East Liverpool, Industrial riverfront city in eastern Ohio, United States
East Liverpool is a city positioned where three states meet – Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia – stretching along the Ohio River's banks. The town is shaped by its riverside setting, with areas like Broadway Wharf providing water access and parks supporting local recreation.
The city began as a small settlement in 1798 and transformed into a pottery manufacturing center after James Bennett built the first kiln in 1839. This industrial focus shaped urban growth and economic life for generations.
The Museum of Ceramics displays work created by potters who lived and worked here, helping visitors understand how central this craft was to daily labor and community identity. The exhibitions connect everyday objects with the stories of the artisans who made them.
Thompson Park serves as the main recreation hub with sports facilities, picnic areas, and direct river access through Broadway Wharf. Visitors should note that river access varies with the season and weather conditions.
Along the Ohio-Pennsylvania border sits a historic marker called the Point of Beginning, which marks the first surveyor's point established by the 1785 Land Ordinance. This location became the reference point for surveying and dividing territory across the expanding nation.
