Ann Arbor was established in 1823 by two couples, and, in 1824 became the seat of Washtenaw County. In 1833, it was founded as a village, and, in 1851, it went on to become a city. Alongside this transition, Ann Arbor’s population grew and so too did its reputation as a business travel hub. Other important developments at this time include the opening of the Kempf House Museum and the establishment of the University Of Michigan Medical School. This period is also marked by the arrival of the Michigan Central Railroad to Ann Arbor.
