Late last week, to the Albright Knox Art Gallery to share our concern for the recently released campus expansion concept design. The proposed concept appears to destroy character-defining elements of the Albright Knox Art Gallery including partial demolition of the significant 1962 addition by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.

°®¶¹app became aware of the concept design announcement following a number of media reports and local concern about the proposal. The campus development project, named AK360 and released concept design images and details can be found on the website.

°®¶¹app will continue to support local preservation efforts and monitor the issue.
