Originally North Park, this three-mile preserve of forested river gorge, was renamed Seneca (which means "stone") to recognize its Native American heritage as well as the deeply cut stone in the river gorge. Another of Frederick Law Olmsted's works of living art, the park includes Trout Lake, created by damming a natural spring.

The historic Dentzel Menagerie Carousel at Ontario Beach Park has inspired childhood memories of summer for more than a century. Built by the G.A. Dentzel Co. of Philadelphia, the carousel was installed at its present site in 1905. Its 52 hand-carved animals and two chariots offer children an imaginative, fun-filled menagerie. Figures include horses, mules, ostriches and a tiger.
The carousel opens for the season on Memorial Day weekend. Learn more about Ontario Beach Park.

Oxford Street in Rochester's Park Avenue Neighborhood is well known for its magnificent row of magnolia trees, which come into bloom each spring.

The Oxford Mall extends from Monroe Avenue to Park Avenue.
