Lumina Industrial Park

The site is ideal for a small industrial park or multiple industrial /commercial/ health uses. The maximum one story building that would fit on site is approximately 80,000 square feet, and development can go up in height, if needed.  Subdivision of the site can be accommodated.

Solar Field on Former Emerson Street Landfill

From Brownfield to Brightfield

The City of Rochester turned a portion of a former city landfill into a 2-MegaWatt solar field. After several years of environmental clean-up, part of the former Emerson Street Landfill on 1655 Lexington Ave is now being used for renewable energy generation.

The City of Rochester selected Solar Liberty, a Buffalo-based solar company, to install, maintain, own, and operate the solar field. Working with their partner, AES Distributed Energy, Solar Liberty completed the project in 2017.
