In its heyday, Manistee was home to a booming logging industry.

In the late 19th century, Manistee was one of the leading [[Roof shingle|shingle]] manufacturing cities in the world, with over 30 shingle mills on the Manistee river at one time. During the lumber boom of the 1880s, Manistee was the headquarters of its own railroad, the [[Manistee and North-Eastern Railroad|Manistee and North-Eastern]], and had more millionaires per capita than anywhere else in the United States.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.visitmanisteecounty.com/manistee|title=Manistee – Manistee County Tourism – Manistee, Michigan|website=visitmanisteecounty.com|access-date=17 April 2018}}</ref>
