This is brilliant. Thanks so much for sharing your visit. I'm almost afraid to ask what the future holds for these giants of our industrial and labor past...

Thanks for the video, as a life long resident of WNY, the elevators always interested me. Been on the ground by them, but never entered any of them.

Me too. I never went inside them before. I will have part II out next month.

Very cool! I've always found elevators interesting. I toured the Gold Medal Flour elevator in Minneapolis and found it fascinating. That one was destroyed by a dust explosion at one point. It was nowhere near as big as this one in Buffalo though!

You are more knowledgeable about the workings of this elevator than most of the explorers. But you are older than most of them.😂

That’s the Buffalo River. Not the Canal.

Posted 4 days ago??? I'm near Buffalo now, and it's not 5 degrees and no snow on the ground, more like 38-40 degrees this week. Just wanted to make us look bad with the cold and snow??? Interesting how you and the camera guy just walked around, oh and with your drone here and there, No history, and the "eerie" music playing........and then post this evidence of where you were.......🙄

It was filmed last year. I only just edited it as I was working on another documentary. BTW, I am the camera guy. As for the history, I AGREE. So I did add some anecdotal historical stuff in there (screen graphics etc), but chose for the sake of expediency to post the experience of being in there over a drawn out treatise on its history.

Thanks for reaching out. It was fun to film this. And in this case having proper access was really handy. I have part II mostly edited, just need to clean up some of the graphics and sound.
