Lake Ontario State Parkway | Landmark Society

Officially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, this 35-mile parkway along the southern shore of Lake Ontario is one of only two state parkways built in western New York. Constructed beginning in the late 1940s, it is a segment of a much longer parkway originally planned by Franklin D. Roosevelt to connect Fort Niagara to the Thousand Islands. The Lake Ontario State Parkway is architecturally significant as a designed historic landscape in the tradition of earlier parkways in New York State, featuring a picturesque curving route, rustic sandstone bridges and buildings, and park-like landscaping, offering scenic views of Lake Ontario and the surrounding countryside.

U.S. Farmer Income Drops Most Since 2016 Amid Trade War Pain – Bloomberg

Personal income for farmers fell by the most in three years in the first quarter, as losses to U.S. agriculture mount from President Donald Trump’s trade wars.

The Commerce Department on Monday cited the steep decline in farm proprietors’ income as a key factor weighing on the nation’s overall personal income growth in March, even though agricultural producers represent only about 2 percent of total employed Americans.

The report provided fresh evidence of the growing financial strain on U.S. farmers hit by the trade war, low commodity prices and a series of natural disasters including spring floods in the Midwest. With rural voters a key part of Trump’s electoral coalition, it also underscores the political pressure to conclude the China trade war as U.S. negotiators begin another round of talks in Beijing this week.
