The last time I shared a photo of the historic Syracuse Savings Bank at Clinton Square it was during blue hour. This building is just as impressive during the golden hour.

As much as I have shown you Clinton Square in Syracuse, New York over the last year, I thought I would show you some of its history. Back in the late 1800′s, the Erie Canal went directly through Clinton Square. Below is a photo from that time period used as an information plaque with what Clinton Square looks like today.
