Utica, New York



Utica’s first right and proper City Hall was constructed in 1852 of yellow bricks in the Italian Renaissance style on plans drawn by Richard Upjohn. Dominated by a tall, square campanile the building stood on the southeast corner of Genesee and Elizabeth streets for 115 years before the elegant City Hall was torn down over the objections of hardly anybody. This is its replacement.
