The town was known by several names including Wells Ferry (1722-1747), Canbys Ferry (1748-1764), and Coryells Ferry from 1765 until 1790 when a fire destroyed several large mills in the town. The mills were rebuilt and were called the "New Hope Mills" and the village took its name from that. The Delaware Canal runs through New Hope, and there is also a train station which is part of the New Hope and Ivyland Railroad. Mule-pulled barge rides are given on the canal. New Hope is also home to the Bucks County Playhouse, built in a 1780s mill, which is the "official" State Theater of Pennsylvania. During the early part of the 20th century, New Hope was home to a well-known artist colony. Today it is home to many tourist-oriented novelty shops. New Hope contains one of the five oldest inns in the United States, built in 1722. The town was also recently voted to be the 5th "Top Art City Destination" in the U.S., according to American Style Magazine's readers. 22 http://www.newhopechamber.com http://www.livingartsofnewhope.com http://www.amanogalleries.com http://www.aftertheride.com http://www.namesakestudio.com http://www.escarestaurant.com http://www.newhopeleather.com http://Memories.com http://Pets.com http://www.fredeisenleather.com http://www.artknives.com http://www.teardropmemories.com http://www.jonathanricecollection.com http://www.landingrestaurant.com
