Never attacked by Indians, it was abandoned in 1878.[citation needed] The city grew rapidly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a result of the Rock Island railroad which went through town.
In 1951, an oil refinery was built on the north edge of town which also helped the local economy until it was closed in the late 1980s.[citation needed] TAMKO Building Products is now the largest manufacturer in the city.[citation needed] In 2007, an ethanol plant was built at the east side of Phillipsburg.[citation needed]
