Love old buildings but don’t know a Queen Anne from a Dutch Colonial? The Landmark Society’s Young Urban Preservationists (YUPs for short) are taking students out onto the streets to explore Rochester’s architectural history in its natural setting. In this 2-hour outdoor class, students will walk the Neighborhood of the Arts and the East Avenue neighborhoods and learn the names of important architectural styles; some basic architectural terminology; and how to approximately date the buildings so often seen.

Please note: This class is an active walking tour (approximately 1.5 to 2 miles on sidewalks and paved paths). Please wear appropriate clothes for the weather and walking shoes.
