Rochester, NY

Our last stop on this epic sabbatical road trip - Rochester, NY. It feels fitting to end in one of the first places to remove part of the inner loop of highway in the city. The highway section was filled in with dirt from Lake Ontario and on top have built bike lanes, housing, businesses and a museum. An example of investing back into the city, and the project has revealed the removal has not made traffic any worse. I’m hopeful for the future as more cities across the county consider removing their highways. There’s so many more cities in the Yellow Book for me to photograph including throughout the Midwest, and East. For now though, I will be spending the summer working through all photographs made over the past 3 months.
