Downtown Buffalo’s Dun Building gets its crown back

The Dun Building is finally getting its iconic cornice restored after decades without it, and that’s just the start of a major transformation. McGuire Development’s plan will turn this 1893 Pearl Street landmark into 36 upscale apartments, while keeping its historic charm front and center. Expect a deep bronze trim, restored masonry, and new indirect lighting to show off those classic details. The best part? The beloved basement restaurant will stay open during most of the work. What do you think—will this blend of old and new help revitalize downtown Buffalo? #Business #BuffaloNY #DunBuilding
