I had a chance to take a guided tour of the Buffalo City Hall building yesterday.\u00a0 The tour was very enlightening and it was great to hear the background of many of the structures in the building. The statue in the image is titled Diligence.\u00a0 It is one of the four statues adorning the lobby. Each of the four statues represent the characteristic of good citizenship, Virtue, Diligence, Service, and Fidelity. There are also four corridors off the lobby, each holding colorful murals depicting Buffalo’s industry. Notice the familiar symbol in the upper-left-corner? Well, it’s not what you think. It’s a native american symbol which represents the four winds.<\/p>\n

I highly recommend touring this amazing piece of architecture when visiting the Nickel City.<\/p>\n
