That is the platform used for the North Trains to Watertown and Massena and Montreal.. I caught many a train there and the now gone too EAST SYRACUSE station. That is until I found the Lackawanna which I liked better than the New York Central.
I can imagine an awful 1960s pitch guy arguing how the platform on the interstate "symbolically represents railways passing the torch on to the new beautiful freeways of our city's future"
The station was first sold to a car dealer then their friend Greyhound. Bus companies learned to dump heat, light, cleaning on cities. And how to avoid fuel taxes and get grants to run. And lots more! Greyhound at one time was a American owned company.
I was born in Syracuse and lived in the area until I was 11 (though I was on of those suburban people who actually lived in nearby Liverpool); I have a lot of fond memories of the Onondaga Lake Park, but they were always punctuated by my parents making it extremely clear to me that we were absolutely not to even touch the water under any circumstances.
Solvay Process water. Lackawanna RR had 5 beach stops on it on the way to Oswego. Until the chemical dumping by Process. Honeywell did try to clean it up .
It used to utterly stink there when I went running on the Shore Line Trail at Long Branch a few years ago, but I think the Honeywell treatment made it a bit better. But yeah that lake is a lost cause lol
Well you do realize the water itself is not the issue? It’s the sediment in the bottom of the lake, which if it gets disturbed will disrupt mercury sediment. The water itself won’t do anything to you, if you were in the middle of the lake where it’s deep, you could swim and be okay. The rowing teams have gotten in the water many times, it’s just a little nasty.
No not cursed by highways. Cursed by scumbag politicians who try to blame the highways when in reality they funnel all the money into their pockets. And flood the city with refugees. Over 15k on the Northside alone. Estimated 40k to 60k refugees for the entire city. 1960s was syracuses peak at 220k population. When it got near 100k they started dumping refugees. Cause once a city goes below 100k they are no longer get major city funding. Average median income is/was $15k. A city named after an Italian city because it reminded the man who named it of his favorite poem that talked about an ancient city of Italy. He was the pioneer of syracuse. His grandson invented the Franklin automobile. Which was considered the first air cooled production automobile. This city has been bleed dry and is a prime example of what happens when corrupt politicians take over and citizens fall asleep at the wheel. They don't call it sleepy cuse for nothin. Worlds largest pillow can be seen up on SU.
@@stevetree7249 I love Regular Car Reviews, but this was just overly harsh to a city that just so happens to like cars. I want him to say one nice thing about car-centric development
@@peskypigeonx It exists and continues to exist. There has to be something good about it. Something that is nothing good about it never lasts, even things that did have some good things didn't last, like the USSR. Yes it does have it's flaws and we need to move away from it, but we can't retrofit what is already built, not without tons of destruction and going against the will of the people. Ironically, car centric development did the exact same
I-81 goes around the edge of Watertown, around the edge of Cortland, around the edge of Binghamton, around the edge of Scranton, around the edge of Wilkes Barre, around the edge of Harrisburg. But it cuts through the middle of Syracuse.
To be fair, at the time of I-81's construction, Syracuse was the more bustling city in its NY route, and as of 2021 is still the most populous city on the entire route. They probably thought it was a good idea to have a commuter route in the middle and it also stemmed from two things: Syracuse University and Onondaga Hill, two major education sectors. They're now trying to think of a way to tear down that stretch between the Post-Standard Building and ESF and make it like a tunnel of sorts. There's no way they could re-route an artery like that in my opinion.
@@austinsmith5782 The current plan seems to be to re-route I-81 through the current path of 481, which I think would work but I know that a lot of the suburbs hate that because 81 is "too important" for their economy that they need traffic going straight through the city (bleugh).
I’m dyin! I live in Onondaga County and the majority of us agree wholeheartedly with everything in this video. And I’m still pissed the commuter train failed! I could walk from my house to the station and ride to work. Such a novel F’ing idea!! Grrrr id even ride the bus if it came to my freaking town. I’m shocked you didn’t mention that Onondaga Lake is considered to be one of the most polluted lakes in the country, if not the world
On Track was never finished, and Centos Ciy bus hated it. It was competition. The bus industry has alot of mob people in it. Just like the oil industry. They are the same people caught selling polluted motor fuel from rigged pumps!
