Happy Birthday

Six years ago, on June 12, 2003 International Metropolis was launched.

I found the image above, so don’t ask why there’s seven candles on the cake that says six… 🙂

A few stats on the site:

970 Posts

  • I have just recently discovered your site and I really enjoy it. I especially like the pics from the old days. And when I say old days, I mean the 1960's and before!

  • Happy Birthday! So, what do you think of that Victorian mansion with the several turrets being built at Victoria and Beale?

  • Whoops, bad time to clean the crumbs off my keyboard. I meant to add congratulations. Six years of consistent quality and great content have made this one of my favourite sites. I have learned a lot about local history from your efforts and from the feedback that inspires. Thanks!

  • Add a few more years if you want to count the Old-Detroit website, which is where I first met Andrew and his then new postcard/photo collection.

    Happy blogday!

  • 7 candles - 6 plus one for good luck.
