2010 Map of Rochester East

About this map

Irondequoit Bay and its complex shoreline dominate the eastern portion of this Monroe County landscape, where residential growth meets the waters of Lake Ontario. The terrain is shaped by the Genesee River valley to the west, home to sprawling institutions like the University of Rochester and Brockport State University. Notable for its many historic lakeside communities, the area includes Sea Breeze, Point Pleasant, and Glen Haven, which reflect a long history of recreation and maritime industry. Large burial grounds, including the historic Mount Hope Cemetery and Riverside Cemetery, provide significant genealogical landmarks. Transport corridors like the Frederick Douglass-Susan B. Anthony Memorial Bridge and the Irondequoit Bay Bridge facilitate modern movement across the river and bay, while natural high points like Cobbs Hill and Pinnacle Hill offer distinct topographical relief.
