About Muskegon

Muskegon is a city located in the state of Michigan, on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. It has a rich history dating back to the Native American tribes who originally inhabited the area. The city's name is derived from the Ojibwe word "Masquigon," which means "marshy river or swamp." Muskegon's strategic location on the lake made it an important hub for trade and transportation, particularly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

One of the key industries that thrived in Muskegon was the shipping and freight transportation industry. The city's deep-water port allowed for the easy movement of goods and materials across the Great Lakes region. Muskegon was a major center for the lumber industry, with large quantities of timber being shipped from the city to other parts of the country. In fact, at one point, Muskegon was known as the "Lumber Queen of the World." The city also played a significant role in the transportation of coal and other resources, which fueled the growth of nearby industries.
