Genesee Valley Park, Public park in Rochester, United States.
Genesee Valley Park extends across 800 acres along the eastern bank of the Genesee River, featuring rolling pastoral fields and three intersecting waterways.
Frederick Law Olmsted designed this expansive recreational space in the late 19th century as one of the first two major parks developed by Rochester Park Commission.
The park name honors Native American heritage and includes facilities for diverse sports including cricket, golf, baseball, and soccer, reflecting the multicultural community.
Seven open-air shelters remain available for reservation between May and October, with two seasonal restrooms positioned on opposite sides of the grounds.
Three significant waterways - Red Creek, the Genesee River, and the Erie Canal - intersect within the park boundaries, creating multiple water recreation opportunities.
