The bluff here rises sharp and sudden—a 160-foot climb that puts you above the city before you've finished your coffee. Streets twist upward through older brick and clapboard homes, and when you reach the overlook, Grand Rapids spreads below you like something you're not supposed to see from a neighborhood. Highland Park sits right across the way, and the neighborhood's topography means those staircases everyone mentions aren't a gimmick—they're just how you live here.
