With a reputation as the furniture capital of the world, Grand Rapids revitalized its downtown area now teeming with arts and culture.

The French trader Louis Campau established a trading post in the area in 1826. Even though Louis Campau wasn't the first to pioneer the area, but he bought the downtown to convert it into business district of Grand Rapids in 1831. The exhibition in Philadelphia in 1876 paid off with success and Grand Rapids gained fame as a furniture producer.
In 10 years the city changed orientation with the construction of a hydro-electric plant in the area in 1881. But in the nation it is more famous as the first city to add fluoride to its drinking water, while on the world's cultural scene it is known for the first public art installation ever presented in the world.
Business became a draw card of the city that led to its population doubling at the turn of the century. With the new century it swelled from 82,565 to 197,800 residents. Among the city-native is also the 38th American President Gerald Ford whose life is the subject of a local museum.
Thanks to its cultural density Grand Rapids swapped the furniture business for tourism. The area of the modern city was left almost totally deforested to feed the former business, but today Grand Rapids jumped on the bandwagon of antipollution and entered the new millennium with a revitalized downtown and a construction boom. Besides the construction of the Van Andel Arena, Grand Rapids saw numerous hotels built in the area and you can find and book them at Booked.net.
