After Downtown ROCs On Andrews St

Our Impact

Before & After

Downtown Rochester is a pretty cool place. But its potential is limitless!

Where some see blight, we see an opportunity to create beauty.

Where others see decay, we see the potential to do something spectacular.

Whether it's a worn-out bench, an empty tree well, or just a nondescript street pole, every space represents a blank slate.

A canvas on which to create...

...And a chance to do something great!

As you'll see below, we document the impact of these projects, whether small and large, with before-and-after pictures.

We share these results proudly in the hopes that they will inspire others.

And as our way of letting folks know that...

Downtown ROCs was here!
