It’s been said that where art flourishes, so does economic development. The City of Rochester has plans to make this a reality in some of the downtown neighborhoods surrounding East Main Street. And one of the many starting points is a new residential complex for local artists.

On this segment on Need to Know we’ll get an inside look at the plans and what’s happening right now with this downtown redevelopment effort. Guests joining the conversation include: Rochester City Councilmember Elaine Spaull, Executive Vice President at Conifer Realty Andy Crossed, and Senior Community Housing Planner for the City of Rochester Kevin Kelley.
