The Oshkosh Northwestern is a daily newspaper based in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
The Northwestern was owned by the Schwalm and Heaney families until 1998, when it was sold to Ogden Newspapers; Ogden traded the paper to Thomson Newspapers two months later for four papers in Ohio and Pennsylvania.[1] It has been part of the Gannett chain of newspapers since 2000, when it was purchased from Thomson Corporation.[2]
The Northwestern is primarily distributed in Winnebago, Waushara, and Green Lake counties.
History[]
For the forty years preceding establishment of the newspaper's name as Oshkosh Northwestern in 1979, the newspaper was known as the Oshkosh Daily Northwestern.[3]
Building[]
The building for the newspaper was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 13, 1982. It is a significant example of 1930 Renaissance architecture.
In 2017 the building was purchased by Oshkosh Business Center III LLC.[4]
