Bennett Apartments, Buffalo

The Bennett Apartments in Buffalo, NY exhibit a number of Art Deco features. Dark coloured bricks are used as a way to introduce a pattern of lines against the lighter bricks of the rest of the building. These darker bricks are also set-out from the wall providing texture to the apartment block.

The patterning is best seen on the exterior of the stairwells and around the entrances where the use of glass bricks is also apparent.

Each entrance also has a semi-circular ribbed porch to provide shelter for residents using the doorways.
