I have a degree in Interior Design and I also have mad love for architecture. Being able to check out this facility made all of my dreams come true I swear it! To say that it is an amazing piece of architecture is underwhelming. It is simply breathtaking. And, it is all of those things you expect to feel from it: eery, spooky, intriguing, mysterious and glamorous. It's so easy for the mind to imagine what it must have been like for the people who were patients here and what they might have gone through. It's almost like stepping into the pages of a thriller novel. A must-visit in Buffalo!
I went on a Halloween drive with my friends and we decided to drive by the Psych Center. I went to Buff State so I got to see it every day, anyway. But it's such a beautiful sight at night. It's really powerful to just look at the building and try and feel what the people who had to stay in there felt. Lots of history and I'm glad it has been preserved for so long. Awesome piece of Buffalo. X's and O's! J
The Buffalo Psy Center is where top specialists study the song "Gangnam Style" and its cultural implications and the reasons behind its success. This place is not that. I've been to these grounds so many times because it's one of my fave spots in Buffalo. From the street, or from inside the complex, it's just haunting and amazing. I love coming here after being downtown or on Elmwood or Hertel in the middle of the night. It's amazing the way they light it up, too. I haven't been in the mental patient wards, though. I don't know if I'd want to. I imagine people screaming and lots of drugs and electric shock therapy (OK I know that doesn't happen, but leave me and my imagination to our delusions, ok?), so why on earth would I give such a horrific place a 5? It's the most beautiful building in Buffalo. It's even more amazing than the Grand Central Terminal, or City Hall, or the Walmart Supercenter on Transit Road. Well, maybe not that last one, but it's definitely at least in the same league as Walmart. It's stunning, and creepy, and spectacular, especially at night when it is all lit up. I drove on to the grounds the other night at 3am or 5am or 1am or something, and there were police cars all over the place. I thought I was going to be pulled over and then escorted into the building. I've been wondering how long it would take for Buffalo to realize I was clinically insane. But no, not yet. I got away with it. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA MWAHAHAHAHAHA MWAHAHAHA MWAH HAH HEE HO HO HO So anyway. I would recommend this as a stop (at night) to every single person visiting Buffalo. It is that scary. It is that striking. It is that creepy. Just don't drive through here blasting Gangnam Style. Otherwise you'll end up on the inside looking out. And you don't want them to go all lobotomy on your ass, do you. Although technically those aren't done on your posterior. Although if they were, it would probably by now be a niche of adult movies. Come to think of it, it probably is. (Goes off to search).
