About JR Barrington Building
The JR Barrington Building at 686 Main St. is Buffalo's premier Theatre District apartment building. With sleek, modern high end finishes, the JR Barrington Building is your ticket to living like a star in Buffalo's revitalized downtown core. Located along the metro rail line on Main St., the apartments are perfectly situated for downtown workers and medical campus workers. You're a quick metro rail ride away from the medical campus, downtown offices, the rejuvenated waterfront, Key Bank Center (Buffalo Sabres & arena concerts), and colleges. Many restaurants, music venues, clubs and gyms are within walking distance. The JR Barrington Building was originally built in 1901 by the George N. Pierce Company, an established bicycle manufacturer who would later manufacturer the Pierce Arrow automobiles. The façade was designed in the Beaux Arts style utilizing detailed white terra cotta. In 1930, the interior of the building underwent significant renovations by Mendleson Furniture Company. They even built a life sized house within the building to display their furniture. The last occupant of the building was the Sid Birzon jewelry company until the early 2000's. The building has been vacant ever since and we are pleased to bring the building back to prominence as the JR Barrington Building! This is an equal housing opportunity location.
JR Barrington Building is located in the Downtown Buffalo Neighborhood and 14202 Zip code of Buffalo, NY.
