  • Appendix B the History of Rochester
    Appendix The History of B Rochester Appendix B | The History of ROchester DRAFT - ROCHESTER 2034 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN B-1 The History of Rochester Early History 1803 A 100-acre tract in Western New York along the Genesee river was purchased by Col. Nathanial Rochester, Maj. Charles Carroll, and Col. William Fitzhugh, Jr. 1817 The Village of Rochesterville was formally established along the Genesee River, from which the City of Rochester would grow. 1823 Connected via roads, the river, and rail lines, by 1823, the Rochesterville village was a booming agricultural, milling, and industrial center, fueled by the opening of the Erie Canal. 1834 In 1834, with a population hovering at around 10,000 people, Rochester was incorporated as a city. 1838 By 1838, numerous flour mills were in operation in the Browns Race district, powered by the Genesee River’s mighty High Falls waterfall. Rochester soon became the largest producer of flour in the United States and earned its nickname, the “Flour City.” The population of Rochester continued to increase, attracting immigrants and settlers eager to put down roots in the bustling city. The rapid growth earned Rochester the distinction of being America’s first “boom town”. 1850S As the production of flour shifted to westward cities in the 1850s, Rochester’s economy was in a phase of transition. Nursery and seed businesses were thriving and beginning to dominate the local economy, rendering Rochester its second nickname, the “Flower City.” This new identity was enhanced by George Ellwanger and Patrick Barry, the city’s most influential horticulturalists, who cultivated over 500 acres of land into the Mount Hope Nursery.
