Chimneys in the Cobblestone District

I painted this on site after reading about the possible demolition of this building.  It is 120 South Park Ave.  and dates back to the end of the Canal Era in Buffalo  It would really be a shame to see it come down seeing as Buffalo is trying to recreate the "Erie Canal days" just 3 blocks away.  For more read http://www.buffalorising.com/2010/09/urgent-opportunities-the-list.html.  I have painted Illinois Street around the corner as well, and if my research is correct, this area used to be a very modern steam bakery back in 1871.  I'm really hoping we don't loose this one!
