Kodak Headquarters

Kodak Tower was built in 1916. At 16 stories, it was the tallest building in Rochester. When the design of Times Square was released, George Eastman added three additional floors and a spire in order to maintain the status of tallest building.

Currently the corporate headquarters of Eastman Kodak, located on State Street, near High Falls.

Every year, a pair of Peregrine Falcons nest in a box located in the spire. Kodak maintains a webcam (several, actually) in the nest box to chronicle the lives of the Falcons.

There appears to be a lot of crime in this area, though, and I had co-workers who had their cars broken into in the parking lot (which Frontier Field shares with Kodak). —MariahBetz
