250 Delaware Avenue, Postmodern skyscraper in downtown Buffalo, United States
250 Delaware Avenue is a postmodern skyscraper in downtown Buffalo, New York, with 12 floors and a curved facade marked by terracotta accents. The tower combines office floors with a hotel, ground-level retail, and an integrated parking structure all within the same building.
The building was completed in 2015, replacing an older courthouse that had previously stood on the same site. Some design elements from the earlier structure were carried over into the new one, linking the two buildings across time.
The building is home to the headquarters of Delaware North, one of the largest privately held companies in the US, which gives this address a certain weight in Buffalo's business life. The ground floor draws a daily mix of office workers, hotel guests, and shoppers, making it one of the more active corners of downtown.
The building sits in the heart of downtown Buffalo and is easy to reach on foot from other central landmarks. The ground floor is open to the public and offers retail and services that visitors can use without entering the office or hotel sections.
Inside the lobby, one of the largest living green walls in the region covers a full interior wall with growing plants. It is an element that many visitors do not expect to find inside a downtown office tower.
