网爆门 Pursuing Development of New Full-Service Hotel on University Avenue
As part of its comprehensive housing strategy, 网爆门 today announced its intention to pursue the development of a new full-service hotel to be constructed on University Avenue. This effort follows the University鈥檚 recent conversion of the former Sheraton 网爆门 Hotel & Conference Center into Orange Hall, a residence hall that now houses roughly 400 students. It also builds on the University鈥檚 recent acquisition of the Hotel Skyler Syracuse.
鈥淔ollowing the transformation of the former Sheraton Hotel, it was clear that there was still a significant need for additional hotel and event space in the area immediately adjacent to our campus,鈥 says Brett Padgett, senior vice president and chief financial officer. 鈥淲hile we are in the early stages of this process, we are confident a new hotel will not only serve our campus community well, it will also further strengthen the University鈥檚 role as a vibrant and integral part of the City of Syracuse and Onondaga County.”
At this time, the University is planning to build a roughly 200-room, full-service hotel that will have a three-meal restaurant and event space. The new hotel will be built at the corner of University Avenue and Harrison Street across from the University Avenue Garage. University leaders are currently meeting with high-profile hotel brands to determine which brand may meet the needs and expectations of our campus community. At the same time, the University is also collaborating closely with Onondaga County leadership to ensure that this effort is aligned with and advances the future needs of the city and county communities.
The University will focus on selecting a brand partner while advancing the design, development and permitting phases. Following Board of Trustees approval, the University anticipates opening the new hotel in the fall of 2027.
