After a Sep 2007 groundbreaking ceremony1, the Mayor Thomas P. Ryan. Jr., Community Center and Library is scheduled for completion during 2008. The City of Rochester, Rochester Public Library and Rochester City School District have launched a cooperative effort to replace the Webster Avenue Recreation Center and the Sully Branch Library.
The combined multi-purpose facility in the City’s northeast quadrant will connect to the Audubon School #33 to provide community and library space and gymnasium facilities for both public use and school system physical education classes and competition.2 References School, library, rec center: What a trio! - Democrat & Chronicle, Larry Ellison • Guest essayist • June 29, 2008 New Community Center Underway - RNews May 5, 2008 1http://www.cityofrochester.gov/mayor/NewsReleases/index.cfm? release=26682Monroe County Library Info
