That is approximately the number of households in the NEMNU Area! NEMNU LOCAL HISTORY In the early 1900's the NEMNU area was part of Brighton (referred to as West Brighton). Jane Wood owned 27-1/2 acres, while familiarly-named landowners L.W. Hall, M. Berry and F.W. Maxson owned large plots. Starting around 1910, a few streets began appearing, but with different names than we’re used to. Macbeth St. was Stratford St., Cedarwood Terrace was Federal St., Packard St. was Bonner Place and Hall St. was then called Maxson St. There were three large nurseries located in the neighborhood. Glenwood Nurseries, Graham Nursery Co and Woodlawn Nurseries. By 1925, the NEMNU area had become primarily residential except for E. Main St. businesses. North East Main Neighbors United is located in Rochester, New York. |
