Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion have been undergoing renovations and have changed their entrance recently. Previously, the address was 151 Charlotte St, Canandaigua, NY, 14424 which is written on our invitations. Their new entrance address is now 250 Gibson St, Canandaigua, NY, 14424. Do not worry as there will be signs guiding you to the new entrance if you happen to arrive at the old address. Driving Directions from Rochester: From the NYS Thruway (I-90), take exit 44 Head south on NY-332 Turn left on Gibson Street Continue on Gibson Street, just past Charlotte Street Entrance on the left side of Gibson Street.
