Manhattan was incorporated in 1886. We are
an old and established community. Having its
roots in farming, the village has grown over
the last ten years to accommodate over 6000
people. Our forebears of German and Irish heritage
give expression in our early spring festival
Irish Fest.
One of the real advantages of living in Manhattan
is the ease with which everyone works together
to make our town better and better. The town's
caboose from the Norfolk and Western Railway
shows the fruits of the Historical Society,
Village, Township and Park Board working together
to get something done. This web site is another
testament to that, for through the Chamber of
Commerce's efforts, we are able to give visitors
a central place to learn about our area, and
allow residents to find answers to their questions
about what is going on in the area.
For residents and visitors alike, this web site
assembles most of what you need to know about
the Manhattan area.
