Christmas Lighting Installation in Steubenville, OH

Steubenville leans all the way into Christmas. The Nutcracker Village has filled Fort Steuben Park and the downtown blocks with life-size nutcrackers every season since 2015. Our Christmas lighting is a full rental, built for people who want that look on their own house without owning or storing a thing.

We design the display for your roofline and yard, install commercial-grade lights in season, and come back to service anything that fails during the cold months. When the season ends we take it all down in January and store it until next year.

The Nutcracker Village is free and open around the clock in Fort Steuben Park. The Advent Market adds live entertainment, local artisans and hot food and drink every weekend in December.

Steubenville covers 10.63 square miles on the Western Allegheny Plateau, spreading west from the Ohio River floodplain to the hills around it. The climate is humid continental, with hot summers, relatively cold winters and rain or snow spread evenly through the year. On a hillside lot the house sits at a different height than on the flats by the river, and the digital mockup in the quote shows how the plan reads on yours.

Fort Steuben was built in 1786 and 1787 to protect government surveyors mapping the land west of the Ohio River, and the settlement that grew around it took the name Steubenville. The fort has been rebuilt on its original site on South Third Street, overlooking the river, in Fort Steuben Park. Next to it stands the First Federal Land Office, which still has its original logs from 1801.

Jefferson County was organized on July 29, 1797, and Bezaleel Wells and James Ross platted the town that same year. Steubenville was mostly a river port in the early nineteenth century, and it received a city charter in 1851. In 1856 a rolling mill, the forerunner of the steel mills, and a coal shaft opened, and the city lay on a railroad line that connected Pittsburgh to Chicago and St. Louis.

The North End Neighborhood Historic District follows North Fourth Street from Dock Street to Franklin Avenue, and the Steubenville Commercial Historic District lies around Washington, Court, Market and Third streets. The Market Street Bridge, listed in 2019, extends into Brooke County, West Virginia. More than 25 murals downtown earned the city its nickname, the City of Murals.
