IKEA has confirmed plans to open a nearly 70,000-square-foot store at Destiny USA in Syracuse, the largest shopping mall in New York. The announcement, made on Monday by IKEA U.S., marks the first IKEA store location in upstate New York.

IKEA will open its first Upstate New York location at Destiny USA in Syracuse, NY in the fall of 2025, offering a range of home furnishings, food, and a pick-up location for online orders.

You can almost smell the Swedish meatballs and lingonberry jam already. That's right, IKEA is coming to upstate New York. For Binghamton and Ithaca residents, the closest IKEA would be about a three-hour drive away. But IKEA U.S. announced plans for its third New York location at Destiny USA in Syracuse on the company's website on July 7.
