History
Originally known as Antioch, New Hope incorporated in 1974 to avoid an annexation attempt by South Pittsburg, which most of the new city’s residents opposed. The name “New Hope” was taken from a local church and cemetery. It is located on the eastern shore of the Tennessee River at the Alabama/Tennessee state line. Early settlers and travelers reached New Hope from the western shore by the South Pittsburg Ferry (called “Sharon”) on the river until the construction of the Shelby Rhinehart Bridge (Blue Bridge) in 1981.
