Building the Buffalo AKG Art Museum

About the Project

In late 2019, Albright-Knox leaders and elected officials broke ground on the construction of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. Our construction manager, Gilbane Building Company, has completed mass excavation and concrete foundation work for the new Gundlach Building and are currently erecting its steel frame. The future Buffalo AKG Art Museum will open in 2022. Learn More
