Manchester is the state's commercial and industrial leader, as well as its largest city and the home of nearly 10 percent of its population. The city first gained national fame in the 1800s as the home of the massive textile mill of the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company.Nearly 5 million yards of cloth were shipped weekly from the textile mill, which employed thousands of workers and covered more than 8 million square feet. The mill thrived until the 1920s, when competition from southern mills and obsolete technology took their toll. Manchester rebuilt itself as a commercial and industrial center by diversifying industries. Today it is home to a melting pot of high tech companies, banks, business services enterprises, retailers, manufacturers and health care professionals. The city is also the focal point of the state's cultural community and home to many of the region's eight colleges and universities. 
Cultural institutions such as the Currier Gallery of Art and Palace Theatre join with the new Verizon Wireless Arena and outdoor concert venues to attract world-class performers and exhibits to the city. Performances, exhibits, classes, workshops and lectures are offered to the general public at many of the area's institutions of higher education.Manchester City Offices: Manchester City Hall City Hall Plaza, One City Hall Plaza Hours: 8:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday - Friday Mayor: Honorable Frank C.
