Located in Michigan just 10 miles North of the Ohio border. Hudson was
settled in 1833 and established as a City by act of State Legislature in 1893.
Hudson has been very fortunate in its architecture. The entire downtown of
Hudson was designated by the U.S. Dept. of Interior National Park Service as a
Historic Place and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in the
late 1970's. The city also has six residential homes that are on the National
Historic Register, several beautiful historic churches, a Carnegie library, a
historic railroad bridge, and a historical museum.
