When you land
Things to do in Syracuse
Syracuse sits at the center of New York State, where the Erie Canal once carried salt from its springs to markets across the country. Today the city’s largest employers are Syracuse University, SUNY Upstate Medical University and the region’s hospitals, alongside defense electronics and engineering firms and a growing drone and advanced manufacturing sector. A major Micron semiconductor investment planned in nearby Clay has brought new attention to the region from engineers, builders and suppliers.
