KTA has been conducting work at the Colored Musicians Club, providing compliance guidance as part of an expansion project during a state-funded $2 million renovation. The renovation includes an elevator addition for greater accessibility to the second floor performance area.
As the only remaining African American club of its kind in the entire United States, the Colored Musicians Club actively encourages historical research and preservation of the history of jazz in Buffalo. The building was granted historic landmark status in 1979 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.
The Buffalo News discusses KTA’s work at the site in this article, specifically citing KTA’s application to the Preservation Board.
We are honored to be a part of ensuring the legacy of this building and its ties to African American history in Buffalo.
