Edgewater Echo is a local online newspaper focused on the Edgewater community.

The Edgewater community has a strong history of local newspapers though none exist today. We chose the name “Edgewater Echo” based on an early newspaper of the same name from the 1920’s. The tagline of the earlier Edgewater Echo was “Printer’s ink, though dark, is the light of the world.”

Our hope is that the Edgewater Echo will strengthen our community through providing good news stories of what is happening around our great city. As our tag line reads, our desire is to tell the stories of Edgewater’s past, while looking to our future as a city.

The Edgewater Echo is published by Edgewater Collective, a local nonprofit committed to cultivating partnerships for thriving Edgewater neighborhoods, schools and businesses.
