Metro Center Amenities 

During the day, there are many restaurants and food vendors nearby. There is a café in the building on the main level that will serve beverages, sandwiches and snacks. There is a common area on the lower level to enjoy your meal and converse before class or on break. There is also considerable dining, entertainment, and event activity near the Atrium in downtown Syracuse, and the area is well patrolled.

The Metro Center will not be offering food or beverages nor will kitchen or refrigeration be available. Food and drinks may be consumed within the Metro Center, subject to faculty consent, with the standard advice for careful enjoyment.

Restrooms at the Atrium are located at the north end of the building. The Atrium is home to a variety of businesses and the restrooms are secured. In your classroom you will find information posted that gives you the security code to use so that you may access the facilities.

Classrooms and Offices

There are three classrooms in the main suite, a seminar room, and other rooms for specific functions. Another suite across the hall contains a large classroom, breakout area, and office. A third suite has a classroom, meeting room, faculty offices, and a breakout area. Coat closets are provided.

There are two carrels in the main suite equipped with desktop computers and a B&W printer/copier for student use. It is advisable to have your printing jobs on a flash/thumb drive for best service. There is also a public copy center across the street.

The Metro Center is a wireless environment. There are AC power receptacles throughout.

We have created common areas, open spaces, and smaller meeting rooms with comfortable furniture for small group discussions. Offices are provided for faculty to share for student advisement. The classroom tables and chairs are designed to be easily reconfigured for diverse teaching requirements.

Books and ID Cards

The College Bookstore will have a presence at the Metro Center as needed. No student supplies will be routinely available.

If you do not have a current SUNY Oswego ID card, we will have Metro Center staff to assist you with taking the photo and having a card made for you. The ID card will be important for parking discounts and library services.

Staffing

The Metro Center is initially staffed by a resident Director, Administrative Assistant, Graduate Assistant, and a Graduate Fellow. A staff person will always be on site when the Metro Center is open.

Building Security

A security guard will be posted during evening hours up to facility closing. Most classes will conclude by 9:15 PM and everyone should plan to exit the building by 9:30 PM.

Atrium entrances will be clearly marked for the Metro Center visitors. Occasionally certain entrances will be closed depending on the hour and other activities and events near the Atrium. Please be prepared to show your ID card if the security guard or other building official requests.

Hall-McChesney Building

Address

402 South Franklin Street
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
The southwest corner of S. Franklin and Wlaton Sts. is occupied by a large commercial bock that was built in two sections, each with a slightly different window arrangement.  The south section has a cast-iron storefront.  Brick pilasters divide its facade into five bays.  The storefront of the north section is supported by banded masonry piers.  Brick pilasters divide the facade of this section into three bays.  Ornamental brickwork and round-arched windows distinguish the top story.  A stepped roof line - a popular design feature in the district -is ornamented with a band of dentils and unifies the block.  The building was originally used as a publishing and printing firm.  A modern sign on this building identifies it as the Butler Building.  This building is now home to a salon, boutique and restaurant, with several floors of loft apartments above.

Bentley-Settle Building

Address

120 Walton St
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
The brick building was used as a warehouse by  the Bentley-Settle wholesale grocery firm; its advertising is still visable on the west facade of the building.  The firm organized in 1896 when R.E. Bentley purchased the interests of wholesale grocers G.N. Crouse & Company, and continues as a wholesale business until 1973.  Note the grouping of windows under the arches.  Fine brickwork embellishes the stepped roof line.

McArthur, Wirth & Cooney Building

Address

221 Walton St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Fire-damamged, slated for demolition, and called an eyesore not too long ago, this building now brightens the westernmost border of the Armory Square Historical District near the Onondaga Creek.  Onondaga Dynamo Works built and first occupied this three-story warehouse structure in 1899.  McArthur, Wirth & Cooney, a supplier of tools and machinery, had owned the building for most of the 20th century.  Like its immediate neighbors, the building is of heavy post-and-beam construction, but its curtain wall type facade and a prominent skylight in the center give it distinction.

Misener Building

Address

200 Walton St
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
This commercial block was originally built in 1873 as Gray Brothers Shoe Factory.  Note the sign advertising Gray Shoes above the third story.  Brickwork around the windows and sandstone sills are the only ornamental features.  The brick cladding of the street-frame, added in the 1930's, harmonizes with the material used in the older building.  Steel-frame construction made large windows possible.  This, along with fire-proofing, made the 20th century factory safer and more efficent than its 19th century predecessors.

