A Review by grandrapidslocalhistory - ”Hidden History of Grand Rapids” by Matthew A. Ellis

Matthew A. Ellis' new book barely scratches the surface of unseen history in Grand Rapids. We discuss Matt's favorite section, potential sculptures for Calder Plaza, and wonder what you might have in the basement.

Old Buildings Around Town

How Islands Became 201 Market

We'll zipline back into the past to explore the future. Islands in the Grand River became useful land for the City, baseball fans, and thrifty shoppers but we don't quite know what the future holds.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
