Daily Dearborn Trivia: Feb. 20

Show us what you know–take a guess at our Dearborn question of the day.

So you think you know Dearborn, huh?

When it was founded, who it's named for, all the mayors, what the city is known for–there's a lot of facts about our town.

The Daily Dearborn Trivia will test your knowledge of our city, from historic facts to which high school won a big game last week. Think you know the answer? Chime in with a comment. Then come back the next day to see if you got it right.

Today's question: How many works of art are currently displayed around Dearborn as part of the Midwest Sculpture Initiative?

Feb. 17 trivia answer: The Bryant Branch Library was originally named the Mason Branch, but was renamed after Katherine Wright Bryant in 1977.

Hasn't even worked one day? Not one day in 15 years? Really? Not even credit for one day? When IRead More worked at the Press & Guide (which eliminated my position in a budget restructuring that has continued under various corporate owners at the P&G for a decade and a half, resulting in them moving their offices to Southgate and more recently just out-and-out eliminating their editor, sports editor and photographer) we had a policy of no anonymous letters to the editor. This was done because, while everyone has the right to express their opinion, putting a real name with an opinion meant people displayed more decorum and, well, less cowardice than is allowed in online comments from the shadows. Joseph, the benefit of post-employment health care after just eight years of service may have, in the early 1990s, been more acceptable in some way I can't figure (retention of key department heads has been cited as a reason, as was that it apparently mirrored a benefit for state officials), but it clearly was part of the excesses of Wayne County that was unjustifiable and unsustainable in the 2000s. This practice was ended two years ago by a resolution I introduced.
