Newport’s historic districts feature houses and commercial properties with diverse pasts. They are more than their silent facades — they hold the lives of families who raised children here and worked nearby. Many celebrated and faced challenges, thrived and survived, and all shaped Newport’s future. The Buena Vista neighborhood is in west Newport, Kentucky, and the families who settled here were among Newport’s earliest. Each laid down a legacy, contributing to one larger than the individual parts, and this greater history still shapes Newport.
