Manhattan, Nevada, United States


๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Manhattan is an unincorporated town in Nye County, Nevada, located at the end of Nevada State Route 377, about 50 miles (80ย km) north of Tonopah, the county seat.

It originally was founded in 1867 as part of the silver mining boom. George Wheeler found the district abandoned in 1871. Then, in 1905, as part of the gold boom, "4,000 people flood(ed) into the region". The Nye and Ormsby County Bank, the only stone structure to be built in the town, was erected in 1906, but a decline followed the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and the 1907 depression. The bank was forced to close.

In 1904, "Mom" Ronzone first started selling socks to Manhattan miners, the beginning of a retail career that would result in Ronzone's department stores in Tonopah, then Las Vegas.

Another boom in 1909 resulted in mining continuing into the late 1940s. Major mining operations opened and operated through the 1970s to the 1990s, but production has recently scaled back significantly.

There are two bars, The Miner's Saloon and The Manhattan Bar and Motel.

Within about 10 miles (16ย km) north along State Route 376 active placer gold mining is taking place on a small scale.
