 History
Cadillac Yesterday
Cadillac has a long and interesting history. Cadillac is the largest City in Wexford
County originally named by Native Americans as “Kautawabet” meaning “Broken
Tooth”, after a Potawatamie chief who signed the Great Peace Treaty of 1825. Cadillac
was first organized in 1872 by George Mitchell (a lumber baron) and was named Clam
Lake Village. The county seat, however, was in the village of Sherman, although
Manton briefly held the honor. In 1882 there was a political dispute to change the location
of the county seat. A group of politicians thought to change the name of Clam Lake Village to Cadillac, after Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, an early
Michigan explorer and founder of Detroit. Changing the name tricked the legislators and Cadillac became the “new” county seat. Lumber was the
prime industry in the late 1800s. The population grew to about 10,000. There were four main families that helped to settle Cadillac. They were
Mitchell, Cummer, Diggens and Cobb. These names are prevalent throughout Cadillac; streets, buildings and other landmarks are named after
them. Cadillac was one of the few non-river lumbering communities that grew and prospered. The main reason for this was due to the invention
of the Shay Locomotive, invented and constructed in Cadillac by Ephraim Shay. The Shay was instrumental in the success of the logging industry
because of its ability to climb steep mountain grades effortlessly and to maneuver sharp turns and imperfections in the track. Until the invention of
the Shay Locomotive horses were used to transport the logs. This was a slow, costly and often dangerous process. Cadillac is fortunate to have
a restored Shay Locomotive displayed at the City Park. Another historic landmark in Cadillac and the success of the logging industry in Cadillac is
the Clam Lake Canal. In 1873 a canal was constructed connecting Big and Little Clam Lakes (Lake Mitchell and Lake Cadillac). Connecting the
two lakes enabled logging from the west side of Lake Mitchell possible by floating the logs through the canal into Lake Cadillac and on to town
reaching the railroad. One of the most interesting facts about the canal is in winter the canal freezes first but once the lakes freeze over the canal
opens up and does not freeze again until the next winter.

 Downtown Cadillac
Cadillac’s Lakeside District is located just up the hill
from the City Park, the Rotary pavilion and the mile long
Keith McKellop Lakefront Walkway, and just down the
hill from lumber baron homes, the museum, the post
office, tidy neighborhoods and churches...the downtown
business district defines the Cadillac “sense of place.”

Downtown Cadillac is a bustling, vibrant strollable,

walkable, people place with unique shops, gathering
places in distinctly different restaurants, gaslights,
graceful trees, a uniquely patterned brick walkway,
restored facades and gentle curving pocket parks that
lead to the city park and lakefront.
