NewsChannel 9 (WSYR-TV) is situated in East Syracuse, New York, just a short distance from Downtown Syracuse and Syracuse University.
For those unfamiliar with the Central New York area, our area offers four distinct seasons, each filled with its unique activities like apple picking, skiing, boating, festivals, and rooting for the Syracuse Orange year-round.
Syracuse, also known as the 'Salt City', strikes an ideal balance between the amenities of a larger city, including events, restaurants, and attractions, and the welcoming atmosphere of a smaller town.
Our city is rapidly growing, as evident from the developing Inner Harbor area, the newly renovated JMA Wireless Dome, and the significant investments in our infrastructure.
Additionally, our city offers a diverse range of culinary options to suit any taste.
At NewsChannel 9, we take pride in our local identity and deliver local news coverage through our enthusiastic news team.
Our programming includes award-winning newscasts as well as a local lifestyle program, Bridge Street, which airs every weekday morning.
Furthermore, our weekly program, NewsMakers, provides an in-depth analysis of local news stories. We understand the importance of recognizing the efforts of those who make a positive impact in our community.
