The Manhattan was the first steamship built for the Guion Line. She was fitted for accommodation of 72 first class and 800 second class passengers. The steerage berths were all on the main-deck. She also had capacity to carry 1000 tons of coal and 1500 tons of cargo. Her engines and hull were designed by John Jordan of Liverpool. The cylinders were 60in. in diameter and 42in. stroke. The Manhattan was soon followed by 2 identical sisters, the Chicago and the Minnesota.
