1001 Lake Drive Condominium
Walkable near top schools
Walkability 8.1/10·Schools 4.0/10
The address itself tells you something: a condo community built around proximity rather than isolation. You're steps from restaurants—all three hundred and twenty-five of them within a mile—and steps from transit, coffee, and groceries. Hosken Park is literally adjacent, and twenty parks cluster within a mile if you get restless. The walkability score of eight-point-one reflects the actual geography here: errands are doable on foot, dining is a ten out of ten (no car required), and fitness amenities are within reach. Downtown Grand Rapids is four and a half minutes away, which means you're close enough to the city without being in it.
