Book Description
Utica is known for its diverse cultures and ethnic neighborhoods strewn out across the city. In the 50s, 60s, and 70s many will say was the true booming era for this small upstate city. Manufacturing jobs and small family-owned businesses were a common sight throughout the city. West Utica was probably the most diverse part of the city with its manufacturing and family-owned businesses on almost every corner. Sadly today's Utica is nothing like the Utica of yesterday. Buildings stand vacant and if you drive down the streets you see empty storefronts and abandoned factories. You see empty lots that were once family homes. In the pages of this book, we will take you back to the west Utica of our childhoods. We'll spend the day at the Highland Theater or take a trip down Columbia Street for a drink or two with our friends. We'll reminisce about the people and places that made west Utica a great memory. And we will even share some amazing family secrets on how to make some of the delicious foods that we all grew up on. So now you can sit back and eat some good old west Utica food and reminisce on some good old west Utica memories. Enjoy the journey through west Utica the way we remember it from yesterday.

Book Description
Known as "Old Main," the New York State Lunatic Asylum at Utica opened in 1843 as the first institution of its kind to treat madness as a medical illness, not a curse. A series of groundbreaking administrators sought to save mentally ill New Yorkers from lives of confinement in sordid conditions and create a safe haven. A sense of normalcy was established for patients through Old Main's Asylum Band, the Opal monthly publication and other arts programs. The infamous Utica Crib was invented at the asylum, and visitors from around the world sought to tour the facility and its utopian structure. Though closed in 1978, Old Main was placed in the National Register of Historic Places, and its iconic columns still mesmerize the public today. Author Dennis Webster charts the history of the New York State Lunatic Asylum at Utica.
