As a bike trail, we were rather disappointed.There are some interesting points along the way (nice view of the city, a short span through a waterfront residential area, a great view of their main bridge, the University of Rochester, and some nice park areas), but overall we found that path's difficulty (mainly due to uneven paving, cracks, ill-repair and nearness to highway at one point) to outweigh the touristic value. We got some fascinating views of the Canal, which I wouldn't have wanted to miss. But it is one of those trails we will probably never go on again. Perhaps it is better if you start it out of the city instead?

You get the charm of the original building paired with the modern beauty of the Bausch & Lomb structure both are worth seeing. The library offers a ton of programs for kids, teens, and adults. Definitely check their website, because there's so much going on. Becoming a cardholder is easy, and once you are, make sure you look into their VIP section, you can snag free or discounted tickets to local attractions. You can check out physical books, audiobooks, and ebooks, and they're great if you need computer access or printing. They also have plenty of study areas and quiet spots to get work done. Honestly, they offer more than most people realize (myself included until recently!). The only downside is parking and it can be a bit tricky. I'm not sure if they validate or offer any vouchers, so it's worth asking. I was lucky enough to find street parking... but yes, you do have to pay. A great library with so much to offer. Highly recommend exploring everything they provide.

The children's section was large with lots of books and plenty of activities. A coloring station, a small play greenhouse to read in, and a "secret room" hidden behind a bookshelf, providing another quiet area to play or read. Children's section had its own bathrooms, with child-sized fixtures, which was convenient.

Monroe Avenue is the most important street in Rochester, particularly in terms of night life. If you think of Elmwood in Buffalo then you're thinking of the same thing. With a little Allen St and Chippewa thrown in. Monroe is a little bit tougher in terms of being a somewhat dangerous place at night, or an irksome place if you don't like getting hit up for money and what not. That kind of thing doesn't bother me but it never feels like the ritziest and most fancy street. Definitely Urban, a little run down, and definitely electric and alive. There are lots of good places to eat up and down this road, some of which have been here a while and some of which only opened recently. The Crepes 2 Go place with Chinese Crepes and Han Noodle Bar are among the better ones. Voula's Greek sweets and Dogtown are also very famous ones. Anyway, Marilyn is calling so that's all from me.

I love this library…read more It's such a great location-- right next to the canal for a study break, near cafes for good food and caffeine if you're pulling a full day of studying. The study rooms look out at the canal, providing a beautiful view. There's also a "reading garden" which is a cute little courtyard if patrons want to read or study in the sun. The librarians are all very nice and helpful, of course. I also enjoy participating in the summer reading program, since they have a program for any age group.

(And super close to Pittsford Dairy) I actually passed it initially as it looked more like an office building. I parked on the street but I'm 99% sure there is a lot behind the library. It's spacious, with a large hallway when you walk in displaying many used books for sale, as well as a free shelf. The "bookstore" is self serve with a cash box, and most I saw were priced at $1. Staff was friendly and helped me locate a book for my book club. This is an impressive looking library with 2 floors and big, sunny windows. If I had more time, it would have been a great place to spend an afternoon. I believe there is also an outdoor deck, but doubt that gets much traffic in January!

The following was sent to the Supervisor and director of librarys:…read moreMr. Reilich, Mr. Morris, At 9:02am (not 9am) today 9/4/2025, the doors to the Greece Public were opened to those of us waiting outside. This is after being closed for 3 days over the Labor Day weekend. The first staff member I encountered was a hefty woman of about 350 or more pounds, with long brown hair. I explained that I had a final technical interview at 10am and my apartment was a construction site, and that I wanted to know if I could use a private room for my interview. She escorted me to what was essentially an open cubicle area. I explained that I was interested in a private room. She made it clear that even though the private rooms were empty I could not use one, unless it was an open community meeting or something like that... I said, I would just use the Quiet Study area, and I expressed my dismay that this library did not have any private rooms available. (Even Livonia Public Library has private rooms available.) Later, the same hefty woman came into the Quiet Study room to offer me a comment card, which I took and thanked her for. To recap: to spite telling the woman that I had a final technical interview, she interrupted me in the Quiet Study room to provide an unrequested comment card. Then things got worse. Shortly after being interrupted by the hefty woman, two other women came into the Quiet Study room and accosted me. One of these women had a large-print name badge stating her name as Cathy Henderson. She did not say good morning, made zero attempts at professional common courtesy and attacked me verbally. The women aggressively approached me and informed me that the Quiet Study was not a place for a meeting. By this point, I got very upset that two more library employees thought it was appropriate to come into the Quiet Study area to do nothing more than to harass me. They were not there to help, or to offer assistance. They were there to provoke, bully and instigate. Is that how librarians are supposed to behave towards patrons? The excuse given by Cathy, who was petty, stupid and childish -- as opposed to professional and mature -- was to hand me a sheet with the Code of Conduct. I had had zero interactions with her or her partner! In fact, I had not talked to these women at all. I was the only person present. Why were they sent to bother me in the Quiet Study area, if not to start trouble? And did the rotund brown-haired woman send them over for that purpose? Seems like that is exactly what happened here. These women sought me out, to harass me. I explained to Cathy with a "C", that I would postpone my meeting. She absolutely was intent on arguing and provoking because instead of leaving the Quiet Study area after handing me the Code of Conduct, she proceeded to verbally harass me with threats on what would happen "if she saw me using the Quiet Study area for a meeting" -- are you kidding me?? Not only was I the only person in the area, I had already explained that I was going to request my interview be postponed, yet Cathy continued to repeat everything she had just said! I was astonished and said Do you mind? Do you mind if I get on with my work? Both Cathy and the other woman (Claire?) continued to stand there threatening me! At a public library! I have never been treated with such unprofessional hostility by someone claiming to be a librarian in a public library. These women belong in retail, or any place where petty, small-minded argumentative people thrive. Will I visit this library ever again? Not a chance. Your staff are barely veiled vulgar trash who do not deserve the title or position of librarian. AND THIS IN A NUTSHELL IS THE PROBLEM WITH ROCHESTER -- AND AMERICA -- DIM-WITTED, UNEDUCATED, VULGAR PEOPLE RUNNING THINGS THAT SHOULD NOT BE SEEN OR HEARD. Boycott this vulgar library. Side point: if you have trouble finding a title by it's library index number, it is not you. It is the brain-dead petty staff.
