The roof is being reshingled, windows have been repainted, and there were 4-6 workmen inside setting up equipment. I changed the name from "Abandoned Armory" to "The Armory" since, as you can tell, it's no longer abandoned -["FarMcKon" Far] + + 2006.02.04 - The newly renovated Armory, now a concert hall, hosted its first event--a concert by alternative rockers [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Of_a_Revolution O.A.R]. Early reports from [http://www.13wham.com WHAM-TV] show concerns from nearby residents regarding noise and crowds. The city is reportedly monitoring the parking situation and noise levels and will use this data as a determination in whether or not to renew the venue's entertainment license in one year. - ["JasonPitoniak" Jason] + + ''2006-10-01 15:40:37'' [[nbsp]] Picture of the interior: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tobin/257878723/ --["TobinFricke"] + ------ + ''2007-01-02 21:57:08'' [[nbsp]] According to a recent article in the D&C, the armory will be the future home to the ["Rochester Raiders"] Arena Football team. --["ScottHendler"]
