LOST ROCHESTER In a growing community it is inevitable to see the drop of a wreckers ball, knocking down a building and a piece of history. Not only are structures leveled, but so too are the memories associated with those buildings. Rochester has seen its share of demolition. Buildings are razed when they fall into disuse or disrepair, they are razed when they cannot be adapted for reasonable reuse and often times they are razed in the name of progress: so that structures deemed bigger and better can be built. This pathfinder will explore some significant local buildings that have been demolished: buildings that were landmarks to former generations, buildings that are part of a lost Rochester.
