Tucked along the Ohio River in southern Indiana, New Albany is a city whose character is shaped by its riverfront and close ties to Louisville, Kentucky, on the opposite bank. The river supported a major 19th-century boatbuilding industry, and that prosperous period is still evident in the Mansion Row Historic District, where substantial residences recall the city’s commercial ambitions. Downtown combines restaurants, independent businesses and civic institutions within a compact historic setting. The Carnegie Center for Art and History occupies New Albany’s former Carnegie Library and presents exhibitions connected with regional art and history.
