Local History Walking Tour: High Falls Historic District In-Person

Explore one of the city's oldest areas and learn how early settlers harnessed the power of the mighty Genesee River to run the mills and factories that created The Flour City and put Rochester on the map as an American boomtown. Meet at the corner of State Street and Commercial Street for this 1-mile-long tour.

 

*In case of inclement weather, tour may be canceled
