This view shows the site of old Carthage Landing, on the east-side flats of the Genesee River, at Rochester, New York, about one mile north of the Lower Falls. For years it was one of the greatest shipping ports for commerce on the Great Lakes. Above, on the high banks, was the village of Carthage. The flats were reached by an inclined railway, and by a winding road.
