.

I'm very interested in seeing more of the inside and would love to tour the
tower some day.

For now, it's just great to know that it's been saved and that so many of
you loyal volunteers are looking out for any further predatory or
destructive activity. It's a big place and not an easy task to keep out
unwanted intruders.

That building was meant to last for centuries...not one person's lifetime,
or just long enough to outlast tax depreciation. It is truly a monument to
the excellence we were once capable of, and shame on us (as a society) for
ever letting it get so badly run down.

Long live Buffalo Central!
