Ann Arbor (English Ann Arbor, /(ˌ)æn-ˈɑːrbər/), also Ann Arbor - a city in American state Michigan, center of Washtenaw County. It is the seventh most populous city in the state with a population of 114,110 according to the 2000 census, of which 32% (36,892) are students. Ann Arbor is famous as the city where the main campus of the University of Michigan is located, moved there from Detroit in 1837. Ann Arbor is home to the Detroit Observatory and the University of Michigan Art Museum.
The city was founded in 1824 by land speculators John Allen and Elisha Ramsey. They bought 640 acres (260 ha) of oak forest from the government for $800 and registered the land as Annarbour on May 25, 1824, probably in honor of their wives, who were also named Ann. Ann Arbor became a settlement of Washtenaw County in 1827, and was incorporated as a rural settlement in 1833. The Ann Arbor Land Group acquired 40 acres (16 ha) of raw land in the area, which was incorporated. In 1837, Ann Arbor received an offer to host the University of Michigan, which moved there in 1837. After the university moved, the history of the city became intertwined with the history of the university. The city became a regional transportation center in 1839 with the opening of the Michigan Central. railway. In 1878, north and south railroad tracks linked Ann Arbor to Toledo to the north and other markets to the south. During the 1840s and 1850s, many settlers arrived in the city. Mostly they were English origin, but there were never Germans, Irish or African Americans. In 1851, Ann Arbor was incorporated as a city. A slight decline in population occurred during the economic crisis of 1873. In the early 1880s, the city's population began to grow again with immigrants from Greece, Italy, Russia and Poland. There was significant growth in urban industry, especially milling. At the beginning of the 20th century, urban Jewish community, the first and oldest synagogue to date was founded in 1916. In the 1960s and 1970s. the city was considered an important center of liberal politics. It was also known as a center of leftist activity, with active movements for civil rights, against the Vietnam War, as well as student movements. The first student group rally for a democratic society took place in Ann Arbor in 1960; In 1965, the first protest against the Vietnam War took place in the city. Over the next 15 years, many counterculture and new-age businesses transformed the city's neighborhoods. Changes in municipal politics became visible in the early to mid-1970s, when three deputies from the Human Rights Party were elected to the city council (thanks to the student electorate). Thanks to them, the first anti-discrimination laws were issued, marijuana possession was decriminalized, and the rent control law was decriminalized. In addition to liberal and leftist movements, right-wing social movements emerged in Ann Arbor. Among them are “God’s...
The first time we came to this unusual town was at the end of October. At this time in Michigan it is time for golden autumn, something like mid-September in Central Russia.
According to local aborigines, there are only two such amazing, completely classic university towns in the States - Cambridge, which is part of Boston, and, accordingly, Ann Arbor. Moreover, in Cambridge the university is better, but the town itself is worse, but in Ann Arbor it’s the other way around.
I haven’t been to Cambridge, I have nothing to compare it with, but Ann Arbor captivated me at first sight: clean, two- or three-story streets, on the ground floors of which there are cafes and small restaurants and, of course, countless shops and shops. They sell absolutely everything, from equipment for dog sled trips in Alaska to luxury jewelry.
Cafes in Ann Arbor deserve special praise. They are all different, all not alike. Each has its own soul and its own visitors. The coffee in coffee shops is very good, but all sorts of buns and cakes, to my spoiled taste, are completely inedible. Naturally, people go to cafes not so much to drink coffee and snack on buns, but to get to know each other and the news. In some cafes you can listen to live music in the evenings, from flamenco to jazz. It is performed, as a rule, by amateurs - doctors, students and university teachers, just city residents, but they do it very soulfully and sincerely.
Once, on one of our visits, we had lunch at the Trees restaurant. In it, right in the hall where visitors dine, beer is brewed in huge barrels... and served... probably 20 varieties...
Well, the food accordingly... chops, lamb ribs, stew... with a mountain of vegetables, salads, French fries... The portion is designed for the average American, i.e. tasty, but oh-so-too much.
The University of Ann Arbor is a city in the center of the city, and all of Ann Arbor can be called a large campus. Very beautiful university buildings, made of red or white brick, and the walls and arches are covered with ivy - classic... and a beautiful university library building. By the way, anyone can use it. The library has a wonderful children's section. It contains books in huge shelves, sorted by age and subject, several computers with educational programs (“How does it work?”, “English in pictures”...), a large aquarium. For preschool children there is a separate large table, which is made in the form of a gable roof. Frames and supports for large wooden puzzles are built into the surface of the table. Both frames and puzzles have varying degrees of complexity - from 3 to 10-12 parts. The topics on them are very different - plants, animals, clothing, transport, the alphabet... There is also a separate corner for reading. There, sitting on sofa cushions that lie directly on the floor, preschool children read and look at pictures together with their parents.
I was also able to see the remains of what was previously called the Ardis publishing house. Books from this publishing house can still be found in bookstores, but they are already a rarity. At one time, many of our emigrant writers Nabokov, Dovlatov, Brodsky were published in Ardis... the list is large and impressive. Unfortunately, what is left of the publishing house now is a dirty gray three-story house with broken windows. Sad…
We looked into a luxurious bookstore from the Borders company. The store is huge, selling all kinds of printed products, and audio-video recordings. Unlike bookstores in Russia, the American Borders also served as a library. All departments have soft benches or large comfortable chairs. You can take any book from the shelves and sit comfortably in a chair and read. Books, including children's books, are quite expensive here and are considered a luxury item. Customers are offered to listen to audio and video recordings on special installations with headphones. And, again, an excellent children's section with low multi-colored tables and chairs.

