Archbold Gymnasium

Forestry Drive

Syracuse, NY 13244

Opened: December 17, 1908

Closed: December 31, 1961

Archbold Gymnasium is a gymnasium located on the campus of Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York. It was built in 1908 with $400,000 donated by John Dustin Archbold, a major benefactor of the university, who also funded the building of Archbold Stadium, just to the west of the gymnasium (now the site of the JMA Wireless Dome). It was the largest college gymnasium when built. In 1909, the university was the first in the nation to install an indoor rowing tank, allowing the crew team to practice in the basement of Archbold Gymnasium during winter.

It served as the home to the men's basketball team until the building of the Manley Field House in 1962, with the exception of the time from January, 1947 to 1949. This was due to a large fire which gutted most of the building. The building was rebuilt from 1948 to 1949, and a southern addition was made in 1952, as well as a neighboring gymnasium (Flanagan Gymnasium), which was built in 1989 and was only accessible via a glass skyway from Archbold Gymnasium.
