History

Early history

Jasper County Courthouse.

Newton was founded in 1846 as Newton City, the name was changed to Newton in 1847 and Newton was incorporated as a city in 1857. Jasper and Newton were believed to be American War Soldiers and common to have the names together.[7] In the late 19th century, Newton's growth was fueled by the development of coal mines in the region. The first significant mine in the area was the Couch mine of the Jasper County Coal and Railway Company, opened in the 1870s. It was, for a while, the largest mine in the county, producing 70 tons per day. William Snooks opened a mine near Newton in 1886.[8] In the early 20th century, large scale mining in the Newton area had declined, but there were still several mines in the area that were worked intermittently.[9]

Maytag and the era of growth

In the 20th century, Newton was a manufacturing community, much of its growth derived from the washing machine industry. Its most distinctive landmark, the Jasper County Courthouse, was built in 1911.

Newton entered the national stage in 1938 when martial law was declared during a strike at the Maytag Washing Machine Company. Iowa governor Nelson Kraschel ordered the Iowa National Guard to protect the company with tanks and machine guns ready against the workers. With the backing of four troops (companies) of the 113th Cavalry Regiment,[10] Maytag company beat the strike and forced workers to return to work with a 10% pay cut.

At the conclusion of World War II, the Maytag Washing Machine Company expanded its operations in Newton, becoming the Maytag Corporation. Known for its dependable line of washing machines and clothes dryers, the company later persuaded the town of Newton to change the name of its headquarters address in the city to "One Dependability Square."[11] In 2001, a decision to cut labor costs resulted in a reduction of the labor force at the Newton plant in favor of newer Maytag facilities in Mexico.[12] Layoffs at the Newton plant continued through 2005. Whirlpool's acquisition of Maytag in early 2006 led to speculation over the future of Maytag operations in Newton. On May 10, 2006, Whirlpool announced that it would close the Newton plant and corporate offices in the fall of 2007. The plant employed about 1,000 workers and the corporate offices employed about 800 at the time of the announcement.

In January 2007, Whirlpool said in a statement that it sold most of the Maytag headquarters complex to Iowa Telecommunications Services Inc., a Newton-based telephone company which would use the complex to consolidate employees in a single location.

Although the company did not disclose financial details, Newton economic development officials said Iowa Telecom paid $1.5 million for the buildings assessed at more than $12 million.[13] The Maytag plant officially ended production on October 25, 2007.[14]

"Newton's future" and the rebound after Maytag

After Maytag announced its departure, community leaders and City administration worked together to develop a plan to diversify Newton's economy.[15] After the Maytag plant closed, unemployment skyrocketed—rising to almost 10%. In 2010, Jasper County had the highest unemployment rate of Iowa's 99 counties at 8.2%. However, in the following years, the unemployment rate dropped considerably—down to 5.4% in 2013.[16] More impressively, Newton's population did not drop following the departure of Maytag. Newton has had a steady population of about 15,000 since the 1960s.

Between 2007 and 2017, thirteen new companies have located here and have created over 2,000 new jobs.[17] The following companies have started in or moved to Newton: Underwriter's Laboratory, Trinity Structural Towers, TPI Composites, Aueron, Walter G. Anderson, the Iowa Speedway, Health Enterprises, Engineered Plastics Company, Pact Manufacturing, Advanced Wheel Sales, and Hawkeye Stages.[18][19]

Phoenix Investors LLC, out of Milwaukee, acquired the former Maytag Manufacturing buildings in 2015 and have been making the space tenant ready by investing in improvements. The 1.8 million square foot facility is now 60 percent occupied.[17]

Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) is the owner of the former Maytag corporate campus, now known as Legacy Plaza, after receiving the buildings as a gift in the fall of 2016 from Reza Kargarzadeh. Legacy Plaza contains eight buildings dating back to the early 1900s. DMACC has been upgrading parts of the campus and is leasing space in this facility located just two blocks from Newton's downtown square. Current tenants include Compass Mortgage, DMACC Business Resources, Thombert, Aureon, Numbers and Letters, Gezellig Brewing Company, The Cellar Peanut Pub, CIRAS, Iowa Lean Consortium, Aerocare, Sequoia Fitness and Edward Jones.[20]

