\"From<\/a>
\nBy Matthew Denker<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

From local development to just plain news of the weird, here are your RocLinks for this past week…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When ‘My Way’ is the Highway<\/h3>\n

In what would be a refreshing change anywhere but Rochester, the New York State Dept. of Transportaiton (NYSDOT) doesn’t think there needs to be more highway \"external<\/a> at the current western terminus of Rt. 531. Since this IS Rochester though, public outcry would have us spend $70-$100 Million to trim half-a-second off of a few hundred commutes. Sure, that sounds completely worthwhile. NYSDOT will hold a public hearing \"external<\/a> for the Route 531 Highway Project in Ogden on Feb. 5.<\/p>\n

Now to Think About Doing Something<\/h3>\n

Remember those reasonably interesting plans \"external<\/a> to improve the Blue Cross Arena? Well now the city is looking for a consultant \"external<\/a>who might be able to help make them a reality.<\/p>\n

Ever Poorer<\/h3>\n

Rochester is depressingly poor. \"external<\/a> Also outstanding, what can be done about it.<\/p>\n

Charlotte St. Revisted<\/h3>\n

You may recall there was a Filling In<\/a> regarding the Charlotte St. lot out for bid (and even another post<\/a>). Well the winner of the proposal hasn’t yet been announced, but signs are beginning to point to a Konar\/CJS partnership. \"external<\/a> This bodes well for the quality of the design.<\/p>\n

Nom Nom Nom<\/h3>\n

And finally, if you are hungry but watching what you eat, check out these suggestions for lighter fare \"external<\/a> around town.<\/p>\n
