About Women Build 2007:

I was glad to hear about this story on WAER 88.3 this morning, and it is sourced from the Post Standard below. In the wake of Syracuse's mention in a book titled "The Absolutely Worst Places to Live in America" (Thomas Dunne Books, $14.95), we see just how varied and unreliable these lists can be by the publishing of another list, cited in the article below.

This weekend 20 volunteers gathered at the Wilson Building to start cleaning out 20 years of debris. I was one of them.

In fact, I spent most of the day perched in a window sill on the second floor running the trash chute. I made sure the volunteers on the ground didn't get hurt by falling items.

The Greater Strathmore Neigborhood Association is proud to host the 5th annual Parks Run from Syracuse's historic Onondaga Park. This 4 mile trek will begin and end in the park, while taking you on a visual tour of one of NYS most beautiful family neighborhoods. Enjoy the tremendous views of downtown (and even the windmills of Oneida) from one of the city's highest peaks. The event is open to anyone of any age, and rates are designed for individuals and for entire families- there will be plenty of fun scheduled for non-running participants as well.

I saw this article in the Post Standard today about an old mansion on West Onondaga for sale, and it got me thinking about all of Syracuse's old mansions, in various stages of disrepair.

I have been living in downtown Syracuse, more specifically Franklin Square, for three months now. I moved from Chittenango, NY to Syracuse to be closer to my job in Liverpool and to immerse myself in everything the city has to offer. Since moving downtown I have been thoroughly happy with my decision.

I live in the Syracuse University area and for a college student like myself, there is a lot going on in this area. Westcott Street is just around the corner and offers a lot of unique shops and dining. Alto Cinco and Dorian’s Pizza always provide a good, inexpensive meal. Westcott Cinema is located here and you can always find a good deal at the clothing store Boom Babies.

A few years ago, I had never even thought of becoming a landlord. I was under the impression that I’d be 30 years old and have two kids before I bought my first house. The idea of a 30-year mortgage scared me. It seemed like such a commitment! My fiancé, on the other hand, had bigger and better plans. His family had been in the real estate business for years and he couldn’t wait to get started. So we began looking around the city at properties.

I moved to Eastwood last year from the 'burbs and I just need to tell everyone how cool it is.

First of all, the slogan for our cozy part of the city is "Walkable Eastwood," and it so is! I go for walks at least four times a week and never get tired of the scenery -- cute little houses and families, unique shops and lots of trees. Eastwood is a wonderful neighborhood to stretch your legs.
