Syracuse, N.Y. — A hotel that has stood in Syracuse’s Armory Square for 95 years has a new owner and will soon have a new name and look.

Syracuse Hospitality Developers, an offshoot of Corning-based Visions Hotels, bought the independent Jefferson Clinton in December 2019 for $6.1 million, according to Onondaga County property tax records. The seller was Jefferson-Clinton Hotel LLC, an ownership group that included Syracuse developer Joe Hucko.
