Combine the power of art, technology, and innovation with neighborhood values and culture to revitalize Syracuse’s Near Westside.
The revitalization will be fueled by interdisciplinary scholarship, international connections, and the seed capital and commitment of Syracuse University. It will be sustained by the residents, businesses, foundations, and the local government of Syracuse.
It will infuse arts and innovation, renovate and build new homes, and will create jobs, home ownership opportunities, and beautiful public spaces for the people who live in the neighborhood.

“Universities share the responsibility to address the pressing issues of our times:
• Decaying civil infrastructure• Environmental degradation• Failing schools• Beleaguered economies• Distressed neighborhoods• Social divisions
…..doing so is good for the scholarly life of faculty, the education of students, and the community.”
Quality scholarly research and publicly engaged workare not in opposition.

Diversity and excellence are not in opposition.
“The more we recruit diverse students andfaculty, the more they are attracted by theopportunities to get engaged and the betterwe become as a university.”
