Rochester, New York

Jason Haremza

Known as ‘The Young Lion of the West’ during its period as America’s first boomtown, early Rochester saw notable visitors from the British Navy, a French general, a Canadian patriot, and an American President-elect. Learn about these folks and other observations of the urban landscape on a Sunday stroll with urbanist, WNY native, sometime Torontonian, and adopted Rochesterian, Jason Haremza.
