A 1920s design by Frank Lloyd Wright to be built in Buffalo.
"...ground will be broken today for a replica of the never-built gas station Frank Lloyd Wright designed for Buffalo during the Roaring '20s... Like most Wright projects that were built, and many that were not, the filling station would have been revolutionary. It included a fireplace and a ladies' lounge, and an exterior that faintly recalls his prairie-style houses."
