American inventor and innovator George Eastman founded the Eastman Kodak company. Although he passed away in 1932, his legacy lives on until today.
Here are pictures of the George Eastman House, now a museum that chronicles the stages in the development of modern consumer photography and cinema. The museum is open Tuesdays to Saturdays from 10 AM to 5 PM, except Thursdays when the museum is open until 8 PM. The George Eastman House is also open during Sundays from 1 PM to 5 PM. Adults pay $8.00 for admission. Seniors over 60, students and children from 5-12, get a reduced admission fee ($6.00, $5.00 and $3.00 respectively). Museum members and children under 4 years of age can enter for free.
The last picture is George Eastman's suicide note that reads, "To my Friends, My work is done. Why wait?"

The Kodak Tower in Rochester
Kodak. The American label synonymous to unforgettable moments and lifelong memories. And when I was in New York, I took some time to take pictures of the Kodak World Headquarters in Rochester.
