There are interesting parallels between Columbus and Rochester, and, in particular, the roles played by J. Irwin Miller and George Eastman, respectively, in their values and cultural development.
As an aside, both men built interesting residences that are open to the public, and well worth visiting, especially by anyone with even a passing interest in design[1] or photography[2], respectively.
[1] Miller's house was designed by Eero Saarinen, whose other notable projects included the "futuristic" Dulles and JFK airport terminals, and the St. Louis Arch.
[2] In addition to the building itself, the Eastman House now serves more generally as a museum of photography and photographic technology.
