Rowe Photo was a local electronics chain founded in 1898, with showrooms in Rochester, Greece and Webster. They sold new and used, professional and amateur audio, visual, photographic and home theater equipment. They also did photo restoration and digital transfers for those rapidly deteriorating but cherished 8mm home movies.
Over time , the Rochester location became their primary showroom. Unfortunately, the "store" part of the store is very cramped. The showroom is rather nice though.
Well known Radio Host Chet Walker was the commercial pitchman for Rowe.
They also own Scott's Photo and DAVE Digital Audio Visual Environments which are still open under their current names.
