In 1871, Gleason became the president of the Third National Bank of Syracuse at the corner of Washington and Salina streets and had capital invested in the project to the tune of $300,000.

Beech St. Syracuse, NY 13210 Architect: Unknown Style: Not listed Period: 1800-1824 Ownership: Private Historic Significance: Association with Oliver Teall (1788-1857), considered one of Syracuse's founding fathers. Teall is linked with relative Rueben Bangs (1788-1872) throughout most of his life. The two owned portions of the same military lots in Syracuse, and in 1819 started a business producing lime used in making cement for the face works, locks, and arches of the Erie Canal. The limestone was mined on Dry Hill (sometimes by Aaron C. Hoar) and was burned in kilns to convert it to a powder, then shoveled from the bottom of the kilns, and transferred to a warehouse where it was stored. The kilns were often located on the extensions near the locks. Teall and Bangs had a contract for the construction of a portion of the Canal about a mile west of the Limestone Creek aqueduct. In 1828, they were joined by Seymour Pratt. Pratt was replaced by Ed Gaynor at which point the company was named Bangs and Gaynor Lime and Plaster Works. By 1830, the men had constructed a dry-dock and boat yard on the west side of the feeder extension to allow boats to dock for repairs. Teall later became the Canal's superintendent. At one point he was awarded a 35-year monopolistic franchise to supply water to Syracuse, but he failed to take advantage of this opportunity. When Teall died in 1857, he left behind some land in California, the ownership of which was later disputed and that became the center of a famous U.S. Supreme Court decision.
