Marshall Street is located on University Hill in Syracuse, New York adjacent to Syracuse University, whose students gave it the name M-Street. Many shops, restaurants, and bars line this street and its terminus South Crouse Avenue, some of which are open until four in the morning during the academic year. The Marshall Square Mall is also located adjacent to Marshall Street. The area is promoted by the Crouse-Marshall Business Association. Marshall Street was renovated in 2000, receiving a new surface and underground utility lines. South Crouse Avenue followed in 2004.
