1990s
- 1990"The world's most advanced cold-rolled steel finishing mill": the industrial superlatives
The ground's one percent-of-the-world class superlative is a sentence spoken by company officials to a magazine in 1990.
- 1990–2026Basketball whole: the sectional roll settled in part, and the coaching line to April 2026
New Prairie's girls' sectional championships stand in 1990, in 2000 — a title the IHSAA's own regional preview recorded as breaking a drought back to that 1990 championship — and in 2024, won under head coach Aimee Litka at 20–6, reported in April 2026 as the program's first sectional championship since 2000.
- 1990–2026The modern layer: steel at the edge, and what is arriving
Its first monuments are the steel plants of the town's industrial park country: I/N Tek, completed in 1990, and I/N Kote, completed in 1991, the joint-venture coating lines whose arrival the district-era record already noted as the town's modern industrial note, and whose corporate course stands in the businesses and spine legs.
- 1991–2026The marshal's department — from the ordinance book to Marshal Croymans
The ordinance record opens the modern course: Town Code Chapter 98, with its fee schedule for "police, case, or other Marshal's Department reports" ($5 per copy), traces to Ordinance 819 of 17 December 1991, and a Cumulative Non-Reverting Law Enforcement Training Fund stands from 1996.
- 1991–2026The community foundation: the county's pooled vehicle, and the New Carlisle fund test
The foundation, seated in South Bend (EIN 23-7365930), is carried in the secondary record at a 1991 founding (its directory listings) and at an establishment in 1992 (the philanthropy press, updated July 2024); the two tellings print side by side, unmerged, the settler being the foundation's own charter record.
- 1991–todayBroadcast: WUBU, 102.3 FM — the station licensed to New Carlisle — and the South Bend–Elkhart signals that serve the town
The broadcast test returns the opposite of the television test: no television station is licensed to New Carlisle in the records reached — but a full commercial FM station is, and has been since 1991.
- 1992The New Carlisle Historic District: twenty-four acres on a hundred-foot street
The nomination, measuring the street as it found it in 1992, records it at forty-five feet, and notes that even so it "is wider than the town's other streets."
- 1992–2000The historic district and the late-century town
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…

- 1994–2026The defining closings, gathered: a flag stop, a paper, a schoolhouse, a pause
The flag stop, 1994: the South Shore's flag stop at New Carlisle ended — the railroad that had stopped here since the interurban age stopped stopping, and the corridor's passenger age closed with it (the transportation leg carries it).
