History

Building it in Buffalo


 

 

 

 

 

The Building

The FLW Boathouse will provide a much-needed resource for the West Side Rowing Club (WSRC), the nation's largest rowing club. For the past 90 years, the WSRC has provided the Buffalo-Niagara region with access to the sport of rowing. Their high school, college and community programs produce championship crews and have won national recognition for our region. To date, the club has produced 10 Olympians, 34 U.S. National team members and hundreds of collegiate rowers.

In addition to being a working boathouse the building will be accessible to architectural tourists who desire to tour this building and experience its authentic spaces.
