Landmark Society

Identifies Five Finger Lakes Properties to Revitalize

The Landmark Society of Western New York announced its 2022-23 Five to Revive – a list that identifies opportunities for targeted, strategic revitalization.

In 2013, The Landmark Society launched the Five to Revive program to call attention to five properties in Western New York that are in need of investment. The rehabilitation of these significant historic properties that include buildings, landscapes or structures can become catalytic projects for the neighborhoods and communities that surround them.

“Each year, these five properties become priority projects for Landmark Society staff and programs as we work collaboratively with owners, municipal officials, and developers to facilitate investment and foster rehabilitation, and carry out our mission to protect the region’s unique architectural heritage,” said Tom Castelein, chair of The Landmark Society Five to Revive Committee.

The five sites are: Hotel Cadillac in the City of Rochester, Monroe County; Mt. Hope Cemetery’s Old Chapel in the City of Rochester, Monroe County; Urban Tree Canopy in the City of Rochester, Monroe County; Willard State Hospital in the Towns of Romulus and Ovid, Seneca County; and the John Wenrich Cabin at Wesley Hill Nature Preserve in the Towns of Richmond and South Bristol, Ontario County.

March 11-12…Moulin D’Paris

Armand has moved to Paris to study poetry and is staying with his old friend Francois, who is a connoisseur of Paris’ nightlife. The best way to introduce Armand to this exciting world is to take him to Paris’ hottest nightclub. The minute you step inside there are no boundaries to the color, music, sensuous characters, and timeless experiences. Armand is thrilled by all of this until he sets his eyes on Lisette, the club’s beautiful star. Being naive and hopelessly in love, he begins a painful education into the realities behind the cabaret’s stage. Saturday, March 11 – 7 p.m. Sunday, March 12 – 2 p.m.
