I've always wondered about the trackage in the Genesee Regional Market. I assume that there are no longer any customers in the center that are serviced, but this Conrail map from 1987 shows provision for many customers... can someone elaborate on the history of this complex? Was it built to be a major produce and food terminal for Rochester (like Hunt's Point in the Bronx)? The diamond in the track complex is intriguing.

Also, this map shows NY 15 crossing over the West Shore on a bridge, when in realityy NY 15 goes under the West Shore. Or was this really the case 20 years ago?
