50 Fountain Plaza, High-rise building in downtown Buffalo, United States
Description
50 Fountain Plaza is a high-rise office building in downtown Buffalo with 17 floors and a distinctive pyramid top decorated with color-changing LED lighting. The building offers flexible workspace options, including private offices, meeting rooms, and coworking areas designed for different business requirements.
History
The building was constructed in 1990 as the original headquarters for KeyBank before later converting into a multi-tenant commercial office building. This transformation reflected the changing needs of downtown and helped revitalize the business district.
Culture
The plaza serves as a gathering place for the city, particularly in warmer months when the fountain draws people to linger and relax. During winter, visitors and residents use the open space as an ice skating rink, creating a shared seasonal experience for the community.
Practical
The building is equipped with five elevators and accessible to visitors whether coming for work or retail purposes, as there are connected shopping areas nearby. The public plaza outside is easy to reach on foot and remains open year-round.
Did you know?
The building connects to its sister structure, 40 Fountain Plaza, through a two-story glass atrium that houses retail spaces. This link allows visitors to walk between the two towers while remaining indoors.
