Buffalo, NY – Much attention has been paid to the restoration of the H.H. Richardson complex on Elmwood Avenue in Buffalo. But a leading preservationist in the area says restoring the grounds as designed by Frederick Law Olmsted is just as important.
Tim Tielman of the Campaign for Greater Buffalo envisions a Richardson Park to complement the restored landmark structures. Tielman said it was only recently that he and some Olmsted scholars compared a 1927 aerial photo with Olmsted's original plan for the site.
Tielman joined WBFO's Mark Scott for an interview about Richardson Park. Click the "listen" icon above to hear their conversation now or use your podcasting software to download it to your computer or iPod.
