Cities the world over have complicated and conflicting relationships with the bodies of water on which they were built — at once drawing life and commerce from them, while battling their floods, pollution, and the ghosts of industries and peoples past. Evansville is no different. While the great flood of 1937 is almost 90 years behind us, it lives on in legend, lore, and the shared history and memory of our community.

Area homeowners still cleaning up debris from January’s ice storm are making an unpleasant discovery: tree damage. As questions mount — can the tree be saved? Does it need pruning?

Today’s Evansville Living prioritizes the same local-centric content it did 25 years ago. But the process behind putting together a print magazine? “Change” doesn’t even begin to describe what’s occurred. Shooting photos on film, for example, went the way of the dinosaur – it’s all digital now. Drones allow photographers to shoot from above, without frightful climbs up rickety ladders. Electronic communication has eliminated all sorts of steps required 25 years ago.

151 is the number of covers Evansville Living has produced in 25 years, including this issue. Designing the best cover for each issue takes a lot of work and often takes us to some interesting places. One example is our second cover, which posed Harrison High School graduates and pro basketball teammates Calbert Cheaney and Walter McCarty on the revered hardwood at the now-called TD Garden, where the pair then played for the Celtics.

The way family and friends clamor for Vicki Schmitt’s carrot cakes, you’d think she runs a craveworthy catering business. The mother of two and grandmother of four smiles: “I just enjoy baking.”Schmitt had worked for one month at the organization now known as the Evansville Regional Economic Partnership when in 2012 she was tasked with ordering food for a quarterly advisory board meeting and decided to make a cake.

Picture Evansville in early 2000.Although Y2K hysteria proved unfounded, we were on the cusp of big cultural changes. Email was in its infancy, chat rooms were the rage, and social media — who had heard of that? If we had news to share, we mailed a letter. If we wanted to meet a friend at the Casino Aztar riverboat, we picked up the phone and called them. We swapped stories over plates of schnitzel at Gerst Bavarian Haus, then a new West Side restaurant.
Our Bend In The River

Without this bend in the Ohio River, there would be no Evansville. It has defined the geographical and commercial aspects of our city, and since its inception, our magazine.

Some of our city’s biggest moments were shaped by this river, and it continues to define our trajectory.
