As stated in the thesis project, "Rochester, New Hampshire is a small city of about 30,000 residents. It is located on the east border of New Hampshire, abutting Lebanon, Maine. Rochester is approximately 100 miles due north of Boston, Massachusetts. In years past, the driving forces of Rochester have included industries of shoe and leather production, agriculture, and services. Many of the commercial interests have moved to climates friendlier in temperature and labor. Others have simply folded....The primary goal of this project was to obtain development rights of the Al-Gor Shoe Mill in Rochester, New Hampshire. Secondary goals included utilizing the mill buildings and creating affordable housing and commercial space." (Library-derived description)Robblee, D. A. (1992).
