Who needs 4 Million Dollars? Compare and Contrast

I know I am angry about something when it follows me into the next day! I am still boiling over the 4 million more for University Ave ArtWalk. I love the ArtWalk and feel it is an important aspect in the overall quality of life in Rochester. But in the current economic conditions, I feel it is essential to invest in parts of the city that really need help. ArtWalk will survive, but will Thurston Road? Or is this the year we loose it to absentee landlords and the gangs?

I'm with you Shawn! I don't know when these photos were taken by Google, but Thurston is even worse now. I've actually been thinking it would be interesting to take regular photos on Thurston and post them...... I am beginning to think that people simply do not SEE how bad it is (it's easy to NOT notice things)
