WELCOME TO INSIDE DOWNTOWN 2014
I would like to welcome you to The Landmark Society of Western New York’s annual Inside Downtown Tour! Downtown Rochester is on the rise. You will see, firsthand, the creative and adaptive use of historic buildings on this tour. These historic buildings have been transformed, and have quite vividly begun a greater transformation of downtown, along with the neighborhoods and districts surrounding downtown. Historic buildings that were once labeled as “too far gone” or “too deteriorated” are now homes and businesses that provide a clear and undeniable impact on our region’s quality of life and economic growth. You will also get a glimpse of some historic spaces still “in the rough,” including the famed Sibley’s Tea Room, waiting
to be rehabilitated as part of the massive Sibley Building rehabilitation, a project of this year’s title sponsor, Winn Development. And, you will see some incredible and awe-inspiring spaces with some of the best downtown views our city has to offer. This year’s tour offers a unique opportunity to see historic spaces redefined, but it also offers the opportunity to contemplate the past and consider how that past helps define our future. Urban living and commercial development are crucial to a strong local economy – and not only for a city’s urban core. A strong urban center acts as the anchor for an entire region’s economy. The Landmark Society of Western New York could not be more thrilled with downtown Rochester’s revival. It is

FAQ’S
You might not know much about us. Or, maybe you’ve come on the house tour, seen our website or our magazine Landmarks, or noticed a quote from one of us in the newspaper when building preservation issues come up. But you’re still not sure – so here are the Frequently Asked Questions, answered at last!
What is The Landmark Society? We are a private, nonprofit, membership based organization that has been affecting Rochester’s community since 1937. “Private” means we are not funded directly by the government, nonprofit means that everything we earn goes to support our advocacy and education activities, and membership based means member dues provide a major portion of our revenue.
1937 – Are you really that old? Yes! We’re older than the country-wide organization, the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Rochester has a great history of supporting historic preservation.
Can Anyone Join?
Yes – we welcome and depend on all sorts of members, from those who want to get involved hands on, to those who are simply happy to support our mission and preservation activities. We even have a new group called the YUPs – Young Urban Professionals (don’t miss their s’mores bar at St Joseph’s Park on Saturday during the tour!)
Mission?
Our mission is to protect the unique architectural heritage of our region and promote preservation and planning practices that foster healthy, livable, and sustainable communities.
How do you do that?
(taking a deep breath:) We help to foster adaptive reuse of older buildings, host an annual preservation conference, advise homeowners about rehabilitation, conduct historic resource surveys and publish award winning publications. We train and inform local government on urban planning and design strategies, and we champion the value of embodied energy in a green environment. We are stewards of over 37 properties via covenants as well as operating the Stone-Tolan House Historic Site and the historic Ellwanger Garden. We offer a host of other events besides the house tour to inform and delight participants.
Wow. Does it really make a difference?
Yes! Abandonment of architectural treasures is all too common in many places, but here in Rochester we helped achieve the preservation of East Avenue, Mt. Hope, Corn Hill and many other beautiful neighborhoods. We even successfully lobbied in the 1960’s to change inappropriate zoning and helped create upstate New York’s first ordinance protecting historic buildings. Now, we identify and protect the next wave of historic resources of the recent past, as well as advocating for tax credits.
RAFFLE! 4 | INSIDE DOWNTOWN TOUR GUIDE 2014
We work to help our community understand that historic preservation is planning, not freezing buildings in a past time zone. It’s about wise use of resources, improving the local economy and community identity, and enjoying and understanding how our environment affects our quality of life.
How can I find out more?
Visit our website at www.landmarksociety. org ; sign up for our weekly emailed newsletter, or – join us! We’d love to have you as part of the team at whatever level works for you. There’s information and a special offer at the tour headquarters.

THE
LIBERTY POLE For some Rochesterians, this massive sculpture may only come to mind when it is strung with lights to serve as a faux Christmas tree decoration. But it’s so much more! A site for protest. A liberty pole is a long-standing American tradition of political protest and celebration. Before and during the American Revolution wooden poles serving as flag poles or for display of political sentiments were often erected in town squares. English authorities would periodically destroy them - leading to violent struggles with the “Sons of Liberty.” A place for patriotic tribute. After the war, poles were erected in communities to commemorate those struggles and celebrate patriotic pride. Rochester’s first
The Liberty Pole.
Liberty Pole was built on this same spot in 1846, and served as the site of many Independence Day celebrations. When a storm loosened its moorings it was dismantled, and citizens raised $150 to replace it. The new one went up in 1860, standing proudly at 102 feet tall with a large wooden ball and weather vane. The new Liberty Pole remained as a place for social gatherings until Christmas Day 1889, when it crashed in a violent wind storm. A significant public art installation. For 76 years the triangle shaped lot remained “pole-less” and small buildings filled the space. In the 1960’s city authorities decided to reclaim the space and a statewide design competition was launched. Rochester architect James H. Johnson (designer of the “mushroom house” in Perinton) won, and the current Liberty
Pole completed in 1965. The 190-foothigh stainless steel structure paid tribute to the past traditions, while boldly proclaiming the modern age in its style. As with most art, it attracted its share of vocal fans and detractors. Peace and protest. Since its erection, the Liberty Pole has seen echoes of both sides of its heritage. True to its origins, the location has seen its share of late 20th and early 21st century protests, from the Vietnam War era to current day. We’ve also gathered there as a community to celebrate the lighting of the pole in its holiday role, to enjoy musical performances, and to simply admire – or complain – about this unique edifice, anchoring the Inside Downtown Tour neighborhood.

