Saying Goodbye to The Continental

Business suits and punks. Mohawks and tattoos. All were welcome at Buffalo's legendary nightclub The Continental.

The infamous bar closed almost five years ago, but the building has remained until now.

It's being demolished to make way for a new $19 million hotel.

"It's incredibly sad," said Jennifer Clark. She came to downtown Buffalo on Thursday afternoon to say goodbye to the club and share some fond memories.

"There are some other clubs that are fun to go to, but I don't think anyone who ever went here will ever tell you there's another place that had the same kind of magic," said Clark, who met her husband at The Continental seven years ago.

Demolition on the building is expected to start in the next few days.
