Interesting partial cloverleaf near the Rochester Airport
Fairport Road Cloverleaf
Back in 1960, there was a cloverleaf at Fairport Road that was removed in more recent years to allow Monroe Community College to expand and eliminate a dangerous intersection.
Before and After – Inner Loop Removal
About 15 years ago, I worked in Rochester and I can remember the Rochester Moat -- the Inner Loop. It was removed in the mid-2010s, at least the western portion of it to allow Downtown Rochester to be better connected with the up and coming College neighborhood.

Rochester Inner Loop 1995-2020
In the past 5 years there has been an active effort to replace part of the Rochester Inner Loop with urban infill. You can explore these years above: 1995, 2002, 2005, 2009, 2015, and 2020.
Clearing
Heading up north, on NY 5 along the Mohawk River after a drizzly afternoon it started to clear.

Amsterdam hasn't changed much over the years. The traffic light on the right is not out, it's just that the LED traffic indication rides the sign wave, and when this picture was snapped the light was in the zero phase.
