NEWS: Ronald McDonald House Decision Reached

By Chris McGrath

Efforts to place the Ronald McDonald House of Central New York under historic designation came up just one vote short Monday.  The Post Standard reports the Common Council voted 6-3 to keep the 19th-century building as is.  Seven “yes” votes were needed to keep the house at 1100 E. Genesee St.  Now that preservationists have lost their battle, the Ronald McDonald House looks to create a new building for headquarters and family housing.
