SOLD OUT!!! City Beautiful–Rochester 1911 & Rochester 2034

  • Olmsted Lodge 171 Reservoir Avenue Rochester, NY, 14620 United States (map)

Join Highland Park Conservancy and representatives from the offices of the City Historian and City Planning as they compare A City Plan for Rochester 1911 and Rochester 2034!

A City Plan for Rochester 1911 was developed by Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. and Arnold Brunner in the midst of a "City Beautiful Movement" across the country. Bicycle ownership peaked at this time; the plan included making roads accessible for all and safeguarding public welfare while preserving aesthetics. Rochester 2034 is a 15-year comprehensive plan to improve our community leading up to its 200th birthday. The plan covers a wide variety of topics, from housing and transportation to economic growth and historic preservation. Each topic includes goals and strategies that are aligned with an overarching community vision and set of guiding principles.
