Summary

edit
Description
English: The Western New York Welcome Center, 1999 Alvin Road, Grand Island, New York, July 2020. Opened in 2018, this is one of 11 regional welcome centers constructed statewide by the New York State Thruway Authority around that time. The homage paid to Frank Lloyd Wright is immediately apparent just by passing the building along Interstate 190, but becomes even more so when you get a look at the detailing on the glass in some of the windows. The cavernous structure includes museum-style exhibits touting local history, culture, and attractions, as well as a small café serving all locally-sourced foods. The expansive plaza to the north of the main building features sculptures, a children's playground, and the Western New York Walk of Fame.
