The Babcock-Shattuck House (also known as the Jewish War Veterans Post) is a prominent house at the corner of East Genesee and Westcott Streets in Syracuse, New York.
Description and history
The Queen Anne-style house was built in the mid-1890s to be the home of Dr. Archer D. Babcock, a founding member of the Crouse-Irving Hospital. It was Babcock's home until 1913.[2]
Beginning during World War II, it was a post of the Jewish War Veterans of the United States of America. They converted the second floor into a large meeting room. During the tenure of this organization, the house played an important role in the Jewish community of Syracuse.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 12, 2004.[1]
