The Moyer factory complex, a site on the National Register of Historic Places, has undergone extensive rehabilitation.
The factory was originally constructed in phases from 1882 to 1909 and served various manufacturing and corporate functions.
Hochul said: “The adaptive reuse of the Moyer Carriage and Car Factory transforms an important relic of this region’s past into new, modern housing in the heart of Syracuse’s North Side that will accommodate a growing workforce for years to come.”
All apartments within the development are considered affordable for households earning up to 60% of the area median income (AMI).

Redev CNY partner and co-founder Ryan Benz said: “Our goal in redeveloping the Moyer Carriage Lofts was to create affordable, high-quality housing, while instilling new life to this building and the Northside Syracuse community.
“As we work towards a future that allows all to live in safe, affordable homes, the role of our partners, consultants, and HCR in particular cannot be understated.”
The Brownfield Cleanup Program added another $6.4m in state tax credits, and the city of Syracuse contributed $500,000 in HOME funds to the project.
