Rochester has a Holiday Village , complete with an outdoor skating rink. Last weekend saw thousands of people come out to shop for local goods, eat, and skate. And there was a common refrain: This is what towns used to feel like. But is that true? Do we become overly nostalgic, constructing narratives of the past that are overly positive? We talk about that, and we explore how the winter village could become a permanent December fixture.
