West Seneca Town Hall, 1250 Union Road, West Seneca, New York, October 2009. The first purpose-built government building in the town, this $500,000 structure - a replacement for cramped quarters at a former American Legion post on Seneca Street, on what's now the site of the West Seneca Senior Center - opened in 1968 with a design that's thoroughly Modernistic following the fashion of the era, yet also incorporates numerous subtle nods to the Greco-Roman tropes that characterized civic and institutional edifices of years past: the glass-paneled entrance is framed by a quartet of stone pillars reminiscent of a Classical portico, while the windows in the side wings are treated similarly, recessed behind an ersatz colonnade. Aside from the town government, the building also houses the headquarters of the West Seneca Police Department.
