Rochester
Rochester’s factories, downtown businesses and electric railway appear in historical photographs from the late 1800s and early 1900s. The episode includes the Western Knitting Mills, paper mill and Detroit United Railway connections.
Views of the Parke, Davis & Co. farm, the beet-sugar venture and the Hotel St. James show other parts of the city’s economy. This town-wide account is separate from the short Rochester ski-jump and dry-house episodes.
