SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — Mayor Ben Walsh and the non-profit Home Headquarters, Inc. are calling this a new approach to affordable home construction.
While rehabbing a home is possible, it can be costly and with issues like lead paint and asbestos still so common in older Syracuse homes, what they did here was tear down two previously abandoned properties that were owned by the land bank and combined the lots to make way for this.
