The City of Rochester Historical charm, cultural amenities, scenic beauty and civic dedication are all working for you when you locate a business in Rochester. THE PAST - Rochester is one of those rare communities that continues to pressure the essence of Americana. The city leaders, and the owners of River Square, have long been dedicated to maintaining the charm that makes people want to visit, and aspire to live in, "our town". Rather than a deterrent to growth, we believe this controlled approach is a guarantee of continued prosperity. THE PRESENT - Among the many attractions that bring upscale shoppers to Downtown Rochester are:
- A 34-acre downtown park
- Meadowbrook Theatre and Music Festival
- Avon Players Theatre
- The Palace
- Pine Knob Recreational Facility
- Pontiac Silverdome
- Stoney Creek, Addison Oaks, Bald Mountain Metro Parks
- Full Service, 111,000-volume library
- Oakland University

- Oakland Technology Park
- Atallah Heart Center

In addition, special annual events give Rochester businesses extra opportunities to meet new shoppers:

ART'n APPLES - Michigan's second-largest juried art fair, attracting over 150,000 people.
SIDEWALK SALE DAYS - A three-day sellout every July.
CHRISTMAS PARADE - One of Michigan's largest parades, with a half century-old tradition.
LAGNIAPPE - French for "A Little Something Extra", that promotes a joyous shopping atmosphere all during the holiday season. THE FUTURE - A loyal and expanding resident customer base, spectacular projections for the area's economy, and a planned approach to prosperous growth make Rochester the place to be now... and in years to come.
