message: Had to change the entry on Rod Schaub.  He wasn't the co-composer of the Happy Days theme song. He was a "sideman" in the band  "Pratt & McClain", whom had recorded the released single of the song.  They did not record the version actually used on TV, just a cover.  The song was written by Charles Fox and Norm Gimbel.

message: Once known as "Lumber queen of the World" not the Mid-west, damm it!
The city is nicknamed the "Port City", not "often nicknamed...".  Added "that once" to the many ships... comment.
The "Beer Tent Capital..." title is certainly an un-offical nickname, hence the "sardonically" comment added.
The Northern Exposure connection was via an Associate Producer of the show that had friends here in the area.  To say "the Producers" of NE would be an exagoration.
The Lakeside revolt was over a proposed steel mill that was to be located on the shore of Muskegon Lake in the Lakeside area.  It was kept out by an intense effort by the residents of Lakeside and various environmentalists.  The company (Northstar Steel) that wanted in eventually went bankrupt.  The fight ultimately prevented Muskegon from being home to another deserted industrial complex.  "Lakeside against the World" still sums up the feelings of many of the residents of this fine neighborhood.

message: Added a brief description of the "Harvey Street Corridor".  The separate mention of the Lakes Mall did not do justice to this rapidly expanding center of commerce.

message: . http://articles.latimes.com/2005/jun/17/business/fi-bowl17 The article said they were closing the bowling ball plant, moving it to Mexico, and that it would leave in place about 100 sales people.

thread_title: Brunswick as employer in Muskegon

message: The article currently states: "It is located at the southwest corner of Muskegon Township, but is administratively autonomous."  The City of Muskegon is not an administratively autonomous area of Muskegon Township.  The City of Muskegon is entirely separate, both administratively and geographically, from Muskegon Township. mdkarazim (talk) 16:44, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

message: I want to start this off with the fact that the image in question is of the Tallest building in the City. Not only that, but it's a noteable landmark in the City from what I know. If anyone from Muskegon can confirm, please let me know. Thanks!
