LACKAWANNA, N.Y. (WIVB) - Preservationists have successfully halted the demolition of the former Bethlehem Steel administration building.

Crews moved in to begin to tear down the building after a lawsuit between the City of Lackawanna and the building's owner ended last year with a judge approving the demolition. Part of the building has already been taken down.

On Thursday, the Campaign for Greater Buffalo announced it has succeeded in getting a temporary restraining order pending a hearing next Wednesday in New York State Supreme Court.
