Parts of PLEX are included in the ["Third Ward Historic District"]. It is a largely residential ["Rochester Neighborhoods" area] where ["University of Rochester"] students and employees mingle with working-class families. - - Note that PLEX is often lumped in with the adjacent ["19th Ward"], which is larger and more well-known. ["Brooks Landing"] forms a busy, active border between PLEX, the 19th Ward, and ["Genesee-Jefferson Neighborhood" Genesee-Jefferson]. The northeastern border of PLEX includes the ["Ford St and South Plymouth Ave Traffic Roundabout"] where the two streets intersect. PLEX can be reached from ["Mount Hope Avenue"] and the ["South Wedge"] by crossing the ["Ford Street Bridge"] and going left. Going right is ["Corn Hill"]. - - Running along the southeastern border of PLEX is the ["Genesee River Trail"], between Exchange St. and the ["Genesee River"]. Entrances to the trail are located at Flint and Violetta Streets. The geography of PLEX is also notable for the hill on South Plymouth that offers some very nice views of the ["downtown"] skyline. - - Both rent and real estate are extremely cheap. House prices are well within the five digits, sometimes as low as $25,000 for small ones. - - ===Development=== - [[Image(exchange.JPG, right, 300, thumbnail, noborder, "Exchange Street (Sept. 2012)")]] - [[Image(elba.JPG, right, 300, thumbnail, noborder, "Elba Street (Sept. 2012)")]] - In recent years PLEX has experienced a surge of redevelopment, including new businesses, [http://www.housingfinance.com/ahf/articles/2007/aug/PLYMOUTH0807.htm new housing] at Carlson Commons and Plymouth Manor, and the University of Rochester's ["Brooks Landing Project"]. - - In January ["2012"] UR [http://www.campustimes.org/2012/01/26/ur-building-new-housing-in-plex/ announced] that it was expanding the Brooks Landing Project to include yet more student housing. The new dormitory, located on Plymouth Ave (on the border between PLEX and the 19th Ward), is expected to be eleven stories high and home to 145-170 upperclassmen, in addition to the 400 already living in Riverview. A restaurant open to the public will occupy the first floor. - - On June 16, 2012 a [http://www.location19.org/events/plex-southwest-r0chester-riverfront-design-charrette Riverfront Design Charette] was held for PLEX residents to brainstorm with UR officials and community planners from the city. The most common requests included a well-stocked grocery store, a laundromat, a possible ["ice cream"] parlor, greater walkability, new green spaces, and the sprucing up School No. 19, which is currently bland and foreboding. ["Riverview Place"], a dead-end street known for its tiny cottages, received a fair amount of attention as a possible candidate for an historic district. - - The biggest concern was the [wiki:wikipedia:Brownfield_land brownfield] surrounded by Riverview Place, Exchange Street, Flint Street, and the Genesee River, where the entrance to the Genesee Valley Trail is located. It was the site of a New York Standard Oil refinery until the 1930s and is still contaminated. The City of Rochester states that it is presently working out a plan for clean-up with Exxon Mobile, the successor company to New York Standard Oil, but no deal has yet been reached. Another problem is the junk yard and several abandoned warehouses there. Suggestions for new uses included loft apartments, a gym, a large grocery store, and an outdoor sporting center and ["Biking" bike] shop to tie in with the Genesee Valley trail. - - In July ["2012"] UR opened the [http://www.cityofrochester.gov/article.aspx?id=8589946116 Erie Lackawanna] ["University of Rochester Footbridges" pedestrian bridge] extending from the Genesee River Trail behind Exchange Street (near the Flint Street entrance) directly to ["Wilson Boulevard"] on the ["University of Rochester/River Campus" River Campus]. (The first pedestrian bridge was the one at Brooks Landing, which opened in ["1991"].) This allows students living in ["Riverview Apartments"] quicker access to the River Campus and provide the UR community an easy way to reach downtown via bicycle. (Note: UR officials advise against using this portion of the Genesee River Trail at night, due to its isolation and lack of lighting.) - - ===A Bad Reputation=== - - Like the neighboring 19th Ward, PLEX suffers from a bad reputation due to its troubled past and generally low-income demographics. This has been especially prevalent on the River Campus, due in part to the memories of alumni who subsequently warn their children attending UR. There was a brief spike of muggings at Brooks Landing in ["2007"], but increased police patrols and a strong UR security presence have largely eliminated the problem. The crime rate today is lower than most people think, although reasonable caution should be exerted, especially at night and in the streets closer to the ["Genesee-Jefferson Neighborhood"], which is very much a problem area. ["Jefferson Avenue"] has some issues as well. - - PLEX may still appear intimidating to those unused to urban grit, but closer acquaintance reveals a strong sense of community pride and increasing signs of revitalization. Since they opened in Fall ["2008"], the Riverview Apartments have proven enormously popular with UR students, as have other off-campus living options in the immediate area. - - A crime map of Rochester is available [http://classic.crimereports.com/widget/widget.html?CRSearch=Rochester,NY here]. - - ===Located in PLEX=== - - * ["Ant Hill Cooperative"] - * ["M.K.

Runaway slaves used the north-flowing Genesee River to escape to freedom, while ["Susan B. Anthony"] and ["Frederick Douglass"] used to meet in the Brooks Landing area. Where houses stand now used to be a ["Flower City" flower nursery] of over 300 acres. Today, many families have lived in the same house for up to four or five generations. - - [[Comments]] - - ------ - ''2007-05-19 23:43:30'' [[nbsp]] In my opinion, in 5 or 10 years, this neighborhood will be the next South Wedge with people saying, aw darn, where was I a few years ago when that real estate was dirt cheap? --["JoannaLicata"] - ------ - ''2012-03-07 22:26:06'' [[nbsp]] It's been five years since your comment. PLEX has not attained Wedge levels of trendiness ''yet'', but it's slowly moving its way along. The Gandhi Institute just moved into an old crackhouse. UR has also done a lot thanks to the ["Brooks Landing"] project. So we've got cool places like Ant Hill Co-op, people like the Daves, and more and more UR students which also brings an increased security presence. So we're getting there. I'd definitely stick around. --["Users/EileenF"] - ------ - ''2012-03-16 10:20:14'' [[nbsp]] It's missing the easy highway access like the other trendy areas have. --["Users/DamianKumor"]	+ #redirect Plymouth-Exchange

	+ ------ + ''2012-03-16 21:21:48'' [[nbsp]] PLEX also lacks any type of grocery store beyond a couple of convenience stores that sell crap and one tiny meat market that has a small produce section. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the closest real grocery store is ["Abundance Cooperative Market"], which is all the way on ["Monroe Avenue"]. For the UR students this neighborhood is likely to attract, that's not really an issue - they have meal plans and free shuttle buses to Wegmans. But for everyone else, it's pretty much a food desert right now. They need to work on that. --["Users/EileenF"]
