Where Buildings First Got Electric Light at Scale

Buffalo was among the first cities lit by hydroelectric power, carried from Niagara Falls from 1896 over Tesla's alternating current system — which settled the argument with Edison's direct current for good.

The clock: Buffalo keeps Eastern Time. Lake Erie's snow belt has dropped over two metres on the city in a single storm.
