Description

Cover. "In 1950, 92.8 percent of Syracuse's black community was housed in three census tracts 32,33 and 42. The community was small yet concentrated in what was known as the 15th Ward. That area, now home to Upstate University Hospital, various parking garages, highways, and an expanding Syracuse University, was once a vibrant black community." Page 4. Description of the 15th Ward in Syracuse in history.
