Armory Square’s Past and Present Featured

Arcadia Publishing
More Info on This Book: Armory Square
In a new book by Arcadia Publishing, local authors Robert J. Podfigurny and George W. Curry use both vintage and contemporary photographs to document the dynamic transition of Armory Square from past years to today.
The book serves as not only documentation of this history, but also as a tribute to the efforts of key individuals whose vision and hard work brought back this neighborhood from a state of economic despair.
The authors hope the book will “help readers gain an appreciation for the rich, fascinating history of the Armory Square district.”
Highlights of Armory Square:
• Features a selection of vintage photographs from the Onondaga Historical Association
• Showcases the railroad passenger stations that were once in Armory Square but are no longer standing
• Spotlights the well-known, large companies of Gaylord Brothers and Crouse-Hinds Electric Co. that once were located in Armory Square
A portion of the profits from the sale of the book is being donated to the non-profit organization, Armory Square Association, to help further promote this historic neighborhood and its member organizations.
Available at area bookstores, independent retailers, and online retailers, or through Arcadia Publishing at (888)-313-2665 or www.arcadiapublishing.com.
