Boyd & Van Leeuwens Second Plat

The grid here runs tight and walkable—you're steps from transit, a grocery, and restaurants that actually matter, with a dog park a short walk if your schedule permits. Midtown sits between downtown and the Medical Mile, which means a 5-minute drive to the core and 20 minutes to the airport if you need either. The area itself is dense with choice: 270 restaurants within a mile, 17 parks in the same radius, and enough local business to make a Saturday morning feel purposeful rather than errand-like. If you've lived in several places and chosen this one on purpose—not because it's trendy, but because the bones work—you already know what walkability at 8.6 actually means. Fitness scores a perfect 10, dining the same. The subdivision sits in Grand Rapids Public Schools territory, on three acres where lots average 0.72 acres each: modest, efficient, the kind of layout that lets you own land without maintaining a small county.
