Salt Production in Syracuse, New York (“The Salt City”)
and the Hydrogeology of the Onondaga Creek Valley
The Salt Industry, Tully Farms, N
Brine from springs in and around the southern end of Onondaga Lake, from former brine wells dug
or drilled at the lakes’ edge, and from wells that tapped halite (common salt) beds near Tully, N.Y., 15
miles south of Syracuse, were used commercially from the late 1700’s through the early 1900’s for salt
production. The rapid development of this industry in tie 18th and 19th centuries led to the nicknaming
of Syracuse as “The Salt City.”
The brine originates from halite bed
