Lennon's Then
In 1945, Harold T. Lennon Sr. opened Lennon's Jewelers at 4 Lafayette Street in Utica, on a corner so busy it was simply known as "The Busy Corner." He was one of the first jewelers in the city to offer air conditioning and installed the first full glass door in Utica, proudly advertising as "The Store with the Glass Door." Meanwhile, Wilcox Jewelers had been serving the Utica area since 1802 under the name "The Sign of the Golden Watch," eventually settling at 238 Genesee Street and becoming a beloved destination for both fine jewelry and giftware. In 1992, these two storied names merged to become Lennon's W.B. Wilcox Jewelers, uniting over a century of combined history under one roof.
