Larkin Terminal Warehouse
The Larkin Terminal Warehouse, also known as Larkin at Exchange or the Larkin R/S/T Building, : p.88 is located at 726 Exchange Street, Buffalo, New York in a neighborhood known as the "Hydraulics." The neighborhood was one of Buffalo's earliest industrial districts and its name is derived from the construction of a small hydraulic canal. The building, clearly visible from the I-190 interstate, was originally part of the Larkin Company and was one of the last constructed buildings in the complex. The building has a radio tower on the roof erected by WEBR-AM in 1936.
