  1. Cuidate y que te disfrutes en Mexico... If, in the next week, Google, Toyota, the United Nations, and the NBA all decide to relocate to GR, we'll be sure to send a telegram, Wishing You Were Here...
  2. St. George Greek Orthodox Church, Grand Rapids, MI
  3. My hard-drive kicked the bucket this weekend and with it a few hundred photos for which I wasn't smart enough to create back-up copies. Sad story. I guess it's about time to replenish the archives... In the meantime, here's one of the few I did have backed-up. Look at all that green!
  4. I found a flyer requesting works from local artists to decorate the walls of a new "Piquant Cafe." No address is given, but it says the cafe is scheduled to open in Grand Rapids in February. The phone number for more information has a 949 area code -- southern CA. Anyone heard about this?
  5. I almost feel guilty using so much of UP's bandwidth. For forgiveness maybe I'll buy a UP indulgence and turn my screen name a pretty color like PBJ or twoshort...
  6. Or perhaps circles around dingy Calvin College basements?
  7. Apparently I'm not excited enough! They wouldn't allow me to donate blood today because my blood pressure is too low. I'm instructed to run around, drink caffiene, read the grbj, and come back tomorrow. They love my O-neg.
  8. A. Herkner Jewelers B. McKay Tower C. Pantlind Hotel
  9. Apartment building on Jefferson, just south of Fulton.
  10. I love this game! Keep 'em coming. I'm guessing Front Street for this one...
  11. Absolutely. Sponsored in part by the West Michigan Chiropractic Association...
  12. So I'm not the only one with that problem! Great night shots Zissou.
  13. I haven't had the time to go out and get new shots, but I feel guilty being such a lackluster forumer as of late. So, I'll be recycling a few old favorites from time to time. River City Building
  14. Fun gargoyle fact: These guys are carved from urethane foam.
  15. I don't know how I missed them before, but how long has Eastown had those orange e! sidewalk directories? Is that a new "Eastown" sign in front of Weathly Street Grill too?
  16. Ok, I was wondering what that crown was made out of. Nice photo, wolverine.
  17. Dadof, you beat me to it! I was just thinking about getting some updated photos of Clear Water Place... Anyway, great shots. The building is looking great! I'm glad they were able to salvage the roof tiles.
  18. Welcome to West Michigan Taurean! Sorry to hear about your rude experience. I suppose there's a few ignorant jerks in all places... And its too bad you have to be here to sample this horrible weather! If you get the chance, be sure to check out downtown. The sky doesn't seem nearly as grey when ice skating at Rosa Parks Circle.
  19. I was wondering the same thing: http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=19429 Perhaps a Dubai native can shed some light for us?
  20. I suppose I'm a year too late, but I just saw "The Polar Express" ther other day. I knew Chris Van Allsburg was a West Michigan native, but I didn't realize the film specifically mentions Grand Rapids. "Herpolsheimers!"
