About This File

The Lyons Elevator was a marine grain elevator in Buffalo, New York state. Located on an island in the Peck Slip, it was not rail-served, but functioned as a transfer elevator, moving grain from canal boats to steamers. This building was built in the late 19th century and was gone before World War I.

There are at least two good photographs known of this building: a front elevation and a side elevation. For the other sides, some details were modeled after similar prototypes in Buffalo. The corrugated iron siding is a typical retrofit on surviving elevators of the period.

All models are HD with nightlights (Maxis nite only).
