Great article by Jeff Klein in the Times about what was once Buffalo's Broadway Auditorium. It now houses plows and salt for Buffalo's awesome snow removal force. The structure was built in 1858 as an armory. According to the article and bisonhistory.com, the Bisons of the International Hockey League played there from 1930-1931. It also saw the start of box lacrosse in the 1930s, and Six Nations star Harry Smith, who later bcame the Lone Ranger actor Jay Silverheels, played at the Auditorium. Thank you Jeff Klein at the Times and and Tim Warchocki at bisonhistory.com for the terrific history lesson. Below you can listen to my audio essay about my favorites sounds. Number One on the list: snow plows going by.
