Produced in the 1980s to promote the City of Utica, do you remember this classic TV commercial?

The video features a look at the long-gone Saranac Trolley and shots of the Utica Zoo, Ray Charles at the Stanley Theater and more.

You are Utica

And Utica is You

Isn't Utica really right for you?

Without you living here it wouldn't be the same

The air is fresh and the sky is blue, isn't Utica really right for you!
