You know that feeling when you crest the hill on 81 and there it is…the Dome glowing in the distance? That’s when you know you’re home. Nothing else in Syracuse hits quite like that first glimpse.
And today, with the first snow falling, it’s that familiar reminder that winter’s back… and so is that quiet sense of comfort only this city can bring. The streets, the cold, the glow of the Dome…it all just feels right. Syracuse has a way of letting you know you’re exactly where you belong.

Wegmans absolutely loves when there’s a storm in the forecast…especially that first one of the season. Why? Because like clockwork, we all rush there the moment we hear “snow,” stocking up on bread, milk, and “essentials” we’re totally fine without any other day. The storm might barely touch us, but it’s tradition at this point.

When you’re flying over the city, the path of I-81 is impossible to miss. It runs straight through Syracuse, connecting the north and south in a way you can only fully appreciate from the air.
Soon, that view will change forever as the community grid project moves forward, altering the landscape and the way the city looks from above.
It’s powerful to capture this moment in time before everything looks different.

For decades, this Gothic landmark stood silent over downtown Syracuse. Once a sacred space that had fallen still, the Mizpah Tower, formerly home to Syracuse’s First Baptist Church, watched over Columbus Circle as the world moved on around it.
But not anymore.
The Mizpah is stirring again. This six-story masterpiece is being reborn as a wine sanctuary and event space, a place where laughter will fill the arches where prayers once echoed and music will rise where silence lingered for too long. Soon, people will gather here again to celebrate, connect, and create new stories under the same soaring ceilings that once inspired awe.
“Mizpah” means watchtower, a biblical promise that even when apart, we are never truly alone. That sense of hope and renewal is at the heart of this transformation.
This revival is being led by Michael Greene, former Syracuse Common Councilor, one-time mayoral candidate, and owner of Harvey’s Garden. His vision is breathing new life into one of Syracuse’s most beautiful historic spaces, turning what was once forgotten into a destination that will bring people together again.
The soul of Syracuse is rising once more.

Tucked just minutes from Syracuse sits a place every golfer wishes they’d found sooner. It’s called The Albatross, and it’s rewriting what an indoor golf experience can be.
Â
From the moment you walk in, you know nothing was overlooked. Three state-of-the-art Full Swing simulators (the same ones used by Tiger Woods) anchor the space, surrounded by warm wood tones, leather seating, and the kind of attention to detail that makes you want to stay a while.
Â
There’s Neat, the bourbon bar, where a post-round pour feels as refined as the swing that earned it. And when the clubs are packed away, the night doesn’t end…game night with the guys plays out on the big screen, and the energy feels every bit as real as a Saturday on the course.
Â
The Albatross isn’t just an indoor golf spot. It’s a community built on the pursuit of excellence and the love of the game…a place where tradition and technology meet, and where every shot still matters.
Â
So when winter hits and the fairways disappear under snow, remember there’s a club that never closes. The Albatross…open all winter long, right here in our own backyard.

There’s something about Franklin Square in the fall that always pulls me in. The trees glow with color, the air feels alive, and that iconic water tower rises above it all as the sky turns shades of pink and gold. From high above with my drone, you can see how everything connects here...old brick, winding streets, and that unmistakable Syracuse character. This view never gets old. It’s my favorite place in the city, and every sunset reminds me why.

High above Syracuse University, looking west toward the setting sun, the city feels almost weightless. The orange glow spills over the Dome, the campus, and the neighborhoods beyond…a reminder of how much this place means to Syracuse.
It’s more than a university. It’s the heartbeat of the city. The energy, the pride, the stories…they all seem to rise from here. Every time I fly over campus, I can feel the connection between the students chasing dreams, the fans who fill the Dome, and the generations who’ve built this community together.
There’s something special about seeing it all from above…the way the light hits the hill, the skyline stretching into the horizon, and that unmistakable sense that this is where it all begins.

