These noveau riches erected magnificent mansions, creating aristocratic residential thoroughfares in cities like Chicago, Boston and Buffalo, of which Delaware Avenue was surely among the most magnificent.

Encyclopedic in scope, Buffalo's Delaware Avenue: Mansions and Families is an immense book of facts that covers Buffalo's grandest Avenue.Discover the tales behind these mansions and their illustrious families.
