Zeke Leonard, musician
Here is an idea whose time has come.
We look forward to more music/concerts and live shows at Forman Park along the Connective Corridor. Today we witnessed professor Zeke Leonard climb atop a car to perform “This Land is Your Land,” complete with a recycled ukulele and a NY-made-kazoo.
Leonard’s lunchtime performance was part of the Corridor’s Green Streets and Local Eats festival.
Let’s find a way to keep the music going at Forman Park.

Detective Wallie Howard, Jr. was the last member of the Syracuse Police Department to be killed in the line of duty (1990).
Genesis & Exodus
Thanks to the many random drop-ins, friends, faithful clients, and family who visited our Midtown office over the years. We literally watched the neighborhood change around us.
The space was a great place to initiate this venture, and will remain an important part of our history.
Syracuse shows off another facet of readiness this evening as the 168 Centro Bus (East Fayette/Erie-Shoppingtown) passes Forman Avenue along the Connective Corridor--four days before the big game.
Bustle & Flow: University Avenue
Beyond the breaking news and speculation about a possible stadium in the Midtown area (near the former Kennedy Square complex) is the fact that the Connective Corridor already provides the infrastructure to effectively move fans toward the neighborhood. The route, shown here at University Avenue, connects the University Hill with Downtown for city residents. And of course, the potential site is already close to the major highways (Route 690, Route I81).
The nearly century-old sycamore tree stands guard near southern entrance to the Syracuse Center of Excellence (CoE) property.
Construction continues on Washington Street near the CoE building (interrupting our normal Connective Corridor route). We took a recent tour of the facilities and were briefed on the numerous green projects and advanced energy systems. We also found out that Syracuse is taking sustainability + conservation to new heights, because although new foliage was added on Washington Street, they didn’t displace this mature sycamore (located near what will become the CoE parking lot).
