DYING CITY, SHMYING CITY



Back in January, as part of a content sharing deal, Newsweek posted mainstreet.com's list of America's "dying cities" on their website. On this list? Well, among other cities, Grand Rapids, Michigan.

So, what do you do if you're a proud Grand Rapids native, outraged by Newsweek's accusation? If it were me, I'd probably storm around my house screaming, "WHAT?! BUT WE PRODUCE SO MUCH OFFICE FURNITURE!"

But, thankfully, it's not me.... because I'm from New Jersey... and because the much-more-creative-than-me residents of Grand Rapids took to the streets and outdid themselves with the video above. So, apologies, Grand Rapids. Neither Newsweek nor I will ever question you again.
