[cityofmetropolis]

Metropolis was founded in 1634 by Dutch settlers, prospering in trade for its natural coastal harbor. The first settlement was by Dutchman Paul De Vries being called De Vires Village now known as the Old City in Queensland Park. In 1783, the first Metropolitan Bank was opened by P Randall Jeffries, that which still exists today. The mid-1800s saw the Hob's Bay area of the city grow as a merchant center. The large influx of Irish immigrants during this time rose tensions with the second generation citizens of Metropolis, leading to the well-known Hob's Bay Riots. Metropolis would prosper during the Industrial Revolution with the founding of The Steel Works. Today, Metropolis is known as the City of Tomorrow, a nickname adopted from our innovation and our hopes for the future.
