East Avenue

Street sign

East Avenue runs from Rochester's city center, south east out of the city, and after a bend it ends up at Nazareth College. East Ave is considered kind of a border between the Park Ave Area and the nearby Neighborhood of the Arts. Bars, restaurants, and shops line the street.

East Avenue as Route 96

NY State Route 96, like East Avenue, begins at East Main Street in the city and follows East Avenue until it enters Pittsford as Main Street just past Nazareth College.

As it exits the city at the Brighton town line, NY 96 passes through the Can of Worms, connects with the western terminus of Route 441 and Elmwood Avenue near I490. The road parallels I490 and branches at a Y intersection with Fairport Road (Route 31F) before it heads into Pittsford.

See Route 96 for details and information beyond East Avenue.
