Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A panoramic view of the main façade of the Center of Progress building on the New York State Fairgrounds, as seen from in front of the Dairy Products/Science and Industry complex in March 2021. One of the handful of buildings designed for the fairgrounds by the Buffalo architecture firm of Green & Wicks, the Center of Progress (originally known as the Manufacturers & Liberal Arts Building) dates to 1903 and is a good example of the monumental Neoclassical style favored by the firm's architects for institutional buildings of importance. The main façade, seen here, features a recessed central pavilion fronted by a colonnaded entrance terrace with richly decorated Corinthian columns, while in the projecting lateral wings the columns are engaged into a recessed portion of the exterior wall, an imposing iron cornice comes undergirded by ornate brackets, and a low-pitched hipped roof tops things off. In the rear is a massive arched interior hallway enclosing the building's impressive vaulted interior. |
