When you enter New Eagle from the nearby village of Monongahela, you’re greeted by the sight of a glass and door business and a banquet restaurant advertising home cooked meals. As you keep going, past the tattoo parlors and the two-story buildings with their aging brick, past the multifamily houses and the Beach Club Marina, past a pizzeria and the post office, you’ll finally reach an intersection where you can see that the residential parts of this neighborhood are placed on the slope of a hill overlooking this commercial center.

New Eagle is where people live in old houses made of brick, where they keep their boats in the Monongahela River and fish for trout. It’s a quiet community, but it’s also right next to the borough of Monongahela, and New Eagle residents tend to scoot over to the neighboring village for festivals and other big events. But at the end of the day, when they return to their homes on the hill, it’s nothing but silence in this riverfront neighborhood.

“It’s a dot on a map. There’s not a whole lot that goes down there,” William Brahler IV of Century 21 Frontier Realty. “Most people from New Eagle filter to Monongahela when things are going on.”
Most of the houses in New Eagle were built throughout the 20th century. There are 3,200-square-foot colonials from the late 1990s for $393,000, 1,500-square-foot brick houses for $316,000, split-level homes from the 1970s for $155,000, 1950s brick houses for $162,000 and 1,800-square-foot houses with floor-to-ceiling windows for $300,000.

On the Monongahela River, which is colloquially known as the “Mon,” there’s a small green space called Hall Memorial Park. Here you will find a covered picnic area, a playground and a wooden observatory area for looking out at the river. Neighbors keep their boats at the end of the long wooden dock at Beach Club Marina and watch the water vessels come in and out at Rosie’s Anchor Bar & Grille. Rosie’s serves sandwiches like baked Italian hoagies and cocktails like the Marlin Mai Tai and the Beach Club Margarita. Further up the hill, past New Eagle’s residential neighborhoods, there is the New Eagle Castle, a stone structure that was planned to be a summer retreat for a New York City couple. Today, it’s a great place to see the cherry blossoms, take prom pictures and even get married.

Kids in New Eagle attend school through the Ringgold School District, which serves a total of seven municipalities. Ringgold has four schools, including Ringgold Elementary School South, Ringgold Elementary School North, Ringgold Middle School and Ringgold High School. The school district uses the framework of Universal Design for Learning, a research-based teaching philosophy where instruction is designed to meet the various needs of different learners.

New Eagle is located along Pennsylvania Route 88, which runs along the south side of the Mon and goes north until it merges with Route 51 and heads up to Pittsburgh. The Steel City is about 25 miles away to the north. This is a gritty little village where the houses look down upon the main commercial area and one of Pittsburgh’s three rivers. Come hide away in a home on the hill.
