It began as great accomplishments of females across the country.  Then, their stories are captured in a book for children.  Finally, the pages of the book come alive in Grand Rapids, painted on outdoor utility boxes.  Downtown Grand Rapids Inc. spearheaded this project…finding funding, gaining city approvals, selecting artists and physically prepping the boxes.  Author, Kate Schatz, includes many bold, visionary women whose names will be recognized by many, but also introduces you to women you might not have heard of.  Join the hunt for the 27 pieces of urban artwork on almost every intersection of downtown Grand Rapids.

Architecture of Downtown Grand Rapids…Part One

We invent cities.  We create streets and we construct buildings. Whether the structures are historic, brand new, a combination of both, or a glimpse into our future, they provide a creative portrayal of our collective story of our “place”, our built environment.  No one architectural style is more important than another…they are all invaluable pages in our city’s scrapbook.  Each building tells a story as we physically move through time.  Part One includes buildings prior to Urban Renewal.
