City Council beginning process to repurpose 7 acres on Main Street

The City of Newcastle has taken another step toward opening up Main Street land for retail development. A 2023 purchase of the land south of Fox Lane and east of Main Street was made in anticipation of developing it and offering it for sale to retailers.

If successful, it will provide a new area for businesses, and in so doing will aid the city in providing items and services needed for continued growth.
