2007-05-09 23:27:27   does anyone have more historical information on this house? the owners? —GrahamSaathoff

2007-05-18 02:33:44   From what I've heard (from people who live in the area), these are privately-owned homes, so asking for a tour might be intrusive. —JayUnnikrishnan

2007-11-07 15:36:55   i've driven to see them and they are privately owned now. —MissGia

2008-06-02 00:56:51   I used to love driving by this house when I was a kid (and I still do!) Definitely a must-see Rochester area landmark. If you have children, take them to sneak a peak at these and then check out the fish hatchery down the road. —MariahBetz
