The Rochester Landmarks Poster, by Richard Margolis

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 March 04, 2013 and can be found here.

   When I first moved to Rochester's Swillburg neighborhood thirteen years ago, my favorite place to eat was Highland Park Diner. I remember this     Rochester Landmarks poster    , by Richard Margolis, hung over one of the booths there. I used to stare and study those landmarks all the while shoveling Aunt Bee's Homestyle Meatloaf into my face. Ah, my first taste of Rochester. Today I own that poster, and I've now been to all but one of the 38 landmarks on it. It's a great feeling!

Now you can get your hands on a copy of this Landmark poster from the     RochesterSubway.com Gift Shop    , and start checking them off your list too. Can you name all 38 landmarks? No peeking! The answers are after the jump...
