Historic Walking Tour of Downtown Syracuse
Syracuse, from its earliest beginings, was a crossroads city, a place
where travelers from north and south, east and west, crossed paths in
pursuit of land, employment and a market for their goods. There was
abundant salt and potatoes, limestone and timber, good crop land and
grazing for dairy herds. All of these factors contributed to the
emergence of Syracuse as an imporant commercial gateway to western New
York and provided the substance that you see evidenced in the
historical buildings of the city's commerical center.
A city is a marvlous place - it's storehouse of historical fact and a repository of sometimes forgotten custom and legend. It is the buildings, the structures of a city that transcend time and provide us with a window on both the past and the present. And the commercial center of a city- downtown - sets the tone for the city's vitality and progress.
