2016 Map of Rochester West

About this map

The Erie Canal cuts a distinctive diagonal path across this western Rochester landscape, separating the suburban growth of North Gates and Greece from the industrial and residential core of the city. The Genesee River forms the eastern boundary, featuring Seth Green Island and the historic Kings Landing Cem. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern transportation infrastructure that defines the region, from the extensive runways of the Greater Rochester International Airport to the Genesee & Wyoming RR corridor. Local history is anchored by numerous memorial sites, including the expansive Holy Sepulchre Cem and Beth Hamedresh Hagodel Cem. The map tracks the shift from established city neighborhoods like Otis and Lincoln Park to the developing residential tracts of West Greece and South Greece, providing a clear record of the area's contemporary geography and civic boundaries.
