Onondaga Town Historian Mary Nowyj joined us for a coffee night to talk to about the rich history of Seneca Turnpike and the early years of the city of Syracuse. Neighbors around the city enjoyed the rich conversation about the history of our town including the Independence War, Split Rock accident during the World War. We even learned that Seneca Turnpike was part of the Underground Railroad System. The evening has ended by enjoying the home-made dishes prepared by the members of the CNY RISE Center Women Club.
