The Wurlitzer Building
The Wurlitzer Building serves as the gateway to Niagara County. The building’s grand tower is a beacon of the past, present, and future, and it marks the building as a familiar and beloved landmark. The sprawling complex began as the North Tonawanda Barrel Organ Factory. The Wurlitzer Company purchased it in 1908 and put it on the map as a producer of world-class theater organs and employing over 3,000 people.
​
Today, with this rich historical background, The Wurlitzer Building is home to retail and office spaces, including Platter’s Chocolate Factory and Wurlitzer Events. The building is a unique offering with a rich historic past as a beloved landmark in the Western New York community. It is believed to be the first true industrial reuse events facility in Niagara County.
