Another massive structure sits vacant in the city of Buffalo. The former Trico Plant is considered the third largest building in Buffalo. 

The 600,000 square feet building stretches across two downtown blocks.  It is featured as one of the "reuse" stories in the March issue of Buffalo Spree.

This morning on Press Pass, WBFO'S Eileen Buckley talks with Buffalo Spree editor Elizabeth Licata about her column, Preservation Ready that focuses on the Trico building, considered a landmark.
