In 1909 Buffalo was a city of more than 400,000 people, and its economy rested on three pillars: the lake and canal grain trade, a growing steel industry at Lackawanna to the south, and a rising automobile business. Pierce-Arrow, which had moved its works into the city in the early 1900s, built luxury cars there, while the Larkin Company, a soap and mail-order firm, employed thousands in its office and factory buildings. Grain elevators still crowded the waterfront, and the Olmsted-designed park system gave the city's residential avenues, especially Delaware and Elmwood, a green edge. Residents who looked across the harbor in 1909 would have seen a manufacturing city that was reaching well beyond its old role as a lake port.
