New Brighton has been around for over a century
Bordering the waters of the Beaver River, New Brighton is a Pittsburgh borough located 25 miles northwest of the city and boasts a rich history, having been incorporated in 1838. “People could be drawn here because Beaver County has lower taxes,” says Gina Fonzi, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty, who has served the Pittsburgh area for over 10 years. “It's not too far from the city, and the airport is on the way into town, which is important to people, too.”

New Brighton is a historic stop along state Route 65
With state Route 65 cutting right through the middle of the Borough, thousands of people drive through New Brighton each day, but what they might not know is that the small town in Beaver County has a ton of history. It is believed to be the first place metal railroad cars were manufactured, and it was an important place along the Underground Railroad during the mid-to-late 1800s. Due to its proximity to the Ohio River, a natural way for enslaved people to reach Canada from the south, New Brighton became a hub along the Underground Railroad. It was one of the few towns with six designated safe houses along the route. Today, the connection to the Underground Railroad is celebrated with a walking tour that navigates to the multiple historic safehouses.
