The Foundry Lofts

MULTI-USE PART OF HISTORY

The former FWS Furniture building in North Buffalo, originally built in 1916, underwent an $18 million face-lift. The building now contains 56 apartments, 10 room-boutique hotel, office space and banquet halls.

The Foundry Lofts followed a trend throughout Buffalo and Western New York of transforming an older, vacant, manufacturing/warehouse buildings into multi-use, residential complex. As a repurposed building, the renovations required new electrical wiring, fire alarm and security systems. The energy efficient lighting included fluorescents in the commercial areas and LED lighting in the banquet facilities.
