WS terminal in Buffalo?

Can anybody tell me the address of the old West Shore passenger station in Buffalo, the one they used when in competition with the NYC?

West Shore owned the freight house on Carroll Street. Not sure where the passenger trains of the original New York West Shore & Buffalo Ry terminated but, because it was built with Pennsylvania RR money, it would not have used any Vanderbilt property, not until it was sold to the Commodore anyway.

The NYWS&B never had its own passenger terminal in Buffalo, as funds had run out, and the fight with the NYC was draining what money it did have. So, the WS used the WNY&P's station in the city. At one point, the WS was locked out of the WNY&P station for non-payment of rent. When the NYC gained control of the WS, it moved the trains to its own station.

The 1894 Buffalo atlas shows the WS as owning a vacant block between Carrol and Exchange Sts north of the Erie terminal. Was this later the freight house?

BTW, there's a lot of other great Buffalo rr info on this atlas.

That land was to be the passenger and freight stations, later just the freight station.

Go to the online Atlas: Buffalo in 1894.

It shows the land purchased by the NYWS&B for their never-built passenger terminal, bounded by Carroll, Michigan, Exchange and Chicago Streets. The WNY&P station, which the WS used during its brief independence, is one block west. The maps in this atlas are excellent for tracking the railroads and terminals.
