Summary

[edit]
Description
English: View of Alumni Arena, the Center for the Arts, and Baird Point on Lake LaSalle. Baird Point is an outdoor, Greek-style amphitheater located on the southern shore of Lake LaSalle. It was a gift to the university from the Baird Foundation and the Cameron Baird Foundation. The marble columns on the concrete platforms were once part of the old Federal Reserve Bank in downtown Buffalo, and from some years lay outside old Baird Hall on UB’s south campus before their relocation to the lake. The columns were dedicated as a memorial to servicemen and servicewomen. Baird Point also serves as a stage for the bands that play at student Springfest and Fallfest celebrations. Lake LaSalle is a sixty acre man-made lake built in 1970 to provide flood control and water runoff. Today it is a popular spot for fishing and sunbathing. The lake, which is fed by two natural springs, attracts wild ducks, herons, and geese. Lake LaSalle's average depth is ten feet and its maximum depth is twenty-five feet.
