Valentown is a Historical Museum located in Victor, New York, containing local historical artifacts of Victor and Rochester, New York. Originally built in 1879 as a shopping plaza and community center by Levi Valentine, today Valentown stands as a monument to Valentine's inspiration for building a town on top of his own family farm land.Valentine built Valentown with the hope for the railroad to be its lifeblood. Unfortunately, the company building the railroad ran out of funds and tracks before they could reach Valentown. Eventually, Valentown was vacated and left untouched. In 1940 historian J.
