Downtown Utica combines the best elements of a vibrant business district and a tranquil residential environment. This part of town is packed with historic homes and buildings, many dating back well over a century; in addition to the countless vintage storefronts, many of these beautifully-preserved buildings have been converted into apartments and condos.
Genesee Street serves as the backbone of the community, lined with an eclectic array of cafes, bars, specialty shops, and arts venues. Start your day with a pastry from Bite Bakery, enjoy a low-key lunch at Court Vue, or unwind with a cocktail after hours at Griffin’s Pub. The Stanley Theatre has been a hotspot for live performances since the 1920s, and regularly hosts concerts and plays in its ornate auditorium.
