Been here for 60 years. I was born here and will die here. It's cool seeing the old map but I was really hoping to see historical photos and video and/or pix of current places compared to the past. We also have interesting things like the grave of "the man with the branded hand", Hackley Park with the Civil War monuments, the grave of gangster Dutch Anderson (who was killed here in a shootout), the old artist colony where Buster Keaton (sp?) and others had summer homes, Hackley Library with the glass floor, the Indian cemetery, the intricate homes of lumber barons Hackley and Hume, the nautical museum next to an authentic docked WWII submarine, etc. I love my city and live in one of the oldest townships in the United States. Thanks for sharing the early history, though.
I am from Muskegon to, but I have question ....... Where is the big trees ??? And why so little trees, and trees what i see аll planted by people recently ?
Indians used to own it before Europeans arrival and they occupy it to this days. The lord said (well your lord) says the wages of sin per commandment # 7 say hell awaits unrepentant thieves. And that sole thought makes me justifiably.....very happy. Burb baby burn

The one thing really made the lumber industry take off was the “ Chicago Fire”.

Charles Hackley cut down most of the trees in Muskegon for lumber but then re planted them lol.
