	+ '''Erie Harbor Enhancement Project (2012)''' + + Following the completion of ["The Hamilton Apartments"] and ["Erie Harbor"], the City of Rochester, in partnership with Conifer Realty and private equity investor ["M&T Bank"], announced additional improvements to the Genesee Gateway Park in ["2012"]. The Erie Harbor Enhancement Project promises enhanced pedestrian access linking the park and neighborhood and a 12-acre riverfront promenade extending from the ["Ford Street Bridge"] to 151 Mt. Hope Avenue. There are also plans for a ["public art"] installation. Funding is being provided by city bonds, city cash, and a waterfront revitalization grant from the New York Department of State.[[FootNote(''["The Wedge"]'', October/November 2012 issue)]] +

There's some concrete remnants that appear to be left over from the ["River Park Commons" public housing complex] that used to be there. Really needs help in the landscaping department. --["Users/EileenF"]	+ ''2012-08-06 14:37:08'' [[nbsp]] Dear City of Rochester, + + You have here a bustling park with a very nice riverside trail and stunning views of the downtown skyline. And just look at the place! Ruined, overgrown paths and pavement; ugly concrete crap apparently left over from that old ["River Park Commons" public housing complex]; and, to top it off, a vast, empty untamed expanse that resembles an abandoned lot, which is actually what I thought it was until Google Maps revealed that this is whole thing is in fact a park. In recent years this portion of Mt. Hope Ave has seen a vast improvement in the form of ["Erie Harbor"] and the ["The Hamilton Apartments" Hamilton], and there is even a new restaurant scheduled to open across the street. Let's not quit while we're halfway there. + + --["Users/EileenF"]
