context_page_description: New York State Route 598 is a north–south state highway located within Onondaga County, New York, in the United States. It extends for 2.31 miles from an intersection with NY 5 in the city of Syracuse to a junction with NY 298 in the adjacent town of Salina. The route intersects Interstate 690 near its southern terminus and passes through Syracuse's Eastwood neighborhood near its midpoint, where it meets NY 290.
  NY 598 was assigned c. 2004. The northernmost portion of the route replaced NY 930M, a short unsigned reference route that extended from NY 298 in Salina southeast to the Syracuse city line at North Midler Avenue. NY 930M itself was a remnant of New York State Route 433, a highway assigned in the early 1950s and removed in the mid-1960s that, upon removal, followed the same alignment as modern NY 598.
context_section_description: NY 598 begins at an intersection with NY 5 (Erie Boulevard) east of downtown Syracuse. The route heads north as the four-lane South Midler Avenue, crossing a CSX Transportation-owned railroad spur known as the Peat Street Runner at-grade ahead of an interchange with I-690 (exit 15) at the southern edge of the Eastwood neighborhood. North of I-690, the route narrows to two lanes as it travels through the densely populated residential neighborhood.
  The homes cease temporarily around NY 598's intersection with NY 290 (James Street), a prominent retail corridor in eastern Syracuse. Upon crossing NY 290, NY 598 becomes North Midler Avenue as it becomes surrounded by houses once more. At the Syracuse city line three blocks to the north, North Midler Avenue splits off to the northeast while NY 598 becomes New Court Avenue. The switch in both the town of DeWitt and name also brings about a switch in surroundings as the route heads northwest into a heavily industrial area built up along CSX's Mohawk Subdivision rail line. NY 598 ends shortly afterward at an intersection with NY 298 just inside the Salina town line. The portion of NY 598 in DeWitt and Salina is maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT); the remainder of the route is maintained by the city of Syracuse.
