Default Favorite abandoned Buffalo building with a view?

I often post here about Buffalo's great old buildings.

I liked 960 Busti ( Niagara) which itself was just a block shaped thing but had a nice view of downtown and the river. It has since gotten vandalized as Mitello had and has a way too high price tag on it.

As one goes up Niagara st there are a few more buildings with some view.

Anyone else into these things?

I've always heard that some of the abandoned Grain Elevators are prime for views of the city and lake. As is the Central Terminal, and many others.

Grain elevators for sure! What about the aud? I work in at One HSBC, and we see it great, I'd imagine that aside from what One HSBC blocks off, the aud would have a great view of downtown, especially city hall.

I used to run through abandon buildings daily when I was a teen. I was a true urban explorer. I wish I would have brought a camaera with me when I went. The train station, grain elevators and countless abandon houses, churches and warehouses. I never vandalized, just snooped. I wish i had the time or the nerve to set out and do it again with a camera

I would have expected those who love Buffalo - instead of just complaining about the haters could actually come up with plenty of properties that had nice views of downtown or the water. I found some each time I went there but I had limited time and resources.
