Reconnecting Communities
Since 2018
The Power of Neighborhood
Hinge Neighbors works alongside residents and community partners currently separated by the Inner Loop North to encourage and prepare neighbors to talk to city consultants and staff about their future. Rochester is a city that has not historically listened well. Our involvement will guide residents toward an improved community identity reflecting its history in the city. And, in the end, a thriving and safe neighborhood here will improve Rochester as a whole.

Human-Centered Public Spaces
Respectable housing, inviting streetscapes, walkability, green spaces, and social/cultural activities are hallmarks of downtown living. We are focused on raising voices to make neighborhood life accessible to all.
