Development in and Around Syracuse Discussion

Once the Novelty wears off will people keep showing up? Syracuse and the suburbs are notorious for being front runners for new restaurants/attractions and then disappearing faster then a Rutgers fan after a loss. There are some exceptions ie Chick Fil A is still ridiculously popular but there's plenty of examples of the area just losing interest and the business ultimately folding ie Cici's, Krispy Kreme, numerous chain restaurants, amongst others. There is also the issue of competition. Tried Baghdad which was good but with King Davids now on the west side and Pita Dream seems unlikely all 3 are gonna make it.

Just give Joe Girard a couple more years of eligibility. Problem solved.
 
They really need to re-develop the old Sibley's building. It would help connect Armory to the Salt City Market neighborhood for sure.
 
I'm not a Katko fan by any means, but I will say he does try to do right in this space. His niece committed suicide recently and he's very active in another foundation supporting a local family who's son also committed suicide about 2 years ago.
I did not know that, thanks for sharing. I was really laughing at having Dr. Phil host it but they plan to have a real doctor attend as well. It's on facebook live so Dr. Phil will probably draw a crowd there would be my guess.
 
New Hispanic restaurant opening tomorrow on Columbus Ave at the corner of E. Fayette. Will feature Puerto Rican and Dominican food

Opinion piece about the proposed White Pines industrial park in Clay. I'm still scratching my head on why the county is pushing to have this development put there. Traffic on Route 31 is already a disaster


"OCIDA and Onondaga County are obligated to tell the residents everything about this project. Tell the public in an open meeting that this project will encompass over 1,250 acres, 4 million square feet of buildings and 50 acres of paved area. It will be almost half the size of Onondaga Lake. It will make the Amazon complex in Liverpool look tiny. Also, do we get any guarantees that we will not end up like Wisconsin and Foxconn? A $10 billion project shrunk to $672 million and 13,000 jobs to just 1,454. Or the redevelopment project in New London, Connecticut, in which Pfizer was slated to be a tenant. This project that never materialized, costing the taxpayers tens of millions of dollars."
 
A recent video about Syracuse posted by a visitor from Rochester. This guy has done some nice work highlighting some of the interesting developments in upstate NY cities.


I had not heard of the McCarthy Mercantile, is that in the old Gallery's? Thanks for posting, great video

I can’t like this enough. We should have a mega-like option just so I could give this a mega-like!
 
Can't find the Empire Brewery post from a few months ago, but the building owner is back with a redevelopment plan: the Empire space will be carved up into multiple tenant storefronts and the vacant upper-floor office space will be converted to 30 apartments.

I'm surprised (yet not surprised, given the owner's rep) that they've got such a vacancy problem. I used to work in the building; that's solid Class B office space with an industrial loft vibe and great views. The market is soft, but I'm guessing they didn't put a ton of energy into leasing that space up as it emptied out.

I hope the Armory neighborhood isn't becoming too imbalanced with residential conversions. The mixed-use atmosphere has long been a point in its favor.

Multiple tenant storefronts - down the stairs in the basement?
