About this property
Welcome to The Karpeles Manuscript Library Museum which opened to the public in 2006. Originally built in 1911 and designed by architect Solon Spencer Beman, this notable structure was the former First Church of Christ, Scientist. The architecture is a striking example of Neo-Classical and Greek Revival design, featuring a six-columned portico, fluted Ionic columns, a classic porch, and a pediment. Its unique asymmetric design perfectly complements the corner lot, and the building was recently featured in the film Nightmare Alley. The interior and exterior spaces of this Buffalo icon provide an exceptional backdrop for any future use. The interior offers a cavernous foyer leading into a large, pillared hall with terrazzo flooring and a coffered ceiling. A lit canopy arches across the former sanctuary, highlighting the building's distinctive classical elements. The exterior is defined by rough-textured masonry contrasted with vibrant red roof tiles and 25-foot picture windows. Being sold as-is condition. Offers Due by 2:00pm Monday 2/9/26. Email proof of funds and Contract, required. LOI will not be accepted.
