Fairport, Canal village in Monroe County, United States
Fairport stretches along the Erie Canal with residential neighborhoods, tree-lined streets, and a commercial district containing local shops and restaurants.
The settlement transformed from a swampy area into a prosperous canal port after the Erie Canal construction in the 1820s drained the surrounding land.
The Canal Days Festival brings thousands of visitors to the village each June for arts, crafts, food vendors, and water-based activities.
Fairport Municipal Commission supplies electricity to residents and businesses at lower rates compared to surrounding utility providers in Monroe County.
A dedicated train viewing platform with a restored caboose allows visitors to observe daily rail traffic and access live feeds at Fairport Junction.
