The northward flowing Fox River is the lifeblood of two of Wisconsin’s most prosperous cities: Neenah and Menasha. Named after the Indian words Neenah meaning “clear water” and Menashay meaning “settlement on the island,” these cities offer the perfect combination of small town atmosphere with an urban flare. Explore these “twin cities” and you will find unparalleled shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities, cleverly interspersed with parks, trails, and nature preserves. As you travel the streets and trails toward the waterfront, your surroundings transform into a nautical paradise, complete with lighthouses, marinas, wharfs, and dockside restaurants. From the window shopper to the seafaring sailor, Neenah and Menasha have something for everyone. In Neenah and Menasha, you can nearly envision the pathway of history opening up to the prosperity of today. Since the mid-1800’s, the water power of the Fox River has brought industrial strength to the region. Today, Neenah and Menasha remain at the heart of the nation’s paper industry and boast several Fortune 500 companies. The historic waterfront mansions of yesterday’s industry giants live on today as museums, glamorous homes, and sightseeing wonders. Century-old landmarks such as Neenah’s Shattuck Park are being revitalized into contemporary recreational, cultural, and economic focal points.
