Non-free / fair use media rationale for Midtown Plaza (Rochester)
Description	A view of the interior of Midtown Plaza in Rochester, New York, the first indoor downtown shopping mall in the United States. This photograph was taken just before 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday; the low level of activity shown is typical for this time and day. The Peebles department store is on the bottom floor, to the left. The Clock of Nations occupies the foreground.
Source	The photograph is my own work (User:LtPowers). The Clock of Nations, as a sculpture, is presumably still under copyright; its use in this image requires a fair-use rationale.
Article	Midtown Plaza (Rochester)
Portion used	A 2-D representation of a 3-D sculpture, which itself is part of a mallscape.
Low resolution?	Yes, relative to the non-free parts of this image; the text on the Clock is largely unreadable.
Purpose of use	This image is to illustrate the current condition of Midtown Plaza in the article of the same name. The Clock of Nations is included as a vital portion of the mall's history and an unavoidable element of any image of its interior.
Replaceable?	Any useful image of Midtown's interior will, by necessity, include the Clock of Nations, so no free equivalent is creatable.
