10 Lafayette Square, Historic skyscraper in Lafayette Square, Buffalo, United States
10 Lafayette Square is a 20-story office building in Buffalo that displays International Style features through its spare aesthetic and concrete construction. The structure now contains residential units, hotel rooms, and office space within a single renovated complex following its transformation.
National Fuel Gas established this as their headquarters in 1959 and remained the building's primary tenant for several decades until relocating to Williamsville in 2003. This departure created an opportunity to reimagine the structure's purpose in the city.
Located on Lafayette Square, this structure serves as a residential and work space within Buffalo's urban core, drawing different groups of people to its halls. The transformation from single-use office space to a mixed-purpose complex reflects how the city adapts older buildings to meet current needs.
The building is served by five elevators that provide straightforward access throughout its various sections. Visitors should note that the mixed-use nature means different entrances and operating hours depending on which area you are visiting.
The building underwent a major renovation by the Hamister Group that involved an investment of around 41 million dollars. This rehabilitation was among the more substantial redevelopment efforts directed toward a single structure in Buffalo's recent urban landscape.
