Grand Rapids sits on the Grand River in west Michigan, a city built on furniture making and remade around art, gardens, and beer. The furniture trade gave the city its nickname, Furniture City, and that craft tradition still shows in its workshops and design shops. Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park pairs indoor gardens with an outdoor sculpture collection, drawing visitors in every season. Downtown, the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum honors the president who grew up in the city, and the Grand River runs past bridges, trails, and a growing riverfront.
