This attempt was prior to the building of the Mt. Morris Dam in the 1950's, and has since been adaquate to control the waters of the Genesee. --["Users/JimGibson"]

	+ ------ + ''2006-02-20 20:55:11'' [[nbsp]] City newspaper reports that Saddle Ridge Entertainment Resort will move into the former Jillians in High Falls. Saddle Ridge is another chain (6 other locations, Pittsburgh, Columbia, SC, Louisville, 2 in L.A., and one in Cincinnatti) like Dave and Busters and Jillians, but has a more adult spin to it. "The Rochester venue will have 5 attractions. Saddle Ridge's main focus will be country music with line dancing, cowboy-hatted girls dancing on the bar, and a mechanical bull. Top 40 music will be offered in The Yucatan Liquor Stand. The Cheyenne Super Club will serve BBQ, steaks, and over-stuffed sandwiches with live local and national entertainment after 10 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. The Palm Bar will have an upscale atmosphere and high-end tapas menu. And King Pinz will feature a retro bowling alley, salvaged from Jillian's. The grand opening target: late March-early April.
