BUT, it doesn't have a lake, beaches, a harbor, a major navigable river and a direct connection (within it's boundary) to another country a massive medical campus. All of which, no other city in the state can claim!
It also doesn't have the architecture to the extent that Buffalo has (among other things. But judging by your other narrow minded 'forget the past, tear everything down' posts, that doesn't seem to matter to you.
BTW, there is a major grocery store just outside the downtown core in Buffalo.
Rochester doesn't have a beach, a lake, a "massive medical campus"? Wow your ignorance on Rochester and your Buffalo delusion is amusing.
Apparently you've never heard of the UofR medical program? Including being affiliated with the only heart transplant hospital outside of NYC? (Strong Memorial Hosptal). Which is also ranked 5th in NY? Where's Buffalo's hospital on that ranking which is part of its "massive medical campus"? Best Hospitals in New York | US News Best Hospitals
The CITY of Rochester proper does not have a beach but, extends north around those northern suburbs to water front property. The maps I have do not show that clearly as Ironodquoit appears to encompass everything directly north of the city. Considering the distance from the center core, it might as well just be considered a outer suburb.
As far as Strong Memorial, it's a single hospital is it not? Not a number of separate medical facilities, specifically 150 that are here.
Strong is well known, but ranking was not a subject or issue and was not brought up.
So other than the lake & beach, the rest still stands and I should of included access for Great Lakes 'lakers'!

Come to think of it, the statement still stand since it wasn't a list of choices, it was a complete list that includes what I posted.
Rochester having access to the lake and a beach are only two, but that is apparently too complicated for you to understand.

So the amusing part is YOUR statement since YOU are the delusional one.

Would you stop repeating false information about something you obviously have no clue about. The city PROPER does have 2 beaches. I don't know why you keep repeating that false statement that it doesn't. Both Charlotte Beach and Durand Eastman Beach are in the city proper. Why do you think they are in the "burbs"? Pull up a map and take a look if you can't understand.
Secondly, no, the UofR medical group is not just one hospital;. the University of Rochester which runs Strong Memorial Hospital, runs immediate care and has affiliations with hospitals all over the Rochester metro.
Before you keep sticking your foot in your mouth, you might want to read up on the UofR medical program. Because it's considered an elite program which is nationally ranked and also ranked much higher than Buffalo's.

Here's a google map for you videobruce. The city of Rochester extends up Lake Ave to Ontario Park Beach (Charlotte Beach). The city limits also extend up Culver rd to Lake Shore Blvd. Rochester taxes pay for the upkeep and city resources manage these beaches because they reside in the city proper. And the city has a very small area (only 35 sq. miles). So don't try to spin this as them being "so far" from the city core. It's a couple of miles from downtown. Not tens of miles. Which shouldn't mean anything really as it is.

1. Proper=the immediate downtown core, not a peninsula that extends out going thru a park
2. I made no reference to the suburbs,
3. I have more than one "map",
4. Again, it was a complete list ,not a list of choices? Do you NOT understand that? Rochestre does not have ALL SIX of those items I listed.
5. I refereed to a single "campus" all grouped together, not a number of facilities scattered all over the city.
Do I need to draw you a picture? My foot is not in my mouth, you don't understand the kings english.

Nice map DB, I like how the city grabbed slivers of land over the years to incorporate assets into it's boundaries. Of course I punched in Buffalo and found that their are no beaches within the city limits as all the waterfront boarders industrial sites or what would be classified as a commercial waterway, not a place I would want to be swimming.
All of the area shown in these two screen shots are all public, lake front access except for one small peninsula that has an elevator (not grain). Other than that, NONE of it is "industrial". Areas that were industrial have been cleaned up. Most of the actual shoreline is protected by rocks to prevent shore erosion.
The areas in red are sandy beaches, thou not intended for swimming (I never eluded to that).
As far as the one "technical" part of the city, far removed from the city via a single road, you are still going thru a suburb to get to it. The other, Charlotte, is also removed, thou "techinically" within city limits.
