Nice shot of the tower. There is yet again another plan to revive the building, which has been derelict(40 years) almost as long as it was open(50 years). A nit pick if I may: it's Buffalo Central Terminal. It never really was a true union station, serving the NYC almost exclusively; Pennsy did have a couple of trains that called there, something of an oddity, given their rivalry. Buffalo in its heyday was a large city, much more so than now, but for some reason, never had a union station handling all, or even most, of the passenger service that went there, which was significant up til about 1960, when the decline really accelerated.
