SYRACUSE — The Downtown Committee of Syracuse Inc. held its 2019 Downtown Living Tour on May 18, offering a chance to see lofts, townhouse units, apartments, and a business. 

The 13th annual event attracted 2,150 tourists, the Downtown Committee said.

The self-guided walking tour featured seven tour stops. The tour stops included GrangeX at 215 E. Water St.; Piper Phillips Residences at 229-237 W. Fayette St.; the Whitney Lofts at 321-323 S. Salina St.; Syracuse Trust at 325 S. Salina St.; the Lofts at Whitlock at 480 S. Salina St.; TCG Player at 440 S. Warren St.; and the Wood Building at 205 E. Jefferson St. 

All tour-goers started at the City Hall Commons Atrium to pick up their official Living Tour wristbands, which grant access to all of the tour stops, along with an official tour map, a program, and “swag bags,” the Downtown Committee said.

From City Hall Commons, those attending could move at their own pace to visit occupied and available units, including townhouses, lofts, and affordable units.

The organization got help from 82 volunteers to assist with the event, according to the Downtown Committee’s Twitter page.
