=== Business districts === In addition to the dominant [[Destiny USA]] shopping mall in Syracuse's Lakefront neighborhood, many of the city's more traditional neighborhoods continue to have active business districts: * '''[[Downtown Syracuse|Downtown]]:''' [[Armory Square]] has replaced South Salina Street as the main retail and dining area of Downtown Syracuse. Armory Square has around 30 dining establishments, around 20 pubs, bars and clubs, and over 50 other retail stores. Similarly, but on a smaller scale, there is the [[Hanover Square, Syracuse|Hanover Square]] area. * '''[[Eastwood, Syracuse|Eastwood]]:''' Calling itself "the village within the city", this former village still has a retail corridor along James Street. * '''[[Little Italy, Syracuse|Little Italy]]:''' A neighborhood with Italian origins, Little Italy (part of the [[Near Northeast, Syracuse|Near Northeast]] neighborhood) has several blocks of bakeries, restaurants, pizzerias, shops, and services. Before large-scale Italian immigration, this neighbourhood was heavily populated by German immigrants.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Koch |first=Daniel |date=2022 |title=Working-Class Germans in the Salt City: Syracuse, New York, 1860–1916 |journal=New York History |volume=103 |issue=2 |pages=361–376|doi=10.1353/nyh.2022.0043 |s2cid=257206983 }}</ref> *'''[[Sedgwick, Syracuse|Sedgwick Farms]]:''' An affluent neighborhood on the northeast side of the city near Eastwood containing many architecturally-distinct, large, classic homes including a [[Sears Home]]<ref>{{Cite web|last1=Wright|first1=Gloria|last2=Post-St|first2=The|last3=ard|date=May 28, 2011|title=Syracuse house, which came from a Sears catalog, is one of only seven of its kind in U.S.|url=https://www.syracuse.com/news/2011/05/syracuse_house_which_came_from.html|access-date=September 29, 2021|website=syracuse|language=en|archive-date=September 29, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210929212359/https://www.syracuse.com/news/2011/05/syracuse_house_which_came_from.html|url-status=live}}</ref> designed by many noted architects. The neighborhood has historically been home to city leaders, state politicians, and leaders in Syracuse's industry and economy. *'''[[Strathmore, Syracuse|Strathmore]]:''' A neighborhood on the southwest of the city that largely features well-maintained older, residential homes, including some designed by [[Ward Wellington Ward]]. There are several buildings listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]]. The neighborhood is anchored by [[Hiawatha lake]] in [[Onondaga Park]]. * '''[[University Hill, Syracuse|University Hill]]:''' [[Marshall Street, Syracuse|Marshall Street]], along with its terminus South Crouse Avenue, is lined with stores, bars, and restaurants, primarily catering to the student population on "The Hill", as well as the over 25,000 people who work there daily. East Genesee Street at the northwestern corner of the neighborhood has several retail establishments, as well. * '''[[Westcott, Syracuse|Westcott]]:''' This neighborhood east of University Hill is inhabited by a wide variety of people, increasingly including some college students as the university grows but still primarily local families and residents. Single-family homes and two-unit apartments comprise the majority of housing. Westcott is known as a bohemian and liberal quarter, and each September hosts the Westcott Street Cultural Fair. The main business district is on Westcott Street between Beech and Dell streets and includes restaurants, bars, a consignment shop, and other businesses. <gallery mode="packed"> File:Armorysquaresyr.jpg|[[Armory Square]] File:Columbus Circle Syracuse.jpg|alt=|[[Montgomery Street–Columbus Circle Historic District|Columbus Circle]], Syracuse, NY File:FranklinSquare1.jpg|alt=|[[Franklin Square, Syracuse]] File:FranklinSquare2.jpg|Franklin Square File:136EGenesee.jpg|alt=|Buildings in [[Downtown]] File:Gere Bank Building.jpg|alt=|[[Gere Bank Building]] File:Hotel Syracuse, New York.jpg|alt=|[[Marriott Syracuse Downtown|Hotel Syracuse Downtown]] File:McCarthy building.jpg|alt=|[[South Salina Street Downtown Historic District]] File:Dey's Plaza Building.jpg|alt=|[[South Salina Street Downtown Historic District]] File:Amos Block Building.JPG|alt=|The [[Amos Block]] building in downtown </gallery>
