History

The Mall of New Hampshire, on Manchester's southern fringe near the intersection of Interstates 93 and 293, is the city's main retail center. It was granted by Province of Massachusetts Bay in 1727 as Tyngstown to veterans of Queen Anne's War who served in 1703 under Captain William Tyng. The Amoskeag Manufacturing Company went out of business in 1935, although its red brick mills have been renovated for other uses. Incorporated as a city in 1846, Manchester would become home to the largest cotton mill in the world -- Mill No. It would be purchased in 1825 by entrepreneurs from Massachusetts, expanded to 3 mills in 1826, and then incorporated in 1831 as the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company.
