Each day I drive Alpine past the malls near I-96.  Perkins Restaurant has one of the largest American flags flying today.  Another big one is on Alpine near Four Mile.  They are big, but not as big as the one that used to fly outside Classic Chevrolet on 28th street before the dealership closed.  Where would we find the largest US flag in west Michigan.

By the way, just for the record, the Guiness World Records says on the 25th of November 2007 the largest flag with a total area of 202,823.55 square feet was unfurled at Masada Airfield, . The location was chosen very carefully - between two other record locations: the Dead Sea on the Israel-Jordan border (the lowest exposed body of water on Earth, at 400 m (1,312 ft) below sea level) and Masada, where, according to the historian Flavius Josephues (c.37-100), some 960 Jewish zealots committed suicide by cutting each others' throats during a siege by the Romans in AD 73, thus resulting in the largest mass suicide of ancient times.
