Rochester owes much to those who made it the exceptional andunique city it has become. Many of the civic, commercial, industrial, and entertainment leaders who brought fame and prosperity to the city are saluted in Rochester Leaders and Their Legacies. A gallery of rare photographs reveals the images of the founders and their legacies: McCurdy's, McFarlin's, Edwards, and Sibley's department stores; important businesses and products; and entertainment venues and memories. Here are glimpses of the nursery industry, Erie Canal, trolley days, downtown nightspots, theater performers, and recollections of unusual events, from fires and floods to the huge Elks Street Fair of 1899.
