261 Georgia Street / Hotel Derwood - Demolished
Buffalo NY
You
may
enjoy some information about a building, listed as an empty lot, which
is sadly no more. I might be the last person to have family that had
lived there.
In
that
incarnation, it was The Derwood, and before then, a Judge's
mansion. The porch was removed, and steps were added. I was told
there was once a Tea Room in the basement!
The
Derwood
was lost in a fire that made the front page of the Buffalo Evening
News. The Derwood didn't burn down, but the smoke and water
damage made it unsalvageable.
The
structure
behind the main building was previously a Carriage House, converted
into rooms
