The Michigan Street Baptist Church is the only structure built by and for African Americans in the city of Buffalo and its founding members planned a significant role in the Underground Railroad. Later members Mary Talbert and Reverend Nash played a significant role in the early fight for Black Civil Rights. The Michigan Street Baptist Church had been structurally unsound for several years and scaffolding was in the sanctuary for about ten years. Stabilizing the church was a significant accomplishment of the BNFSC and the MSBC is now structurally sound and will be here for future generations to learn about its extraordinary legacy. 366339 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 11 11 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 NY X Lillie Wiley-Upshaw 7163205827 511 Michigan Street Buffalo NY 14203 X Paul McDonnell Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Richard Berger Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Larry Goins Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rachel Henderson Vice Chair 1.00 X 0 0 0 Talisa King Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Simone Ragland Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 DaShawn Hines Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tiffany Perry Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Janice Ferguson Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lillie Wiley-Upshaw - Chair Chair 10.00 X 0 0 0 Marguerite Lewis Treasurer 1.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 280968 41275 500 322243 Tour revenue 611710 320 320 320 322563 320 0 0 X 22400 5750 16650 72350 42120 12340 17890 365 365 11672 11672 5888 2594 3294 Capital expenditures 280968 280968 Archaeological reconnai 21985 21985 Photography 750 750 Membership 500 500 516 381 135 417394 366339 33030 18025 59735 58626 13304 13304 3035 3135 73039 78100 14393 285 25000 14393 25285 X 31058 52815 27588 0 58646 52815 73039 78100 -94831 89000 0 X 0 0 0 X 149916 495251 224478 722799 322243 1914687 149916 495251 224478 722799 322243 1914687 1914687 1914687 8062 1.00000 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X 1 0 0 439151 89000 27588 116588 322563 0 322563 417394 0 417394 0 417394 Part II, Line 9: The Buffalo Niagara Freedom Station Coalition, Inc. owns, preserves, and manages the Michigan Street Baptist Church for public benefit.
