GE departed Syracuse in 1993 when they sold what was left of Aerospace to Martin Marietta and what is now Lockheed Martin.

GE had 20,000 people working in Syracuse when I went to work for them. There was less than 1500 when I left in 1995.

I went to Rochester and Kodak. The same thing happened to Kodak. The taxes and environmental regs drove them into bankruptcy.

Another department of GE's HMED (Heavy Military Equipment Division) got spun off and became Sensis, which a few years ago was purchased by Sweden's Saab Group. It is now called "Saab Sensis," and is located very close to the building in question.
