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!

Pensacola, Florida is a historic city with a rich past dating back to the early 16th century when it was first settled by Spanish explorers. The city quickly became an important trading post and military outpost due to its strategic location on the Pensacola Bay, which allowed for easy access to the Gulf of Mexico. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Pensacola was controlled by various colonial powers including the British and the Spanish, before finally becoming a part of the United States in 1821. The city played a significant role in the Civil War, serving as a key Confederate port and naval base. Throughout the 20th century, Pensacola experienced rapid growth and development, becoming a popular tourist destination known for its beautiful beaches, historic architecture, and vibrant culture. Today, Pensacola continues to thrive as a major hub for tourism, military, and industry, while still preserving its rich history and heritage.
