Buffalo. For Real TV - Larkin Square Opening for the season tonight (and every Tuesday until late October) is Food Truck Tuesdays at Larkin Square. This Buffalo. For Real TV episode comes just in time to show the remarkable change in what had once been an abandoned manufacturing district known as the Hydraulics Neighborhood. The Zemsky family built the public square, encouraged First Niagara to move in next door, and are now starting the Hydraulic Hearth. A preservation movement has begun to save the nearby Larkin Power House from demolition. The increase of both businesses and social events in the Larkin District is just one indicator of an entire eastern sector of Buffalo coming back online. A hydraulic canal once ran through this neighborhood powering some of Buffalo's earliest businesses then giving way to the Larkin Company dynasty at the turn of the 20th century erecting the buildings that still stand today. Yet, the crown jewel of the empire, the Larkin Administration Building designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, does not stand among them - a victim of demolition over preservation.
