ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Construction has officially begun on the $4 million skatepark expansion project on the Genesee Riverway.
Phase two of the project is set to feature new areas for beginners, an event space, and a general increase in the park's size, including more flat ground to welcome skaters of all abilities. They hope the park could also host competitions.
“With Phase II, the ROC City Skatepark will begin to reach its full potential, creating new opportunities for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders, as well as those returning to the fold. We are profoundly grateful to the many supporters who brought us to this point, and we’re excited to work with the City and State to help the skatepark continue to grow as a positive force in the community”, said Erich S.
