East Rochester Sidewalk Construction & Replacement Program

Public Information Meeting

As you are aware, East Rochester is a walking school district which has a network of sidewalks 
and crosswalks to accommodate safe access to the East Rochester K-8 and High School 
campus. The Town/Village of East Rochester was awarded a federal grant to construct and 
improve safe sidewalk access to the school. The majority of the proposed work will take place 
within the road Right-of-Way. The disturbed areas will be restored upon completion of the 
sidewalk improvements. Work is scheduled to begin this summer after bids are received. 

On Tuesday February 27th, 2024 the Town/Village of East Rochester and MRB Group will 
be hosting an informal Public Information Meeting. The meeting is open to residents to stop 
in at any time between 5:30pm to 8:00pm to ask questions with regards to the scope of the 
project. 

The meeting will be held in the Jean Daniel Community Center located on the 1st floor 
of the Eyer Building (317 Main Street, East Rochester, NY 14445). 

Please contact our engineer, Tom Fromberger at MRB Group (585-381-9250) if you 
should have any questions or concerns.

Attached is an overall map showing the proposed work areas. 


Sincerely, 
Martin G. D’Ambrose

In 1916, the first park in our community was dedicated. Once a heavily forested swampy area named Vanderbilt Park, the land had been purchased by Kate Gleason. Kate brought in workers from her father's company, Gleason Works, to excavate and clear out the area. The park was named after Edmund Lyon, a friend of Kate Gleason's and a founder of our village. At the top of the hill on the corner of Main and East Ivy Streets a flagpole was erected on the highest elevation in East Rochester.

During the years following World War I, community members felt a memorial was needed to honor our soldiers. The Ladies’ Auxiliary of Jules Verne Fish Post, Ame
