The first station was located at Onondaga and Clinton Streets. The second station (225 West Jefferson Street in the
Armory Square neighborhood) was built in 1877 and was used to 1940. During that earlier period trains ran on the street level through Syracuse. Per new city regulations, the DLW's tracks were raised to become elevated by 1940. Until the mid-1940s, the station was staffed by both freight and passenger agents. The
station for the
New York Central Railroad, passing east–west through Syracuse, was about one mile away. By 1946, passenger train traffic to and from the south would decrease to two trains in each direction: a night train, the
Interstate Express to
Philadelphia and a day train to Hoboken. (Continuing south, the
Interstate Express made a connection in Binghamton with the
New York Mail for traveling to Hoboken.) Additionally, by 1949, trains north to Oswego had been discontinued. In 1958, the DLW discontinued passenger trains to Syracuse, and the station became used as a bus station. An extension to the building was added in approximately 1961. As of 2022, the building has been used for several decades as an architectural firm's offices. ==See also==
