- '''About Brooks Avenue:'''	+ '''Brooks Avenue''' is a ["Routes" route] with its eastern origins in the city's ["19th Ward"] neighborhood. It takes ["Route 204"] to the west and into the suburb of ["Gates"]. It intersects with ["Interstate 390" I-390] and partially overlaps the ["Airport Expressway"]. For much of its length, the road is actually very residential, but it intersects with a number of commercial corridors.

For much of its length, the road is actually very residential, but it intersects with a number of commercial corridors.	+ ==In Rochester== + At its eastern terminus, you find ["Brooks Landing"], a series of buildings being developed semi-independently around the Brooks-Genesee where the ["University of Rochester Footbridges" pedestrian bridge] connects the 19th Ward to the ["University of Rochester"] ["River Campus"]. Nearby, but still on Brooks, are Episcopalian and Baptist churches. At the intersection with ["Thurston Road"], there is a ["Rite Aid"] pharmacy, an exterminator, a security firm, a bar and some women's apparel shops. Proceeding westward, you will find ["True North Rochester Preparatory Charter School"] on your right, sharing a parking lot with yet another church.
Line 10:	Line 14:
- At its eastern terminus, you find the ["Brooks Landing Project"], which is actually a series of buildings being developed semi-independently around the Brooks-Genesee intersection and ["Brooks Auto Parts & Repairs"]. The pedestrian footbridge to the ["University of Rochester"] is immediately accessible from here. Nearby, but still on Brooks, are Episcopalian and Baptist churches.	+ On the city limit, where Brooks Avenue intersects with Genesee Park Boulevard. Here you will find ["Gas Stations" Gil Tegg's Mobil Mart], one of the few sources of E85 in Rochester. You will also find the Buckeye Terminal (from whence much of the area's gasoline comes) and the ["Holiday Inn - Airport"] in close proximity.

If you stay left, the center lane narrows and the road becomes two lanes wide again as you reach the underpass formed by the airport entrance.
