For millennia; people have gathered at the rapids of the Grand River; the place where downtown Grand Rapids now stands. From its earliest recorded history in the 1820s as a tiny frontier trading post; through many booming decades as the �Furniture City;� to its newest reinvention as a center of public art; Grand Rapids has a fascinating history. By 1850; when the city was incorporated; several early industries; including logging; milling; and brewing; were already established; and the groundwork for the incredibly lucrative furniture industry was in place. As more people came to Grand Rapids from all over the world; they developed institutions and settled the city�s distinctive neighborhoods; each reflecting their nationalities; religions; and aspirations for the future. Throughout its history; from Campau to Calder; Grand Rapids has remained a place for pioneers.