This Italianate brick structure, designed by local architect Archimedes Russell was built as a retail sotre and warehouse circa 1870.  In the 1930's, the top floor and the Italianate metal cornice were removed.  Ornate metal hood moldings give the facade a rich decorative effect.

The building at 307-09, on the left was originally built as a foundry in 1874, and was occupied by the Galvanized Iron Works.  The adjacent building once served as a factory with lodgings in the upper stories.  Both buildings were later owned and used by Witherill, a local dry-goods company.  In the early 1990's, a fifth story with a galvanized metal cornice was added.  By the 1870's galvanized sheet metal replaced wood and stone for architectual elements.  The adjacent Renaissance Revival Building at 311-13, has cast-iron keystones in its arched windows and a Neo-Classical metal pediment, probably an early 20th century addition.

Donohue Building

Address

312 S. Clinton St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
The physician Florence Q. Donohue built this structure in 1885 as an office and residence.  Reeded pilasters divide the facade into two bays.  The grouping of windows and the variety of textures make this building a good example of Queen Anne style.  Noteworthy is the ornate gable with two circular windows, and the original stained-glass building sign in the center of the second story.

Butler Building

Address

317 S. Clinton St
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

A distinguising feature of this commercial building with its cast-iron storefront is the vertical groupings of the windows under arches.  This widely used design was introduced by H.H. Richardson, and developed by Henri Louis Sullivan, both noted architects.  The pilasters with ornate capitals seperating window bays are Neo-Classical Revival elements.  This structure was built in 1898.

Built in 1914, this steel-framed structure is owned and occupied by Onondaga Music, the oldest retail company in continous operation in the city.  Copper-covered spadrels are placed between brick pilasters (flat columns) that rise from the second to the fourth story.  Being easier to work with than most other metals, copper was often used for ornamental work in architescture.  Ornamental brickwork runs along the upper cornice line.

Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Armory

Address

W. Jefferson St. and S. Franklin St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Completed in 1907, this was the third armory to be built on the site.  Constructed of brick and limestone, it originally contained a drill hall, rifle and pistol ranges, a riding shed and stables for the horses.  The armory is actually three buildings in one.  The oldest building, on the west side, was once used to quarter calvalry.  The building on the east side housed the infantry.  The two buildings were connected with the construction of an arched roof auditorium.  As a result of the original deed that conveyed the land to the State, the grounds that surround the armory are public property and known as Jefferson Park.  The armory is now home to the Museum of Science and Technology (MOST) and boasts an Imax Theater among its attractions.

University Building

Address

120 E. Washington St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Built by Syracuse University in 1897 on donated land, this Renaissance Revival building was originally a combined commercial venture and quarters for the University's Law School.  Like the renaissance palazzo, small ground floor shops face the street, with the grand foyer and stairway leading to the main public floor above.  The very high arched windows of the main floor are typical of the style.  Above this are the office floors, topped by an elaborate metal cornice.

White Memorial Building

S. Salina St. and E. Washington St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Built in 1876 and designed by Joseph Lyman Silsbee, this High Victorian Gothic style building was constructed by the sons of Hamilton and Horace White.  Particularly  noteworthy for its elaborately sculpted entry, complete with gargoyles, the iron cresting atop its slate roof, the pointed arches over the third story windows and the decorative bands of black and sand colored brick contrasting with the dark red brick background.  The newly renovated White Memorial Building is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Niagara Mohawk Building

Address

300 Erie Blvd. W
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Designed by Bley and Lyman, this building was completed in 1932.  It is a classic example of the Art Deco style popular in the 1930's but rarely done as profusely as here.  The geometrically stylized metalwork is climaxed by “The Spirit of Light” statue over the main entrance, one of the first examples of stainless steel sculpture in architecture.  The building is brightly illuminated in different colors at night.

Onondaga Savings Bank

Erie Blvd. W
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
This ten story “skyscraper” was one of Syracuse's first steel frame structures, built in 1897.  The ornate Renaissance ceiling on the main level is the work of Angelo Magnanti, who designed the interior of the U.S. Supreme Court Building.  The ceiling was painted by William Schwartz in 1931, with a replica of a 15th Century astronomer's map.  The arched murals by Schartz document important events in the history of Onondaga County.

