One of Rochester’s best-known historical figures is getting more attention in the local court system. Ceremonies were held this week at the Hall of Justice in downtown Rochester, to mark the unveiling of a restored marble bust of Susan B. Anthony, as well as naming one of the courtrooms in honor of the famed suffragist. That bust, which previously had been at a Rochester school, and then at the Susan B. Anthony Museum and House, is now housed at the Hall of Justice.
