Lighthouse. This is the Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse of Rochester. It was built in 1822 and sits along the Port of the Genesee River. It is not a real working lighthouse anymore as we have other modern navigation aides for the river but the rotating light still works.

Oh I almost forgot... on the roof of the house you can see a weather instrument. It's a local "Weather Bug" sponsored by a local TV station with a live image of the river and the Coast Guard Station. It can be seen here: http://www.geneseelighthouse.org/weatherbug.htm
