Click here or image for larger version Utica, city, seat (1798) of Oneida county, central New York, U.S., on the Mohawk River and New York State Canal System, 45 miles (72 km) east of Syracuse. The first settlers were Dutch and Palatinate Germans, and in 1758 the British built Old Fort Schuyler, near the site of an ancient Oneida Indian council stone. Destroyed by the Indian-Tory raid in 1776, the early village was rebuilt and connected by stagecoach to Albany (1793) and by river to Schenectady. Incorporated as the village of Utica (its name was drawn from a hat) in 1798, it grew as a textile-industrial centre following the completion of the Erie Canal in 1825. In 1879 F.W. Woolworth opened his first store in Utica, selling only merchandise costing five cents or less (the store failed the same year). Diversified manufacturing developed after World War II and now includes medical and surgical equipment, wood furniture, jewelry boxes and desk accessories, power transmissions (aerospace), and textile reinforcements for tires.
