What’s Inside

Highland Park is a photographic portrait of one of Rochester’s most cherished public landscapes. Designed as part of the city’s historic park system and shaped by Frederick Law Olmsted’s philosophy, the park reflects a belief that beauty, nature, and thoughtful design should be shared.

Through full-color photographs taken across the seasons, this book captures quiet paths, open hillsides, and garden spaces shaped by light, weather, and time. Brief contextual text provides historical context while allowing the images to lead.

Highland Park is for readers who appreciate landscape photography, public parks, and the enduring value of places created for the public good.
