On the Grid : The Hungerford
"A&W root beer was made here. Literally. The Hungerford building used to be the manufacturing facility of the flavor syrup for everyone’s favorite root beer along with “True Fruit” flavored soda fountain syrups. Now, it’s where Rochester creatives go to create. The hallways are lined with small businesses and artists’ studios. Pop your head in any doorway and you’re bound to find pottery, textiles, paintings, letterpress, comics, antiques, woodworking, jewelry, photography, or ice cream. Call ahead if you’re interested in visiting a specific studio, or come in on First Fridays and Second Saturdays when the majority open their doors. Finding your way can feel like a maze so make sure to check out the map on the website if you want to make a plan. But if you’re anything like us, you’ll enjoy wandering aimlessly, getting a little lost, and exploring all the wonder this building holds." - Truth Collective
