Coke Otto Traditional Cache

I little cache in a small town with a big industrial history.

New Miami is a small village sitting north of Hamilton, Ohio. Originally known as Coke Otto, Otto or Kokotto for its large coal field and steel mill. Its unique southern like culture is created by the large amount of Appalachian decedents. New Miami is known for the large amount of bars and churches located with in its borders. Also within this small community a handful of small businesses that holds Hollywood like fame to the locals. The United Coke and Gas Company built a number of Otto-Hoffman type coke ovens circa 1905 for the Hamilton Otto Coke Company. The coke plant covered about 50 acres (200,000 m2) with a battery of 120 coke ovens, thus New Miami was referred to as Coke Otto. The property was purchased in 1937 by The American Rolling Mill Company which changed its name to ARMCO in 1948. New Miami was incorporated as a Village in 1929. Today the whole mill all is gone!
