The new Stewart's Shop is now open in Utica! And regular unleaded gas is just $2.71 per gallon today. It marks their first shop in the city. Obviously there are incredible specials today (Friday, December 19th) for the grand opening, which you can read about on their website.

It's a big store with easy parking lot and gas pump access, and lots of food, beverage and grocery options. They have done a great job with the property, cleaning up a long vacant corner. As someone who drives by there regularly, I will definitely be stopping again!

This has been a part of the recent discussion of where they would open - West Utica, East Utica or both? And this brings us to the age old debate of the different sections of the city. While this is being referred to as a West Utica location, it is also a huge benefit to the entire downtown Utica area. Previously the closest options were either over the bridge into North Utica, or up Genny to South Utica. We already know Stewart's Shops will be opening a store in East Utica. If they were to open in other sections of the city, what locations would you like to see?
