History

The Lyndon B. Johnson Apartments was built in 1973 as a 10-story tall apartment unit with 206 units inside the building in Buffalo.[4]

During the December 2022 North American winter storm the power was shut down in the building due to the storm.[5] Due to the power outage, a 91-year-old woman named Doris Williams froze to death.[6][7] After the death of Doris Williams, the daughter of her sued the Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority citing wrongful death and other claims of mismanagement of the building.[8]

In August, 2023, a large 10-story tall mural was made on the side of the building.[9] The mural was created by Aaron Li-Hill.[10][11]
