West Brothers Knitting Company is a historic knitting mill located in the Westside neighborhood of Syracuse, Onondaga County, New York. It was built in 1906-1907, and is a three-story, 20 bay by 6 bay, red brick mill building with a raised basement. It is of standard mill construction. The front facade features a three-bay, four-story elevator tower. The West Knitting Corporation moved to Wadesboro, North Carolina in 1928. The mill later housed a corrugated paper container manufacturer, the Gray Brothers Boot & Shoe Manufacturing Company, and most recently a manufacturer of a wide variety of air filters.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
