East End site to become affordable housing after years of delay

Rochester City Council approved selling 125 Charlotte Street to a local developer, who plans to build 11 affordable townhouses on the site. The small green space, part of the city’s long-running Inner Loop redevelopment effort, had remained undeveloped for years. The decision faced community opposition, including protests and petitions—one with over 1,000 signatures—aimed at preserving the green space.
