I thought we should pay homage to the western part of the state. Sorry for a Monday photo instead of Saturday but the holidays have a tendency to consume time!
Take a look at the photograph entitled “Grand Rapids: 1908“:
Grand Rapids, Michigan, circa 1908. “Canal Street from corner of Monroe.” Merchants vying for your trade include The Giant, Idlehour and People’s Credit Clothing Co. 8×10 glass negative, Detroit Publishing Company.

About Jeffrey S. Buck
I'm currently a Project Manager at Cypress Partners, LLC in Bloomfield Hills, Mich. I graduated from Wayne State University in 2008 with a B.A. in Journalism. Looking to broaden my view of the world, I spent a semester abroad studying at the University of Salford, a Greater Manchester University in England. I enjoy doing an array of activities, including following Detroit sports teams, SCUBA diving, traveling, reading, playing tennis, hand-written letters and going to the movies.
I am the co-founder of the Woodward Spine, a blog about Detroit and its surrounding communities. The Woodward Spine aims to inform its readers about relevant news and events through creative and informative posts in these core areas: news, opinion, entertainment, history, sports and development. The Woodward Spine serves the tri-county metro Detroit area, concentrating mainly on the communities that lie along the Woodward corridor.
