New York Central Railroad Passenger Station, in Syracuse, New York, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 2009.[2]

The passenger station, built in 1936, is of Art Deco design. In 1962, New York Central Railroad moved to a smaller station in East Syracuse, New York. The interior of the terminal was used as a Midtown Motors car dealership in the late 1950s to early 1960s. Greyhound used it a bus terminal from 1964 until a fire in 1996.[1]

The passenger building was renovated from 2001 to 2003 by Time Warner Cable both to serve as their main office for their central New York operations, and as the Syracuse bureau/studios for Time Warner Cable News Central New York, a role it continues to currently serve.[1][3]
