Settled in the 1790s, New Castle became the county seat when Henry County was established in 1798.
Located in the center of the county, New Castle [†] was incorporated in 1817 and is the County Seat of Government. Being the county seat for Henry County, New Castle has a high proportion of public type land use, particularly around the courthouse in the downtown area. Intermixed with the local governmental offices is downtown commercial development. The balance of city is low and high-density residential development. There is limited undeveloped land within the city limits available for future development. Infill development downtown can accommodate commercial development pressures and small areas of vacant land are available for additional single family and multi-family residential development.
