Development in and Around Syracuse Discussion

Didn't realize the former New Venture Gear campus was 80%+ full. I'm sure most of the jobs don't pay what NVG paid, but it's still good to see.

Former auto plant in DeWitt would hold Frito-Lay warehouse

The proposal is being reviewed by the town of DeWitt planning board.

I'm not seeing any major benefit from that +Skyway idea.

I read yesterday Eisenhower didn’t originally want the interstates through inner cities, but Congress overruled him at the time.

I wish it was a joke.

Oh. Well. I guess that tells you what I think about that proposal...

Minch Lewis is a bright man who's 180 degrees wrong on this matter.

He's sidelined on this one, which is why they pulled this PR stunt on the day when the actual decisionmakers were in Syracuse.

 

[OttoMets]

I read yesterday Eisenhower didn’t originally want the interstates through inner cities, but Congress overruled him at the time.

Correct, he obviously wasn't involved in the planning and was very surprised when he saw that the finished product plowed through all these neighborhoods. He was advocating for the European model of intercity highways that end where the city street grids begin.

New life for the former Grimaldi's on Carrier Circle:

New Italian restaurant with zany, ‘craveable’ dishes coming to East Syracuse

How about we build a giant slingshot that fires thru traffic from the soon-to-be-former DestinyUSA to the Jamesville Quarry? A handful of vehicles might miss every year and it will be tremendously expensive, but that's the cost of progress, amirite?

 

[shandeezy7]

The former Stoop restaurant has been converted into two Airbnb units (upstairs, I’m assuming? Guessing ground floor is still a retail/restaurant space). Might be a solid Gameday option for out of town travelers.

Not development-related, but it will be nice to have Sean back in CNY. Although, his writing will be missed out here in Buffalo.

Walsh declares Skyline Apartments unfit for human occupancy again after inspection

The order will stop public money from coming to the owners

That’s a shame. Seems like a real classy establishment the Greens have up there.

According to my wife Kasai Ramen is moving into the Blue Tusk and the deal has been in the works while the Tusk was still under their lease.

Kasai Ramen? A non bar!?

I was told it’s going to be a bar and may be a second business by the same owner.

That's disappointing ... Kasai Ramen is OK for a decent downtown place, but since most COVID restrictions have been lifted, I've been once and it was underwhleming.

New craft beer bar to take over soon-to-be-vacated Blue Tusk space in Armory Square

Taproom on Walton will be operated by owner of Kasai Ramen.

This does not endear me to his businesses.

why's that?

 

[Cusefan0307]

There was no dispute. The landlord picked the tenant in 2018 and had full intention of pushing blue tusk out as soon as their lease was up. There’s leaked text messages involved from what I’ve heard.

Even if true, it is not the fault of the new tenant. And the building owner is new too (3 years ago)... sure... likely bought the building with a different plan than what is in there. I don't see why that is unusual or bad.

I understand what you’re saying, but a lot of Tusk regulars are going to be hard to win over.
