Fairport
Fairport is a canal village in the town of Perinton, southeast of Rochester. When the Erie Canal came through in the 1820s, Fairport became a port — hence the name — and the village still turns toward the water: the canal, the landmark lift bridge, and the village landing define the center of town.
Main Street keeps an active village commercial district, and the town hosts the annual Fairport Music Festival each summer.
