Discover Northport
Northport lies on the Black Warrior River across from downtown Tuscaloosa. The area near the falls was a dense canebrake that Creek and Choctaw treated as neutral ground, and in 1785 the two nations fought a fierce two-day battle here. Settlers began arriving in 1816, and in the 1820s work began on Byler Road, Alabama's first public road, which opened northwest Alabama to settlement and brought cotton to the riverbank.
More about Northport
Warehouses for cotton stood near the river as early as 1824, and cotton hauled down Byler Road was loaded onto steamboats bound for markets around the world. On April 3, 1865, Union cavalry under General John T. Croxton entered Northport, where the Methodist church bell rang a warning. About a dozen old men and boys of the Home Guard under 53-year-old Captain Benjamin F. Eddins tried to hold the covered bridge to Tuscaloosa, tearing up 30 feet of its floor as they retreated; Eddins was mortally wounded, and the raiders burned the bridge two days later. Northport was incorporated in 1871. A cotton warehouse moved east of the new Mobile and Ohio trestle in 1897 was destroyed by a tornado on March 21, 1932, rebuilt, and operated until the 1970s.
