Welcome... to Solvay New York!

The Village of Solvay was established in the year1894. It has an estimated population of 7,100 people, and an approximate size of 1.6 square miles. It is located east of Camillus, south of Onondaga Lake, and west of Syracuse. The main routes of travel are State Routes 5, 690, and Milton Ave., which is the main shopping street in Solvay. The development of Solvay took the whole industrial strip across the Town of Geddes, and the residential area south of Geddes. After the turn of the century, Solvay was an exciting place to live, and grew very fast. This was due to the people involved in building Solvay Process Company. the Solvay Bank, built in 1917, helped to develop the west end. Through the years, Milton Ave has been modernized many times, and you can still find all the warmth and personal service that make Solvay what it is today.