Post Office Building

Address

N. Clinton St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
This building is a prime example of the Neo-Classical architecture often used in the design of public buildings from 1900-1940.  Built in 1928, the original design called for a building that would be bounded on one side by the Erie Canal but before construction was completed the canal had been filled in and replaced by a boulevard.  The only design change allowed was an entrance on Erie Boulevard.  Housing federal offices, and the main Syracuse Post Office, the building has undergone extensive renovations.  The Pyramid Company has bought the 170,000 square foot building and maintains the building's characteristics, such as plaster ceilings, marble floors, staircase and columns.

Third National Bank

N. Salina St. and James St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Syracuse Savings Bank

Address

132 N. Salina St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Designed by Syracuse Architect Joseph Silsbee, the building is a masterpiece of the Victorian Gothic style, in contrasting tan Ohio and red New Jersey sandstone.  Windows with pointed arches, sometimes grouped in threes, are important to the overall effect.  Italian stonecutters carved the decorative pieces.  When it was built (1875) its 170' tower made it the tallest building in the city.  A ride to the top in the city's first ever elevator cost ten cents.  Inside are murals of old Syracuse, painted by local artist Hall Groat in 1977.  The building is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Clinton Square

Address

Clinton St. and Salina St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Power District
In 1820 the Erie Canal intersected the village crossroads here, and barges unloaded near the old Salina Street Bridge.  On January 1, 1870, 20,00 people gathered in the square for a barbeque sponsored by local brewer and tavern owner John Greenway.  Intended to feed the “needy poor,” the feast attracted many “well-to-do folks from the city and the towns.”  Clinton Square was renovated several years ago and is now the site for many different festivals held downtown throughout the year.  In the winter months, an outdoor ice skating rink is available to the public.

Gere Building

Address

119 E. Water St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Possibly Syracusan Charles Colton's finest work, this former bank is a notable adaptation of the style developed by Louis Sullivan in the 1890s for tall buildings.  The facade has three unique sections; combined, they form a unified whole.  On the street level there are a number of Roman details, while the second floor forms a transition between the massive first story and the lighter upper portion.  Vertical lines are emphasized in the three upper floors and are topped by a wide projecting cornice of delicately ornamented terra-cotta panels.  The use of fine materials includes granite, light brick and terra-cotta.  Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building was designed for Congressman James J. Belden, who named it for his father-in-law, Robert Gere.  Inside, the building retains much original detail, including iron stairwells, marble floors and wainscoting.  Each floor has two fireplaces and several remain complete with ornate marble and paneling.  Some of Colton's original frosted glass with Gere's initals remain in the window.

Gridley Building

Address

103 E. Water St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Designed by Horatio N. White in 1869, this trapezoidal building was originally built for the Onondaga County Savings Bank.  It was sold in 1899 to Frances Gridley.  The building is made entirely of limestone and mixes a number of different window sizes in its facade.  The south and west fronts in Second Empire style were given the most attractive treatment, while one side is flat because it once  faced the canal.  In the late 1800s, the clock was the city's official timepiece.  The clock has old wooden hands and 12” high Roman numerals on the four gold leafed dials.  The building was saved from demolition and renovated in the 1970s.  It is now home to several law offices and the Italian restaurant Apetito.  The building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

Phoenix Building

Address

123 E. Water St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
This was a complex of four buildings sometimes known as the “Phoenix Block.”  These buildings are the oldest in downtown Syracuse and were originally canal loft “double-enders.”  This design allowed access for business from the street on the south, and from the Erie Canal on the north.  Windows of both front and rear upper floors have wooden lintels done in a simple Federal motif.   The large upper floor windows indicate that they were originally doorway openings for hauling goods up by block and tackle from the canal boats docked below.  These buildings were constructed after fire destroyed 21 buildings in Hanover Square.  It is thought they were named after the mythical bird, the Phoenix, which rose from the ashes.

Dana Building

Address

125 E. Water St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

Armory Square
Major” Dana erected this building, adjoining to the Phoenix, to house his crockery and dry goods business.  In 1861 a fourth floor was added in a simple Italianate style.  The cornice was made to match that of the Phoenix, creating a continuous facade along most of the block.
