Syracuse Public Safety Building

Located in Syracuse, NY, the Lipe-Rollway Bearing Company complex was originally built in 1920 and produced military equipment for the U.S. Army and Navy during World War II. It consists of a six-story main building, an attached “barn” structure and a one-story addition totaling 100,960 square feet, with 138 on-site parking spaces, about one mile from the central business district.

This adaptive reuse project will rehabilitate the complex into a fully leased municipal facility for the City of Syracuse. It will house the central offices and dispatch operations for the Syracuse Fire Department and the Syracuse Police Department while retaining the building’s early-20th-century industrial character.
