Valley Hub Inc. (VHI) is a tax exempt nonprofit with the mission of being a primary resource for community action and investment in the vitality and sustainability of the greater Rochester Community.

The VHI initial project is the adaptive reuse of the former Rochester High School building into multi-functional facility designed to meet community-identified needs.

We are currently working to realize the Phase 1 construction plan to upgrade the building envelope for maximum energy efficiency for tenant occupancy.

Embracing Change

Our former high school building has the potential to have new and bright future. This 33,000 square-foot building can be home to all the business and service needs that our community requires. It can include full-time services including adult day center and childcare, and supply space for various types of businesses.

Simultaneously, our neighbors can come together to watch a play in the auditorium, rent a kitchen for a day to make their famous jams or join a cooking class, create their crafts with state-of-the-art equipment, or learn a new skill with a mentor.

We hope to support the changing atmosphere of what it means to be in the workforce. We envision having space to rent for a day or a week, while also providing monthly office spaces.

A Community Collaborative

Please bring us YOUR ideas.

Many in our community have shared theirs, and the vision will continue to grow. This website is a work in progress to help keep our neighbors informed of what’s going on as this exciting project develops.

Please join us as we work together to create a space for US.