Who agrees? I live up the road from the regional transportation center and I haven’t used it once in my entire life. I agree the commuter train was a good idea, but they made the hub downtown for a reason.
Honeywell also spent billions cleaning the lake. It’s absolutely disgusting but it’s not nearly as bad as it use to be. It’s probably 1000 times better.
Onondaga Lake(shown at 2:32) used to be on of the most polluted lakes in all of the US. it's currently still in a clean up, but it still has a looooong way to go
I graduated from Syracuse, its a great school, the city has gone downhill but the surrounding areas like the finger lakes,Oneida lake, and the hills to the east that lead to Cooperstown are magnificent.
Welcome!! Lived here all 46 years of my life. Its a complicated city. It will give back what you put in. If you want to experience what old school red lining tactics can do to a city, you can find that here. If you want to see the power of what a community can do when it pulls together to improve itself, you can find that too! We are a very diverse community. So if you bring the right energy and outlook, you will have a wonderful stay!
I just spent a couple of days in Syracuse and I found it fairly pleasant for the most part. We stayed downtown, so we could walk to bars and restaurants and the people were very friendly.
Truthfully botched doing anything meaningful in this city. It’s like you’ve never traveled outside of big cities before and experienced quaint lifestyles.
I think it's a slighty jokey video (right??) but yeah this has NYC/Westchester vibes all over it lol. I'm used to Downstaters though making fun of my hometown.
@@austinsmith5782 Yeah I understand but the condescending comments are a little much. The places that he went to are ridiculous and no one in the city really pays attention to.
Glad to see you love on Upstate New York! I grew up in Rochester, so it's always nice to see people visit the region and enjoy themselves, because we've got a lot going for us that doesn't get talked about enough.
thats not the prison, ive lived here all my life and i GENUINELY do not know wtf this building is. chances are its downtown cause of the skybridge, but it might have been renovated.
The comment about the flags in the RTC was right on. At least you didn't film that monstrously that is Destiny. The worse part about the train platform along 81, they used to have statues there, looking like people waiting for the train. They were really cool. Then they were removed...
Nailed it but only scratched the surface :) I lived in Syracuse for 9 years, ran a warehouse that was across the tracks from Armory Square before we moved to a bigger space near Dewitt Yard. Was a very bicycle friendly place since the city was small enough you could get across all of it in less than a half hour. Traffic was low enough & there were enough alternative routes to the stroads outside downtown you could be decently safe without dedicated bike lanes. Heard it's changed since I left in 2018, but it was easy to live decently without much money. The student neighborhoods east of SU campus had plenty of permanent residents as well, good place to live. Cheap housing, tree lined streets, multiple parks & corner shops within walking distance
the real treat is 150 ford ave- tomatoes to the ceiling, tender okra longer than your fingers, and watermelons sweeter than you've ever tasted. come kick it southside style with soft serve ice cream, some bottle rockets, and a motor bike ride
Ok fair point to the bad checkerboard color scheme but FFS if I have to look at either another glass or monochromatic building, trying to be Apple Store hip I’ll scream.
The Clinton Exchange building was originally the U.S. Post Office. When the water feature was built in Clinton Square, one of the city's councilmen said the fountains were going to be like the ones at The Bellagio!

There are alot of things in Syracuse that I didn't include because I didn't have the time to film them (I was there visiting family). Otherwise I would have included alot of the University, the state fair grounds, the mall and other neighborhoods
The red white blue lines on the Amtrack locomotives will never stop being funny to me, almost as if New York and that small area around it never gave up being a Dutch colony? I know it's probably a reference to the red white and blue used on the US flag but the way its orientated on those locomotives is almost exactly like our flag (example at 4:30 in the video).
If you love canals you should visit Lowell Mass. It’s not the nicest city but they’ve got a ton of preserved canals with museums in the old mills, definitely worth a visit!

I used to have so much fun in Syracuse, but now, it's not like it use to be when I was growing up in Syracuse, R.I.P Syracuse but it still hanging in there even looks so deadly, and even during this pandemic going on and I still miss a lot of people's used too hang out with other people's....
That must have been a long, long time ago. I grew up here in the 80's and 90's. Dangerous, boarded up stores, downtown was empty, gangs ran everything. It's so, so much better now. Still not enough to keep kids out of trouble. But, then again, the last Superintendent closed one of the high schools.