McCord (1874-1953) trained at both Rochester’s Mechanics Institute and the Ecole es Beaux Arts in Paris. The façade was the only part of the building that had a distinctive “style” - as the side wall (east elevation) is very plain. When built & up into the 1980s, there were elegant wrought iron railings (2nd story) and a unique arched canopy (with brackets) that made it look almost Beaux Arts/French, like something you'd see in NYC on Fifth Avenue.

Architectural Style: Mid-century Modern
Look on the Exterior: The original design of the distinctive eleven story tower plus the open corner plaza and double height glass walled banking hall. The tower is distinguished by the ten hexagonal piloti (architecturally expressed columns, upon which a building is set above the ground) that allow the tower to seemingly float above the plaza. The piloti are set off by a single mass of polished black granite that contains an exit stair and appears, at first, to be the only point of contact with the ground. The tower is crowned by a corrugated concrete trough roof, which sits upon the walls of glass of the Penthouse, much like the banking hall below. The banking hall with its corrugated concrete trough roof set atop the two part composition of glass curtain wall and solid brick walls is a distinctive expression of mid-century modern design. You’ll enjoy knowing: One East Avenue was built for Security Trust Company, a large Rochester based bank, which began in 1892 and eventually became a subsidiary of Bank of America. When Security Trust desired to construct their new “Security East” office, they hired architect, William F. Cann for his renown modern design sense “to give Rochester something different, functional, yet progressive in a bank building” as described in a 1964 news article during the building’s construction. Several of Cann’s strikingly modern bank designs across the country have begun to be recognized and preserved for their importance to high style mid-century modern design. The most famous of William Cann’s designs, seen across the country, were the distinctive cross gabled, orange roofed Howard Johnson motor lodge registration buildings. The 130 foot long wall mural in the banking hall was commissioned from John C. Menihan (1908-1992) as part of the original design. Menihan was a Rochesterian who rose to national recognition for the series of large high relief murals he designed for a number of local companies including Xerox and R. T. French, of which the mural at One East Avenue is the largest. The mural, an abstract CONTINUES ON PAGE 8 LANDMARKSOCIETY.ORG | 7

Johnson, elaborated further on Rochester’s desire for modern design in 1965, one year after construction was completed on One East Avenue. Don’t Miss on the Inside: Be sure to catch a glimpse through the banking hall doors of the impressive John Menihan mural before or after your visit to the Penthouse. The Penthouse is an impressive space on several fronts. You eyes are arrested by the long expanse of space defined by the rhythm of the horizontal ribbons of ceiling lighting grilles and plaster of the corrugated trough roof which are coordinated with the vertical mullions of the floor to ceiling glass walls. It is not long before your eyes turn from the interior to the expansive 270 degree view of downtown Rochester, with an exterior roof terrace beckoning you to walk out and contemplate the sites, sounds, and lights of the city.

Can you see a small concrete plaque, just above the fifth floor? Look to the right of the door where you will enter. It’s not easy to see that the building is named after the Filon family. You’ll enjoy knowing: Why the Filon family? When a disastrous fire destroyed the original store down the street, Sibley’s wanted to rebuild at this site. They were able to acquire all of the land except one parcel – owned by Michael Filon. Negotiations finally settled on the sale, with the stipulation of naming the building after the landowner. We’re not sure how the family felt about the plaque, visible from only a few spots. But if you visit Mt. Hope Cemetery, you will discover that the Filon family monument cannot be missed – it’s one of the largest and most expensive on the grounds. Sibley’s was a meeting place for generations. Today, Winn Development is advancing their vision of returning it to that role again, with retail, apartments, restaurants and more. Don’t miss on the inside: You will tour multiple areas here, including the former tea room restaurant in the retail building and the Winn Development offices in the tower building. Due to the nature of some areas under restoration, plan on a wait time to access the upper floors.

You’ll enjoy knowing: Built in 1843 by German immigrants, a disastrous 1974 fire destroyed it. This was the “mother church” for nine other German Catholic parishes in our area. The original church campus included a rectory, convent, school and large orphanage, as well as a walled garden. In the mid-20th century, a new school (now The College at Brockport) was built and featured business courses for high school-aged girls. After the 1974 fire, community leaders rallied to restore this irreplaceable feature of the Rochester cityscape. The Landmark Society of Western New York became the owner and developed the park with courtyard and fountain in 1980. Subsequent street realignments resulted in Franklin Street’s removal in front of the building and a

Listed in the State and National Registers of Historic Places, this is the only early-20th-century industrial building to survive in this area. Note the well-articulated Renaissance Revival exterior design, paired windows, and corbelled cornice. You’ll enjoy knowing: The Kirsteins, who founded the Shur-On Optical Company, had other successful members in their family, including a son who became president of Filene’s Department Store in Boston and a grandson, Rochester native Lincoln Kirstein, who was a renowned artist, writer, art connoisseur and cultural figure in NYC during the mid-late 20th century.

Look on the exterior: The main façade facing Franklin Street is rich in architectural detailing. Note the round arches, limestone trim, and square towers with tile roofs (the tall spires were removed from the towers in 1929). The exterior of the church was substantially renovated by Gordon & Kaelber during the 1929 construction of the Education Building/ Parish House, during which time much of the stone embellishment typical of the German “Rundbogenstil” version of Romanesque Revival design was removed from the 1870s church building. You’ll enjoy knowing: Originally founded by German Protestants in 1832, this congregation was formally organized as the “Vereinigte Evangelishce Kirche” or United Evangelical Church.
