Catch a glimpse of the city that exists now only in misty memory. This exhibit highlights scenes of Utica captured by artist Paul Parker between 1952 and 1968, just before urban renewal transformed the city’s skyline forever. These iconic images are mostly of an Utica that no longer exists; they are a nostalgic homecoming for long-time residents and a history lesson for visitors and newcomers. On view Monday - Friday, June 25 through August 20, 2026, at Oneida County History Center, 1608 Genesee Street, Utica, NY 13502.
