Seneca Turnpike (NY-175), the property benefits from more than 24,000 vehicles per day, offering unmatched visibility and accessibility. The site is surrounded by powerful demand drivers: Onondaga Community College with over 8,000 students, faculty, and event traffic from the SRC Arena; Upstate University Hospital – Community Campus, a 314-bed medical center with hundreds of staff and thousands of visitors daily; Van Duyn Center for Rehabilitation; and established senior living communities.

Zoning under the Onondaga Hill Business District (OHB) supports a wide range of uses, including retail, office, medical, food service, and institutional. The property is offered “as is,” with the owner open to negotiating capital improvements for the right tenant.
