Looking downstream from the Pont de Rennes bridge. This is where I noticed those two buildings next to RG&E. It turns out that they are the old city garbage facility and incinerator. They've been closed for years, of course.

The absence of period windows on this wall point to the building that Jimmy Mac's is currently in was part of a group of buildings. Bee Bee Station now occupies most of where those other buildings would have been.

This is one of two buildings adjacent to RG&'s property, alongside the river. There were no markings I could see. I later discovered these to be the old city garbage facilty and incinerator.

The Parazin Building in Brown's Race. Although there have been a number of attempts to renovate this building in the past, this latest attempt seems to be making headway.

Snow in Rochester

Yahoo finally snow. Now this is Rochester in December. Weeeee - from Brightkite

RG&E's unused Beebee Station. It was a coal-fired plant but never modernized to cut emissions. It looks like a perfect place to make creepy movies.

ok, the snow can stop now...

The clouds were dark but didn't completely cover the sky. I thought I was okay but I got caught by the rain not long after I took this.

The Rochester Waterworks once housed the Holley high-pressure water system that was used exclusively to feed fire hydrants downtown.

Coal cars that went too far ended up here. This is really the only piece of track left from the line that fed Beebee Station.

The old Rochester garbage facility is falling apart. The tree growing out of the roof has damaged the bricks in this corner.
