I went to Grand Rapids Michigan last summer.  It was a lot of fun.  It is about 30 minutes from Lake Michigan
Its is the second-largest city in Michigan, so it must have been quite fun!
We went to the John Ball Zoological Garden.  It is a really popular location and holds many unique animals
Nice, did you visit any historic furniture-manufacturing centers?
We did not.  But we went to Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park.  It had an amazing botanical garden
Did you go to any of the economically diverse areas in the city?
We did visit Heritage Hill.  It is one of the oldest residental locations in the city
Yes nearly every style of American architecture, from is available for viewing there!
