Rising Sun Indiana #5

This town was a major shipping center on the Ohio River, and there was a lot of industry here. Front Street now has some remaining businesses and a delightful River Walk. They have invested heavily in preserving and sharing the history of the town.

The walkway has bits of history embedded in it; these were donated by local businesses and individuals, as were most of the features along the walk.

This is the Casino's steam boat parked right behind the casino. The Casino now owns and operates a ferry which crosses back and forth across the river every 15 minutes, except in winter or other unfavorable conditions.