Green manufacturing and sustainability

One of the industrial sectors Newton has attracted in recent years is green manufacturing.[15] In December 2007, TPI Composites announced plans to open a plant to manufacture massive wind turbine blades, which are now in production.[21] Today, TPI Composites employs over 1,100 people and has expanded its operations by 100,000 square feet as they began manufacturing composite bus bodies with Proterra.[22]

Additionally, Trinity Structural Towers, a company which manufactures wind turbine towers, opened in 2008.[23] President Barack Obama visited the Trinity Structural Towers plant on April 22, 2009, that year's Earth Day.[24] While at the factory in Newton, the President said that he traveled to the factory to usher in "a new era of energy exploration in America."[23][25]

Global Fiberglass has leased over 100,000 square feet in the former Maytag manufacturing plant. They plan to take down wind turbines across the Midwest that have been decommissioned and will grind up the fiberglass.[17]

Newton was awarded the National Sustainable Community of the Year Award (Small City Category) by Siemens and the US Chamber of Commerce in 2010 for its successful, pro-active approach to recovery.[26]

Newton's future: a comprehensive plan

In 2012, the Newton City Council passed "Newton's Future: A Comprehensive Plan."[18] The Comprehensive Plan was written with the input of Newton citizens and reflects the community's goals for the future; the top goals identified in the plan were to (1) Grow Newton's population, specifically targeting young families, (2) Increase employment opportunities, (3) Improve the City's curb appeal, and (4) Fill vacant buildings and increase local shopping options.[18]

Each summer, Newton hosts the Bowlful of Blues, a blues festival at the Maytag Bowl featuring renowned blues artists from across the county such as John Primer, Walter Trout, Shaun Murphy, Willie Kent, and others.[30]

Additionally, the City of Newton puts on free weekly concerts at the Maytag Bowl throughout the summer in an event called "Concerts at the Bowl."[31] This event features local bands of all genres. The Newton City Band, a full concert band composed of Newton citizens, also performs at this event.[31]

In February 2014, Newton was selected to take part in the Main Street Iowa program, which is a coordinating program for the Main Street America program and part of the Iowa Economic Development Authority. The Main Street Iowa program works with a select group of communities committed to exceptionally high standards for downtown economic development. Newton Main Street is a 501(c)3 organization with a goal of economic development within the context of historic preservation. In September 2014, Newton's downtown was designated to the National Register of Historic Places.[33] The directional boundaries for Newton's historic Downtown Business District are as far east as East 4th Street and as far west as West 3rd Street. The northern boundary is just north of North 2nd Avenue and the southern boundary is the alley south of First Avenue. The district has 87 properties within it and the downtown historic preservation district lies entirely within the Newton Main Street's district.

The Fred Maytag Park Historic District, which includes Maytag Bowl, Maytag Park and Maytag Pool, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in November 2010.

Newton has several places listed on the National Register of Historic Places including the Thomas Arthur House, August H. Bergman House, Emerson Hough Elementary School, the Jasper County Courthouse, and St. Stephen's Episcopal Church.

In 1919 E.H. Maytag, the son of Maytag Appliance company founder F.L. Maytag, purchased a single Holstein cow to provide fresh clean milk to his children.[37] Upon E.H.’s death in 1940, his sons Fred and Robert Maytag assumed leadership of the farms and Fred pursued his idea of creating a uniquely American blue cheese made from cow's milk. Maytag Dairy Farms collaborated with Iowa State University to pioneer the first great American blue cheese that could compete with classic European cheeses such as Roquefort made from sheep's milk. The cheese plant and caves were completed a year later and the first wheels of Maytag Blue Cheese were formed in October 1941. 77 years after Fred made the first wheels Maytag Blue Cheese the leadership of the company is transitioning to his grandchildren—the great-grandchildren of E.H. Maytag.[37]

Newton has two historic movie theaters that are still in operation. The Valle Drive in is one of four drive-in theaters still in operation in Iowa. The Valle Drive in is the oldest of all of these theaters, having opened in 1948.[38] The Capitol II Theater is located in the historic downtown district of Newton and has been in operation since April 1927; originally operating as a vaudeville theater.[39]
