Location: Off Campus, Lost Buildings

Historical Note:

In 1970, the house at 186 LeBrun Road was purchased as the official residence of the president of UB.  It replaced the Darwin D. Martin House, which had served in this capacity since the late 1960s.  Major advantages of 186 LeBrun were its close proximity to UB, its excellent condition and its size: large enough for the official entertaining required of the president.  186 LeBrun Road would serve as the president's residence from 1970-1982.


History/Chronology:
  • 1970 -- The house at 186 LeBrun Road is purchased by UB as the official residence of the president
  • 1982 -- The house at 186 LeBrun Road is sold when the president's residence is relocated a short distance to 889 LeBrun Road.
