High Falls and the flour city
1823
Rochester, New York

A 96-foot waterfall in the middle of downtown drove the mills that made Rochester the largest flour producer in the country. When milling moved west the city turned to seeds and nurseries and restyled itself the Flower City, which is why the lilac festival exists.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
