Connective Corridor
The Connective Corridor is emerging as a signature strip of cutting-edge cultural development connecting the University Hill with downtown Syracuse. It is home to three major universities and more than 25 arts and cultural venues, all within close distance.
In the coming months and years these venues will be creatively linked together and showcased with new urban landscapes, bike paths, imaginative lighting, public and interactive art, signage and way-finding systems.
Centro provides free public transportation on the Connective Corridor between Syracuse University and important arts and cultural venues in Downtown Syracuse on a regular schedule.
