Every year a staple of this guide is a series of testimonials from our friends, neighbors and community leaders talking about what they love about living here. Year after year, their answers are both consistent and surprising. We hear common threads of why this is such a great place to live and raise a family; how this region offers a colorful palette of arts, culture and education; and how a weekend here can include a hike in the woods, a game at the Dome and a five-star meal downtown no matter the season. But we also hear about caring friends and colleagues, unique neighborhoods, growing businesses, and how people have found their way back to call Central New York home after residing in other parts of the country. Central New York is a community of neighbors who are eager to see this region not only survive, but thrive — and thrive it has. Our community is growing in new and exciting ways all of the time. Whether you are looking for a place to start a business or raise a family — or both — this area has it all: jobs, homes, communities, great schools, health care, growing industries, countless ways to have fun, and one of the best quality of life standards in the entire country. We are focused on the future and working tirelessly to position ourselves on the front lines of the next generation of technology development, new innovations, educational leadership and health care breakthroughs. Talk to these friends, neighbors and community leaders and they will tell you what this place is all about — people chasing the future and pinning it down, right here in Central New York. Businesses of all shapes and sizes are investing in the region and its people. We are working, planning, building, strategizing and growing — together. There is so much that makes this region special and unique — our seasons are the best example of that! You’ll need your sunglasses in July and your snow boots in January, but we know how to have great fun wearing both — sometimes at the same time. We hope this publication helps you understand what a fantastic place the Central New York is as you consider making our home, your home. Welcome to Central New York. We hope you love it as much as we do!

The biggest hit was in 2013, when the team lost $125,000. The City of Auburn, which owns the team, no longer has the money to support the franchise, so in order to keep baseball in Auburn, the team must become self-sufficient.

  • Pre-New Deal Work Relief in Onondaga County, New York, 1931-1933
    EMERGENCY EMPLOYMENT, PUBLIC ENJOYMENT: PRE-NEW DEAL WORK RELIEF IN ONONDAGA COUNTY, NEW YORK, 1931-1933 A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Grant S. Johnson August 2014 © Grant S. Johnson 2014 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the impact of the Onondaga County Emergency Work Bureau (OCEWB) on Onondaga County from 1931 to 1933. The OCEWB was created as part of the Temporary Emergency Relief Administration (TERA), a pre-New Deal work relief initiative by Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The work begins with an examination of the history of work relief in New York State before the Great Depression, followed by a discussion of the formation of TERA, which allowed for the creation of the Onondaga County Emergency Work Bureau. The projects, personnel, challenges, and ultimate dissolution of the OCEWB are discussed with an emphasis on local political conflicts that stymied potential successful projects. Two case studies, the Onondaga Lake Parkway and Village of Jordan Erie Canal Park, are undertaken to illustrate the impact of the OCEWB on different parts of the county from the 1930s to the present day. iii BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Grant Johnson was born in Dallas, Texas on August 31, 1979. Late that year, he moved with his family to Downers Grove, Illinois, and then to Manlius, New York in 1990. In 1997 he entered Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York.
