Newburyport (18,500) is a vibrant coastal community rich in natural beauty as well as gracious Federalist architecture built with the whaling and clipper ship fortunes of this prolific 19th century seaport. The city is very proud of its history. The first tea party in opposition to England's tax on tea was held in Newburyport, well before the more famous one in Boston. We are pleased to be the birthplace of the United States Coast Guard. The first ship commissioned for the Coast Guard, the frigate Massachusetts, was built in the City. Protective of its heritage, the City launched a massive redevelopment scheme in the early 1960s, using state and federal funds to reclaim its historic neighborhoods of granite, brick and cobblestones and provide up-to-date infrastructure such as water and sewer renovations. Today Newburyport is thriving with local retailers, vibrant restaurants, a performing arts center, and various festivals, activities and events. Located conveniently just off exit 56 of Interstate 95, the Newburyport Business and Industry Park is a job center for the regional and the headquarters of several diversified industries. The City has a strong tourist industry, high performing schools, and pristine beaches. Located at the mouth of the Merrimack River, it is a center for recreational boating and is the home to several marinas and yacht clubs. The MBTA’s commuter rail station and several regional bus companies offer easy commuting to and from the City. In 2012, Newburyport was honored to be named the 14th Coast Guard City in the US. This designation recognizes the significant role that the City plays, both historically and presently, in supporting the efforts of the men and women of the United States Coast Guard.
