Pioneer Homes residents get early chance to avoid noisy I-81 construction. How many will take it?

Syracuse, NY– Marquita Hetherington grew up along East Adams Street, on the edge of downtown. She lived with her mother in Weiser Court, an area of Pioneer Homes three blocks from Interstate 81. Her mother’s cousin lived next door.

Generations later, Hetherington and that cousin’s granddaughter are living the same way: They have next-door apartments a couple of streets over inside the public housing neighborhood.
