The new home to Queen City’s Showboat Majestic, Front Street has seen its share of recent redevelopment plans, bringing more attention to the charming business district with new family-owned shops and restaurants. New Richmond has post-COVID plans to showcase local talent on the Showboat Majestic, going hand-in-hand with the newly passed DORA (designated outdoor refreshment area) of Front Street.

Little ones will enjoy the unique museums found in New Richmond, such as the World’s Only Cardboard Boat Museum, Ulysses S. Grant's Birthplace and the Ross-Gowdy House. New Richmond is home to the annual Cardboard Boat Regatta during the River Days Festival. After a visit to the museum, you might find yourself preparing to compete in the summer Regatta with family and friends.

The river town is famous for its beautiful waterfront views of the Ohio River.
