The Genesee River is the element that unifies the Convention District. On the east bank the Rochester Convention Center hosts a non-stop array of conferences and conventions in a building designed by noted post-modern architect James Polshek. Hotels are easily accessed via the Skyway System and by several scenic bridges crossing the river. In the Convention District, you're within easy walking distance of virtually everything Downtown.
