This article was scraped from Rochester Subway. This is a blog about Rochester history and urbanism has not been published since 2017. The current owners are now publishing link spam which made me want to preserve this history.. The original article was published June 22, 2011 and can be found here.
Check this out. This photo is for real - absolutely no Photoshop involved here. You're looking at the Kodak building to the right, and smack dab in the middle of the big bad City of Rochester... grazing deer. I've heard of Urban Greening before but come on.
I snapped the above shot tonight--probably 8:30pm or so--as I was heading home after a very fun trip on the Mary Jemison
river boat with Rochester Young Professionals
. And just three blocks south of where this scene unfolded is the urban jungle below...
My guess is the 3 little guys (or gals) followed the Genesee River gorge from the north. They'll probably head back tonight after dining downtown. Who knows, maybe they'll take the #1 Lake Ave bus.
