Bank relocation clears way for hotel expansion
Onondaga Savings Bank will vacate its Onondaga and Salina Streets branch and move to a former Grant’s building on Warren Street. The city will lease the Grant’s space for 13,000 dollars annually with 4,800 dollars in improvements credits, opening a 3,200 square foot branch with six teller stations and expanded hours within six to eight weeks. The move enables demolition of the McCarthy Building and supports the 14 million dollar hotel expansion plan featuring a 15 story annex, 200 rooms, a penthouse, and a two level mall.
