The Waldorf is located to the north of the Wayne. The four-story brick apartment blocks are identical and bilaterally symmetrical along Waldorf Place, a small private lane running between the two. The buildings were designed in a modest Colonial Revival style by Buffalo architect William H. Archer for James Campsall, who was also a carpenter.1
