Newest Syracuse lakefront area apartments open in former industrial building

A construction company has completed a dramatic transformation of a rundown industrial building in Syracuse’s lakefront area into a mixed-use building with apartments and office space.

Montreal Construction Inc. added a second floor to the former American Bag & Metal Co. building at 400 Spencer St. and gave the structure an entirely new look. It has named the building simply 400 Spencer Street.