On May 25, 1824, the platform "Ann's Gazebo" was registered here. The name symbolized a toponym that was used early in the city's history. There are different opinions about the origin of the city's name. But researchers have found that the founders of the city named this place in honor of their wives, both of whom were named Anne.
The landscape of this city alternates between the pomp and unceremoniousness of the streets. The city is decorated with the appearance of the Burton Memorial Tower and several buildings of the largest University of Michigan.

This city has become a large regional transport hub in 1839, after the Michigan Central Railroad opened here. And already in 1878, the railroad to the south and north connected Ann Arbor with the city of Toledo and many other cities. Between the forties and fifties of the 19th century, many settlers arrived in these places. Most of them were immigrants of English origin. And in 1851, Ann Arbor received official city status.

In the early eighties of the 19th century, the city's population began to grow again due to new immigrants from Russia, Greece, Poland and Italy. At the same time, there was a significant growth of the entire city industry, in particular milling.

On November 4, 2003, the so-called “green belt” plan was approved at a citywide referendum. The city authorities acquired land next to adjacent areas of promising construction to preserve them. Since then, there have been fierce discussions about reasonable limits for the city's growth. Every year, various media outlets publish a list that categorizes “ best places for life" in America.

Story
The city was founded in 1824 by land speculators John Allen and Elisha Ramsey. They purchased 640 acres (260 ha) of oak forest from the government for $800 and registered the land on May 25, 1824 as Annarbour- probably in honor of his wives, who were also named Anne.
Ann Arbor became a settlement of Washtenaw County in 1827, and was incorporated as a rural settlement in 1833. The Ann Arbor Land Group acquired 40 acres (16 ha) of raw land in the area, which was incorporated. In 1837, Ann Arbor received an offer to host the University of Michigan, which moved there in 1837.
After the university moved, the history of the city became intertwined with the history of the university. The city became a regional transportation center in 1839 with the opening of the Michigan Central Railroad. In 1878, north and south railroad tracks linked Ann Arbor to Toledo to the north and other markets to the south. During the 1840s and 1850s, many settlers arrived in the city. They were mostly of English descent, but there were never any Germans, Irish or African Americans. In 1851, Ann Arbor was incorporated as a city. A slight decline in population occurred during the economic crisis of 1873. In the early 1880s, the city's population began to grow again with immigrants from Greece, Italy, Russia and Poland. There was significant growth in urban industry, especially milling. At the beginning of the 20th century, the city's Jewish community strengthened significantly; the first and oldest synagogue to date was founded in 1916.
In the 1960s and 1970s. the city was considered an important center of liberal politics. It was also known as a center of leftist activity, active movements for civil rights, against the Vietnam War, as well as student movements. The first student group rally for a democratic society took place in Ann Arbor in 1960; In 1965, the first protest against the Vietnam War took place in the city. Over the next 15 years, many counterculture and new-age businesses transformed the city's neighborhoods. Changes in municipal politics became visible in the early to mid-1970s, when three deputies from the Human Rights Party were elected to the city council (thanks to the student electorate). Thanks to them, the first anti-discrimination laws were issued, marijuana possession was decriminalized, and the rent control law was decriminalized. In addition to liberal and leftist movements, right-wing social movements emerged in Ann Arbor. These include God's Word (established in 1967), a charismatic interfaith movement, and the Thomas Moe Law Center (established in 1999), engaged in religious-conservative propaganda.
In 1956, city residents voted to consolidate the city and surrounding areas into the Ann Arbor metropolitan area. In the last few decades, the density of development has led to a sharp increase in the cost of luxury housing, and there has been an increase in the size of the city, absorbing the surrounding countryside. On November 4, 2003, a referendum approved the “green belt” plan: the city government purchased land adjacent to the areas of prospective development to preserve them. Since then, there have been complex discussions about the limits of the city's growth. Every year, various media outlets publish a list ranking the “best places to live” in the United States; in 2008, Ann Arbor was ranked 27th out of 100 "Best Small Cities in America".
