Architecture in the Wild: Inner Loop Leftovers

Love old buildings but don’t know a Queen Anne from a Dutch Colonial? The Landmark Society’s Young Urban Preservationists (YUPs for short) are taking you out onto the streets to explore Rochester’s architectural history in its natural setting. In this 2-hour outdoor class, we’ll walk some of the streets around the southeast section of the Inner Loop that were spared from demolition. You'll learn the names of 19th- and 20th-century architectural styles; some basic architectural terminology; and how to approximately date the buildings you see every day. Don't let the title of this class fool you, there are lots of hidden gems amongst these Urban Renewal "leftovers."
