New York State Route 690 (NY 690) is a freeway in Central New York in the United States. NY 690's southern terminus is at an interchange with the New York State Thruway (Interstate 90 or I-90) and I-690 in Van Buren. The northern terminus is at an intersection with NY 48 and NY 631 in Lysander. NY 690 serves the northwest suburbs of Syracuse and Onondaga County. It also provides a link to routes that run into the populated areas of Oswego County, because its northern terminus is just a few miles shy of the county line.
NY 690 is an extension of I-690 in the northwest suburbs of Syracuse. NY 690 is a divided, four-lane highway for its entire run, and is signed north–south even though I-690 is signed east–west. NY 690 is one of two state routes that serve as an extension of an Interstate Highway in the Syracuse area, the other being NY 481. NY 690 was designated on July 1, 1974.
