There are also allot of grain elevators along the lake Eris coast. Adding a few of those will give some variety. Docks along Erie can also be modeled. They took in ore for the steel industry. And grain was shipped through them via the Great Lakes to the Mississippi river.

Rochester is near Buffalo. On the Genesse River there is a cement transfer location that offloads lake freights and transfers to trucks. It is at Turning Point park. Kodak is big there too. They not only made film but large amounts of chemicals.
