Parks & Gardens of Rochester: The city is lucky enough to be home to no less than 7 beautiful parks designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the “father of modern landscaping” and creator of New York’s Central Park. 2022 marked the 200th anniversary of his birth, 144 years after Rochester’s first Parks Commission hired him to turn donated land into an urban park system. He designed what he called an “emerald necklace” of parks and gardens along the Genesee River, from the Erie Canal to Lake Ontario. Experience his work on our Parks and Gardens Rochester tour!
