After 5 p.m. Wednesday, any tenant that needs to access their store will be required to enter and leave through the “carousel entrance” (the Onondaga Lake side entrance immediately under the carousel ride).
Pyramid says the building will be accessible 24 hours each day and will have a member of the security team at that entrance to sign people in and out of Destiny USA.
Signage with these instructions will also be posted at each of the entrances.
Deliveries for any tenants that continue to provide “take-out” food service will need to be coordinated through Schoeneck, and all other deliveries to Destiny USA will be suspended.

Destiny USA security personnel will continue to staff and patrol the complex throughout the closure, per the message.
