About Swillburg

The Swillburg Neighborhood is a cozy, active triangular shaped 20 block community bordered by Field Street, South Clinton Avenue, Meigs Street, and I-490. The neighborhood is home to dedicated, caring residents. The charming, narrow streets and natural mixture of homes and businesses offer the feel of a village with the convenience of urban living. Businesses such as the 1930’s Highland Park Diner, upscale Rooney’s Restaurant, and the authentic India House provide diverse dining opportunities. The neighborhood is convenient to all the city of Rochester has to offer, including Highland Park, Cobb’s Hill Park, museums, shopping, and even $5 movies at the Highland Cinema. The neighborhood Association has many events for its residents including a holiday light decorating contest, Halloween scavenger hunt, National Night Out Carnival, Swillfest, and an organized community garage sale. The neighborhood residents also maintain a variety of different gardens and planters.
