![Greentopia Festival gets ready to kick off this weekend. Workers in the High Falls neighborhood were invited to a picnic lunch today on the newly 'green' Commercial Street. But what the hell is that in the sky? [PHOTO: VJ Ortiz]](https://www.rochestersubway.com/images/photos/rochester-greentopia-ufo-sighting.jpg?ref=senseofplace.dev)
Have you seen this photo? It was posted yesterday on Reconnect Rochester's site
. The organizers of the Greentopia Festival turned Commercial Street (in High Falls) into "green" space and hosted a lunch picnic for workers in the neighborhood. As if that weren't strange enough... Then I looked a little closer at the photo. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT IN THE SKY?!?
I took the liberty of digitally enhancing the area of the photo that caught my eye. Tell me this isn't the least bit curious...
By the way, Reconnect Rochester also announced a "Critical Mass Transit Day"
to take place on the 3rd Thursday of October and they're going to be giving away free RTS day passes at Greentopia. Hmmm. Nice.
