It looks like they will use the vacant stadium(Rochester Community Sports Complex) according to their website. For those not familiar: https://rocwiki.org/Rochester_Community_Sports_Complex

Everyone complains about the location. You can't move the stadium, but you can locate it on a major street. All that is needed would be to extend Dewey Ave south, to connect to Broad St.

West Broad Street isn't exactly some little known side street, but I think that parking nearby, was an issue in the past. But then again, this discussion seems familiar....

If you look at how things are oriented currently, Broad st is really just a downtown st that everyone knows, but they know it in regards to like the War Memorial, etc. Take out that dog leg and it will work so much better, and at very little cost

A question in the same vein of the topic, but are the Rochester Lancers still around and if so, where do they play?

Also, couldn’t they play at the Wegmans Sports Complex at Aquinas?

Possibly, but when you have a fairly new, modern, barely used stadium, why go elsewhere?

^True...I was curious, because I know the location of the stadium has been a deterrent in the past. To be honest, I think Rochester should have gotten an MLS team, but that is another story.
