1992–2000
The town's nineteenth-century core was listed whole. The New Carlisle Historic District entered the National Register of Historic Places on 14 December 1992 (reference 92001653), on a nomination prepared by Glory-June Grieff in May 1992 and carried in the state's SHAARD record; the district is roughly bounded by Front, Arch, Chestnut and Bray streets, with Commerce as its area of significance and periods of significance running 1825–1949. The Jeremiah Service House at 302 East Michigan Street — better known as the Old Republic, built in 1860 — was listed separately on 15 March 2000 (reference 00000216), on a nomination by Dana Kopkowski of August 1999. The century's other closing beat belongs to the railroad: the South Shore's New Carlisle flag stop at Arch and Zigler Streets, open since about 1908, closed on 5 July 1994 in the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District's service revision, with Ambridge, Kemil Road, Willard Avenue, LaLumiere and Rolling Prairie (the South Bend Tribune, 17 June 1994). The town ended the twentieth century as it had spent most of it — 1,505 people in 2000, its district listed, its station gone.
