It would be a poor decision to disrespect the area residents who clearly are here for the long haul and have stated that they want a built environment that is in keeping with the original Olmsted vision and design. Here's your chance to shine, but not with inappropriate metal material.

For residents on Linwood Ave, the value of the homes represent a lifetime investment, and Canterbury Woods use of metal panel facades will cause a reverse of recent property value increases that have been twenty years in the making.

I have lived on Linwood in apartments and then my home. I bought here in 1976 for the historic look of our beautiful neighborhood. Please make every effort to keep that feel when designing the buildings. You do not want UGLY on peoples lips. Heed what we want. NO METAL PANELS. Thank you.

My opposition to metal panels or any metal facing material is the possibility it will rust like the blue panels on two other high rise buildings on Delaware. If the materials will never rust, I do not oppose the material.

This building lacks creativity, that's why the metal panels are terrible. It's neither strikingly forward thinking and modern nor is it historically or architecturally relevant. It could be anywhere - an industrial park by the airport or strip mall in Any City, USA

We had hoped for a building with architecture that was compatible with the historic nature of our community. This structure looks just like the Canisius housing on Delavan or the Frizlen building on Elmwood - totally disregarding the elegance of the surrounding community.

The design should respect the established setbacks at Gates Circle and reflect the highest standards of design in Buffalo. Perfect scale, high quality materials, and refined design must be part of any new build at this important civic location.

This design does not fit as it stands with the general architecture of the neighborhood in this area and the Buffalo historical design of the parkway. A more appropriate design is needed.
