The area will need more, if it is going to be able to host events like the NCAA Tournament again in the future. These changes have made it to where the area is below the minimum, if I'm not mistaken.

There are only 6 New hotels proposed. Onondaga County could use about 40 New hotels so the run down hotels have enough competition to either close or renovate.
Is this in the area? Ok, I know where that is and it is in an area that is essentially separated from the rest of the hotels in the area. So, this is something that is not exclusive to the area.
Here is a street view: https://www.google.com/maps/@43.1159...5410&entry=ttu So, it is basically the only hotel in an industrial business area. Meaning, I'm not sure what he was expecting and it isn't indicative of most hotels in the area.
Anyway, there are plenty of newer hotels that have been built, but if they are converting some for housing, more will have to be built.

If you check out the some of the community information programs, segments and articles, there is interest in terms of building more hotels, but the current interest rates are in the way for some developers. So, this may be a matter not of if, but when more hotels are built.
"Onondaga County has unveiled a couple of plans to get more hotel rooms in Syracuse. The first idea is to find someone to build a 200-room convention center hotel on a county-owned parking lot one block away from the Oncenter. The second is to develop a fund to encourage the building of other hotels. County Executive Ryan McMahon says with Micron and other businesses moving in, the economic future is bright."
I just hope it isn't another gray, brown, black or red brick building in downtown Syracuse.
I think it is time for Syracuse to start looking more modern with a blue glass skyscraper.
In my opinion blue glass skyscrapers make a cloudy city look less depressing. Just look at Toronto.

Most hotels aren’t glass skyscrapers though. So, that isn’t necessarily realistic.
Again, Syracuse just needs to be itself, but do so reasonably and purposefully. Meaning, that the economic growth gets to those that need it and needed it for a while.
Also, hotels will likely be in other hotel concentrations across the county/area like 7th North Street, Carrier Circle, near airport/South Bay Road, etc. versus the location of the hotel in that guys video, which is in the town of Geddes in a odd location near I-690. You may also get new concentrations in say the Inner Harbor or more in the Route 31 and Erie Bouelvard East corridors. Maybe around the State Fair in whatever available land as well.
