It is considered third or fourth most architecturally rich cities in the US. Top four are, Detroit, Chicago, NYC and Buffalo.
Albright-Knox is beautiful, just outside is Delaware Park designed by Olmstead (designer of Central Park NYC)
There are 3 Olmstead parks in Buffalo. Sadly today park design has deteriorated as much as building design.... maybe even more.
