The Larkin Building was an office building in Buffalo, New York, noted for innovations that included central air conditioning, built-in desk furniture, and suspended toilet partitions and bowls. Located at 680 Seneca Street, it was demolished in 1950. Designed in 1903 by Frank Lloyd Wright and built in 1904-1906 for the Larkin Soap Company, the five-story dark-red brick building used a pink-tinted mortar and steel-frame construction. Sculptor Richard Bock provided ornamentation for the building. #NewYork #FrankLioydWright #Lost Architecture Chapters: 00:00 - Frank Lloyd Wrights’s most brutal building | The Larkin Administrative Building 00:56 - The history of office buildings 02:09 - What made Frank Lloyd Wright different from other architects? 03:58 - The History of the Larkin Soap Company 06:10 - What was inside The Larkin Administrative Building? 09:02 - Why The Larkin Administrative Building was so unique 09:58 - The Tragic Downfall of Albert Hubbard 12:33 - Why traveling to Europe on the Lusitania was a big mistake 14:31 - Why The Larkin Building Was Abandoned 16:46 - How to demolish a Frank Lloyd Write Monument Join this channel for exclusive videos: [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] Chapters: IT’S HISTORY - Weekly Tales of American Urban Decay as presented by your host Ryan Socash. » CONTACT For brands, agencies, and sponsorships: [email protected] [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] » CREDIT Scriptwriter - Ryan Socash Editor - Karolina Pleskot Host - Ryan Socash » NOTICE Some images may be used for illustrative purposes only - always reflecting the accurate time frame and content.
