Larkin Terminal Warehouse, Industrial warehouse in Buffalo, United States.
Larkin Terminal Warehouse is a large 10-story industrial building designed with extensive windows across its exterior walls. Train tracks at ground level allowed goods to move directly into the structure, while multiple elevators connected the upper floors for internal distribution.
Construction was completed in 1912 as a distribution center for the Larkin Soap Company's mail-order business. The building changed hands and purpose when sold to Graphic Controls in 1967.
The workplace employed mostly young women in the early 1900s, which shaped how people understood factory work and female participation in industry at that time. The building became known for these hiring practices that stood out among manufacturing facilities of that era.
The building is located in Buffalo and stands out visually with its extensive window coverage and industrial proportions. When visiting, pay attention to the ground floor tracks and the vertical layout to fully appreciate how the space functioned as a working warehouse.
A radio station added a broadcasting tower to the roof in 1936 that rose visibly above the cityscape. This tower became part of Buffalo's radio infrastructure and changed how the building was used from that point forward.
