Its claim to fame (at least to me who was about 13 at the time!) -- the first McDonalds in the Utica/Rome area was in Yorkville. If you need me to find out more, Mary, e-mail me back and I can ask my mother who knows *everything* about *everything* in that neck of the woods! Marsha Strong; Gainesville, FL