Syracuse after dark has a vibe all its own.
When the sun fades behind the hills, the city starts to glow. Streetlights flicker on, windows shimmer, and the quiet hum of downtown takes over.
Flying the drone at night feels like stepping into that rhythm. From above, every block tells a story…the movement, the colors, the calm between the noise. It’s the Syracuse we know, seen in a whole new way.
Syracuse, you’ve got something special up here.

🏀 Tonight, Syracuse basketball is back.
As the Orange tip off the new season inside the JMA Wireless Dome, I can’t help but think back to the time I got to fly my drone through that very building…soaring under the lights, around the rafters, and right over Jim Boeheim Court.
What an unforgettable experience seeing this iconic place from a whole new perspective.
Let’s go Orange 🍊

Sure, I like what they’ve done with the place. The renovated red house sitting on top of the old warehouse is a Syracuse legend and the space below has been turned into beautiful new apartments.
But there are days when I miss the old house and the stories that came along with it. Rumor has it an old woman once moved in and never left, so the developers built around her.
The new version looks great and I’m glad it’s been restored, but there’s something about that old red house that just feels missing to me.

Every time I send my drone up, I feel like I’m rediscovering my hometown all over again. The familiar streets, the quiet corners, the way the city stretches out toward the hills…Syracuse never stops surprising me from above.
This view, from the Woodlawn Reservoir in Strathmore where I grew up, brings it all full circle. It’s the same place I played as a kid, now seen from a whole new perspective…still beautiful, still home, just endless in its own way.

Ever wonder where the Addams Family home came from?
Look no further than right here in Syracuse.
The Hall of Languages, designed by architect Horatio Nelson White in the Second Empire style and built between 1871 and 1873, was the first building constructed on the Syracuse University campus. For a time, it housed the entire university.
Its gothic silhouette and eerie symmetry later served as the creative inspiration for the Addams Family mansion in the original TV show. A building that was meant for higher learning ended up shaping one of pop culture’s most iconic homes.
At night, under the glow of the campus lights, it still feels like something straight out of a movie.
The Hall of Languages. Where history meets the haunted.

Remembering Officer Wallie Howard Jr. đź’™
35 years ago today, Syracuse was shaken to its core.
Police Officer Wallie Howard Jr., just 31 years old, was working undercover in a drug operation when he was shot and killed in the line of duty. He became the first Syracuse Police officer killed while serving since 1929.
But Wallie was so much more than that single, tragic day.
He was born and raised right here in Syracuse. A Henninger High grad. A track star. A young man with dreams who chose to dedicate his life to protecting his city. For 9 years he served with integrity…first on patrol, then as an evidence technician, and finally as part of a federal drug task force. He was known for his courage, humility, and quiet strength.
That fall afternoon in 1990, while trying to keep dangerous drugs off our streets, Wallie made the ultimate sacrifice. He never made it home to his wife, his children, or his family.
His legacy, though, lives on. The Wallie Howard Medal is awarded to officers who carry the same bravery and honor he showed. Federal prosecutors in Syracuse still give out the Wallie Howard Jr. Award for excellence in law enforcement. And every officer who puts on the badge in this city walks in his footsteps.
Wallie Howard Jr. was more than a police officer. He was a son of Syracuse, a father, a husband, and a hero whose story will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace, Officer Howard. Syracuse remembers you. 🕊️

Hanover Square is waking up again.
The water’s almost ready to flow, the lights nearly set to glow, and a piece of downtown Syracuse history is finding its rhythm once more.
What was once tired and forgotten is now becoming a symbol of pride and progress. The kind of project that reminds you how much momentum this city has right now. Restaurants are buzzing, sidewalks are filling, and this fountain stands at the center of it all…proof that Syracuse is moving forward while honoring what’s always made it special.
Captured high above by drone, you can see it taking shape. The heart of the square beating again, surrounded by energy, color, and possibility.
