GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

CIUDAD / VILLE= “CITY” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽 / FRENCH 🇫🇷

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today’s post is about a city you know well, Grand Rapids❕

Grand Rapids has become one of my favorite cities for multiple reasons.

I like walking around downtown especially at night when the weather is nice. All the bridges are beautifully lit and there is a good amount of art and other cool things to look at while walking around. I also like the food scene 😋.

One of my favorite things about the city is it reminds me of you❕

Here are some interesting facts about Grand Rapids:

	1.	Furniture City – Grand Rapids is known as the “Furniture City” because of its historical significance as a major hub for furniture manufacturing. Even today, many top furniture companies, like Steelcase and Herman Miller, have roots in the area.
	2.Gerald R. Ford’s Hometown – Grand Rapids is the birthplace of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th President of the United States. His presidential museum and burial site are both located in the city.
	4.	ArtPrize Festival – Grand Rapids hosts ArtPrize, one of the world’s largest public art competitions, attracting artists and visitors from around the globe.
	5.	The Grand River – The city is named after the Grand River, Michigan’s longest river. Efforts are underway to restore its historic rapids. (Nice❕)
	6.	Medical Innovation Hub – The city has a growing reputation in the healthcare industry, with top-tier medical research and hospitals like Spectrum Health and the Van Andel Institute.
	7.	First City to Fluoridate Water – In 1945, Grand Rapids became the first city in the world to add fluoride to its drinking water to help prevent tooth decay.
	8.	Close to Lake Michigan – While not directly on the lake, Grand Rapids is only about 30 miles from Lake Michigan, making it a great spot for beach lovers.

I like how the Grand River connects Lansing and Grand Rapids because it is the same river but different vibes when walking alongside it.
