DescriptionFormer St. Valentine RC Church, Buffalo, New York - 20200524.jpg
English: The former St. Valentine Roman Catholic Church, 528 South Park Avenue, Buffalo, New York, May 2020. Designed by architect George Dietel in a stripped Neoclassical style, the building features a sextet of Tuscan columns separating the second-floor windows on the façade, with a decorative parapet along the flat roofline that contains a small cartouche. Founded in 1920, St. Valentine served a small Polish-American community that had settled in the heretofore monolithically Irish neighborhood of the First Ward; the building seen here was dedicated in 1923 and endured until 2007, when, as part of the Buffalo diocese's "Journey in Faith and Grace" consolidation program, it merged with four other churches to form the new St. Clare parish. The building was purchased in 2009 by Ellicott Development, who is marketing it for reuse as office or eductional space.
