Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2024. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Evansville, Indiana, located on the banks of the Ohio River, has a rich history dating back to the early 19th century.

Evansville quickly grew into a bustling river port, serving as a hub for shipping and trade in the Midwest. During the Civil War, Evansville played a crucial role in supplying the Union Army with provisions and munitions. The city also became known for its thriving manufacturing industry, particularly in the production of furniture, automobiles, and appliances.
