Fort Schuyler Club

The Fort Schuyler Club is a historic private club in downtown Utica, established in 1883. Its name nods to Fort Schuyler, the early name of the settlement that grew into Utica. Clubs of this kind have long served as gathering places for a city’s business and social life.

As a private club, it is set up for members and their guests, and it is tied to food, beverage and banquet service in the way many traditional clubs are. Established in the 1880s, it is one of the older institutions in downtown Utica.
