City of Rochester
News Release
(Monday, July 1, 2019) - Mayor Lovely A. Warren today
unveiled a new web page that will help transform vacant real estate parcels
into productive, job-producing development sites.
“This new web page is a great tool for developers to find
prospective sites here in Rochester,” said Mayor Warren. “We hope to see these
project sites transformed into job-producing industries, bustling businesses,
or commercial development that cultivates safer and more vibrant neighborhoods
throughout the city.”
The web page presents a map of prime developments sites
on a geographic information system (GIS), which details general site data. This
page will help purchasers identify multi-acre City-owned real estate that is
already zoned for development.
The page also provides information such as site size,
street level and aerial photographs, zoning information, appraised value,
environmental reports and project information of any nearby planned developments.
In addition, there are links to the City’s mapping and tax accounting pages and
contact information for follow-up questions.
The page can be viewed at: www.cityofrochester.gov/Development_Ready_Sites
