Walking Tour: Innovation and Adaptation: Reinventing Rochester's 6th Ward *offsite tour
Rochester’s historic 6th Ward was both a center of education and industry. Home to the University of Rochester’s onetime campus and a former factory complex now known as Village Gate Square, the neighborhood served as both an intellectual and industrial incubator from the 1870s to the 1970s. Today, with both the University and the manufacturing base long gone, it has become a center for adaptive reuse at the core of the thriving residential and commercial area now known as the Neighborhood of the Arts. Meet in the courtyard of Village Gate Square for this 1.1-mile OFFSITE tour.
*In case of inclement weather, tour may be canceled
Registration is strongly recommended but not required.
Presented by the Local History & Genealogy Division of the Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County and sponsored by Fleet Feet.
