To the left, Court Street Bridge has railroad terminals on either side of the Genesee: on this side, the Lehigh Valley (still standing today as Dinosaur Bar B Que restaurant); on the far side the Erie Railroad. The sign at near right for the \"People\'s Safety Show\" probably dates the photo to 1914, advertising an exposition on worker safety at the Rochester Convention Center.';

In the postcard we see travelers on the Rochester & Suburban Railway debarking upon company land, anticipating various concessions and by the time of this photograph several rides--including carousels and a figure-eight roller coaster.
In 1920 Sea Breeze built its famous wooden \"Jack Rabbit\" roller coaster, currently the second-oldest one in the US. Through financial challenges, new owners, destructive fires, and social change it has managed to remain open and share its pleasures with new generations.';

var str = 'At the time of this photograph in the early 1900s, Rochester\'s public market had been in operation for more than seventy years. Initially located on Main Street just west of the Genesee River, it opened in 1827 and then moved to its current location on Union Street in 1905. Thus, the postcard depicts a modern facility supplied by farmers who have traveled via horse and wagon. It wasn\'t until 1913 that the City of Rochester allowed farmers to sell directly to the public, so this scene is best appreciated as a brokers\' market.
In the years since, it has remained viable despite the emergence of huge (suburban) grocery chains that doomed public markets in other cities. Today, an estimated 2.4 million people visit the market annually, perhaps 40,000 on a busy Saturday. It remains one of the most economically and culturally diverse locations in the Rochester metropolitan area, and recently has undergone renovations such that a new outdoor shed closely resembles the one pictured on this postcard.';

Five miles downstream from here, the Genesee River empties into Lake Ontario at Charlotte, and the base of the falls has been a major spawning ground for salmon and lake trout until non-native fish like the alewife reduced their numbers. <a href="https://openvalley.org/exhibits/show/seth-green--home-waters">The fisherman Seth Green</a> ran a large commercial operation nearby in the lower gorge; ironically, his success also contributed to declining stocks and led to his experiments in pisciculture and eventually a fish hatchery located in Caledonia, NY. <br /><br />At the time of this photograph, an extensive engineering project recently had constructed Rochester Gas & Electric's Hydro Station #15--a portion of which is shown at left--and transformed the falls themselves. An 80-foot long concrete facing raised the falls to a height of 96 feet and created an intake dam 17 feet in depth. The building at right is a remaining part of the settlement called McCrackenville, chartered in 1821 and best known as an industrial site: flour and paper milling, carpet-making, furniture manufacture, a tannery. In 1850 the city of Rochester annexed the land as part of its plans for residential development along Lake Avenue; eventually it was remade as Lower Falls Park, from which visitors have a spectacular view of the gorge.

In 1917, one of the old dams was demolished to build a new moveable one, whose primary function now was to channel water through a tunnel--20 feet in diameter, 1500 feet long--to a generating station located at the base of Lower Falls.
That dam project may cause the \"Middle Falls\" to lose its designation as a waterfall, considered an \"historical\" one instead.';

Following the success of George Eastman's introduction of affordable cameras, the company's manufacturing infrastructure expanded rapidly. Postcard announces Rochester company as the "largest industry of its kind in the world." At its height in the mid-1960s, Kodak Park was comprised of 1,300 acres on a parcel four miles long, and housed 140 manufacturing buildings. At this location Kodak manufactured film, photographic paper, processing chemicals, magnetic tape, and some 4,000 other "research chemicals." 20,000 employees worked there, so the company's description of Kodak Park as "virtually a city within a city" was justified. <br /><br />As a consequence of its chemical production, Kodak Park also had an outsized ecological footprint--one that became increasingly public by the 1980s in the wake of Love Canal. Dioxin, methylene chloride, and many other hazardous wastes led to its status as (by far) the largest polluter in Western New York. Between 1974 and 2007, Kodak secretly operated a small nuclear reactor; in 2013 it was revealed that the company had buried radioactive waste at the western edge of this complex. The two large smokestacks at the photo's center were part of a coal-fired electrical plant that burned perhaps 600,000 tons of coal per year generting up to 200 megawatts--the equivalent of a city of 200,000. In 2018, one of only three such plants in New York state, converted to natural gas (also a fossil fuel). <br /><br />Several buildings were demolished, the plot of land was renamed Eastman Business Park, and its chemical reckoning continues.<br /><br />Works Consulted: Eastman Kodak, <em>The Kodak Park Works</em><em>: Where Kodak Film, Papers, and Chemicals are Made</em> (1964)

var str = 'At nearly 100 feet in height, the \"High Falls\" were a determining factor in the location of Rochester. Mills took advantage of the drop and the Genesee River\'s water flow in the form of mills, beginning in 1807 and especially in the years following construction of Brown\'s Race--which enabled numerous mills to operate along the western banks. Less than a mile upriver, the Erie Canal was routed so as to pass near this important manufacturing and milling location. At one point Rochester was milling more than 500,000 barrels of wheat flour per year before the wheat midge drastically curtailed production in the Genesee Valley.
In the postcard, at left of the falls is Rochester Gas and Electric\'s Hydro Station #4 (since abandoned), and crossing the river is a New York Central Railroad viaduct. At right is the Gorsline Building, reconstructed in 1888 as a shoe factory after a major fire that killed perhaps 35 workers. Structural problems nearly led to its demolition, but it was partially demolished and renovated during the late 1990s for use as office space.';

var str = 'South Park, later taking its current name of Genesee Valley Park, was one of the last designed by the landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted prior to his retirement. Work began in 1888, and in 1893 he suggested keeping a flock of sheep on its west side to evoke a pastoral mood and to keep the grass mowed. Flocks of sheep weren\'t uncommon at the time; the Sheep Field in Olmsted\'s central park started the trend in 1863, but the also were grazed in Brooklyn\'s Prospect Park, Franklin Park in Boston, Druid Hill Park in Baltimore, and Washington Park in Chicago.
The sheep didn\'t remain for long, however, because in 1899 the pasture was converted into a golf course that still is in operation today alongside the Genesee River.';
