“New York Central Railroad Passenger and Freight Station”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

New York Central Railroad Passenger Station is a former railroad station in Syracuse, New York. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 2009.^[2] The former station currently is the home to Spectrum's Central New York operations.

History

The passenger station, the third of ultimately four stations built by the New York Central Railroad to serve Syracuse was built in 1936 when the railroad tracks that previously went through the city of Syracuse via Washington Street at grade with pedestrians and automobiles were elevated above city streets, is of Art Deco design. Both the station and the new elevated route opened for business on September 24, 1936.

In 1962, after the purchase of the rail right of way near the station by New York State for the construction of Interstate 690 facilitating a new route for passenger trains through Syracuse, New York Central moved to a smaller "temporary" station near the freight yards in East Syracuse. The construction of the highway immediately behind the former station led to the demolition of all its train platforms with the exception of the one connected to the building and the one farthest from the building. The interior of the terminal was used as a Midtown Motors car dealership in the late 1950s to early 1960s. Greyhound continued to use it a bus terminal from 1964 until a fire in 1996.^[3] Meanwhile, train service remained at the "temporary" East Syracuse facility well into the Amtrak era. Bus and train service were reintegrated in 1998 at the William F. Walsh Regional Transportation Center in north Syracuse.

The passenger building was renovated from 2001 to 2003 by Time Warner Cable (now part of Charter Spectrum), both to serve as their main office for their central New York operations, and as the Syracuse bureau/studios for News 10 Now (now Spectrum News Central New York). It currently serves both roles today.^[3]^[4] In 2016, New York State announced plans to restore one of the remaining station platforms visible by drivers on Interstate 690. The platform located across the highway from the station.^[5]
