If architecture is of interest to you, then take a tour through North Buffalo. Many popular and famous architects have done work throughout that area, especially Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed the house pictured to the right. Along with many mansions and other homes built throughout North Buffalo, a few structures from the Pan-American Exposition still remain in Delaware Park. Located not far from Delaware Park is the Wilcox Mansion. It was here, in 1901, that Theodore Roosevelt was inaugurated as the 26 th President of the United States following the assassination of President McKinley at the Exposition.
Buffalo has many cultural and spiritual landmarks as well.
The Basilica of Our Lady of Victory in Lackawanna is purely spectacular. Many shopping centers are located throughout Buffalo, the most attractive being the Walden Galleria Mall in the suburb of Cheektowaga. This mall includes over 200 stores and 12 theatres. As noted above, there are many festivals, events and attractions that occur year round in Western New York. Rochester, New York is close to Buffalo in distance, but the majority of travelers coming into Rochester are people on business.
