The Inglewood and Thurston Historic District in Rochester is a go-to destination for fashion brands and independent designers seeking a neighborhood rich in history and style. This area, home to diverse architectural marvels from Colonial Revival to Arts and Crafts, provides a unique backdrop for creative endeavors. In our experience placing brands in the Ward, we've noticed smaller showrooms and concept stores particularly drawn to the streets like Thurston and Inglewood, where there's a mutual respect among boutique owners and local ateliers. With a rich mix of traditional and contemporary aesthetics, the neighborhood also becomes an ideal location for pop-up shops and short-term commercial spaces looking to stand out.
