Hotel
Candee - In 1864 Charles E. Candee opened the eastern half of
the present Hotel Candee, formerly known as the Brintnall Hotel.
Two years later he sold to Wagner & Sweatland. Mr. Sweatland
soon after sold his interest to Horace B. Castle, and Mr. Wagner sold
to Jerome Vroman, who in turn sold to Mr. Belden, and he to Mr.
Hiscock. The latter disposed of his interest to James H. Burke,
and 1869 Mr. Candee repurchased the house and has been its proprietor
ever since. In 1887 he leased the upper part of the old Talbot
House, extending to the corner of Fayette and Warren streets, thus
giving him 150 rooms. Mr. Candee is the oldest continuous
hotel-keeper in Syracuse. In 1882 he was elected Alderman of the
Sixth ward, and has by successive re-elections held that office ever
since.
