Jeffersonville

Jeffersonville is a river city in Clark County, Indiana, that stretches along the Ohio River for several miles and connects to Louisville through multiple bridges. The city includes a working port, residential neighborhoods with varying architectural styles, and commercial districts that extend from the waterfront to the rolling hills of the hinterland.

Fort Finney was established in 1786 as a military outpost and marked the beginning of permanent settlement in the area. The city took its name from President Thomas Jefferson and grew as a trading hub due to its position on the river that linked regional commerce.

The Abbey Road on the River festival brings Beatles fans together each year in a celebration that fills riverside venues with live tribute performances. Local businesses and restaurants participate actively during the multi-day event, creating a welcoming environment for visitors who gather to share their appreciation of the music.

Bridge connections to Louisville allow quick crossings of the Ohio River on foot, by bicycle, or by car within minutes. Parking is available both along the waterfront and in downtown areas, where shops and restaurants are within walking distance of one another.

The River Ridge Commerce Center occupies the site of a former ammunition plant that produced gunpowder during World War II. Today companies use the expansive grounds for logistics and manufacturing, while some historic building structures remain visible throughout the area.
