Syracuse Historic Building Demolished....Go Dig

[UnEarthed72]

Yep, Tipp Hill here. I lived there from 83-00. Went to Fowler There are a few Erie Canal sites by Green Lakes that would probably be promising. The worn paths on the side are clearly visible still. Also, if you look right, you can tell some of the houses that were built next to the canal are from the 1800's and probably good sites to look.

Nice pic of the reverse traffic light,i went to solvay high school(lived in lyncourt)but hung around everywhere...when i was in grade school i went to seymore and lived on west street(i can remember we would go up to Fowler for swimming lol).
I always wondered about the erie canal ways too...wonder if detecting is allowed--havnt tried it yet but id like too..
If your interested in getting together this spring for some detecting get a hold of me via PM,hunted with 2 other Tnet members last year and had a great time

Yeap, same here. I hunted with Shawn and had a good time. This spring I am planning on digging lots of holes, and filling them back in of course

I live in AR right now, but will visit this year and bring my detector. I can say that I think most of the canal ways are abandoned. The canal is broken up in so many pieces that it isnt kept up (tall grass...). Onondaga Lake Park might be a good spot, part of the canal is there. I went fishing there once.

Sounds god to me. I will scout out a few spots on google map and see where some of the good canal sites may be. We can meet up at Carousel or something.

Back in the early 70's, Butternut St. and the surrounding areas were a pretty nice neighborhood...We used to hang at three different bars there, Bucky's, The Duck Inn and the Shack...they are probably all gone now...
The 13 Curves legend goes back to the late 1800's...a young lady recieved word that her beau had been injured and was rushing down the curves in a buggy and lost control about the seventh curve and died...they never recovered her body and that is why she still haunts the curves...
My buddies and I took our girlfriends up there to check out the story, saw lights and a few other things but that might be because we had inhaled some of Mother Nature's finer tobaccos that evening...
